Walking a pitcher who is trying to give you a free out is not optimal

[rvm96 1643]

Did he just walk the pitcher? 

[Gourmand 7774]

Cmthfuckon Framber

[HtownHorn 14468]

Can't be walking the fucking pitcher on 4 pitches.

[runthebone 7931]

Good job walking the fucking pitcher

[clapclapclap 9000]

Well crap, just turned it on, saw orange score, and thought, "Awesome!"

Wait, we don't have a pitcher named Gausman.

Oh.

That should be a fine.

[WBT 20410]

Fucking walks.  Framber needs to get that back under control between now and the playoffs

retired first 7 batters, then walked 3 in this inning including the 8 and 9 hitters.

astros made gausman throw 40+ pitches in the first and get the bullpen up, and now he's cruising.

get it fucking together.

In like a month, Framber has gone from my undisputed Playoff Game 1 starter to “can we even trust him in the playoffs?”

if he's not looking right in sept, you make odorizzi/javier your sp4.

[WBT 20410]

whoa, I don't know about that

[Scraps 13538]

Not sure how he stayed on ump

[YChang 3430]

Nope… damn it, what a shitty throw

[Gourmand 7774]

Can't overturn that one

[Smax 3800]

[Scraps 13538]

Agreed

[Gourmand 7774]

Little man bomb

[YChang 3430]

[rvm96 1643]

Altuve loves a high pitch 

 

[Gourmand 7774]

BOOOOO

BOOOOOOOOOO

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

YAH MFERS!!!

[WBT 20410]

That was Gattisesque

[Mo Horn 8806]

Tuve went up and got that one

[Rimbo 25766]

So, off-topic... sorta.

I only just now realized that if we're playing the Gnats and the Doyers, that means we're also gonna play the Padres. Which means they'll be in town. And they'll be in town the first weekend of September.

Any fellow SD peeps want to grab tickets with me? @sdhornesq? I'm bringing the kids. Not sure what day we'll do, but it'll probably be Sat or Sun since my son has marching on Friday nights.

I feel like he has struggled quite a bit since the crackdown on the sticky stuff

ANYWAY... we got tickets for Sunday the 5th(?) so see ya there.

[clapclapclap 9000]

Tatis is on pace to have broken a leg and lost a kidney by then.

[WBT 20410]

Why are we pinch hitting Robel and not Chas with 2 runners on?

[Gourmand 7774]

Great at bat Robel Garcia. Take a bow.

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

That's just as embarrassing as Frabber walking the pitcher. 

[Scraps 13538]

Chas is going to come in for Yordan at some point

Dusty is probably keeping him available to substitute defensively later in the game for Yordan

Probably so but that is probably the biggest pinch hit AB that there will be.  Robel could come in later and Diaz could move to LF.  Not the best OF defense but I still think that AB was too important to give to Robel.  Maybe we should have sent up Greinke to ph.  

[WBT 20410]

Tuve!!

[runthebone 7931]

Two hangers.

 

That's why you never throw him a fastball, ladies.

[Scraps 13538]

Beast mode engaged

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

Boo that motherfuckers

[Gourmand 7774]

BOO THAT MOTHERFUCKERS!!!

[rvm96 1643]

Altuve for PRESIDENT!
