His eye on some pitches has been less than discerning.  It HAS been a strength of his, but suddenly it's a liability.

They need to put Yordan on the IL for as long as it takes.  He’s not helping them win hitting an occasional single.  His power is completely gone and they need it back in the playoffs.

100% this.

As shitty as the last 2 games feel, they were just saying on the Giants pregame show that Houston's rotation is unbelievable and they think we're the best team in baseball.

 

Obviously not shaggy followers

Yep, and that would also give them a chance to call up someone from AAA like Yanier Diaz or Brinson and see what they can do

Holy shit

Robinson Chirinos is still in the league?

Yep ... and according to Brandon Hyde, a huge contributor (along with Odor) helping all of the youngsters while building team chemistry.  Coaches on the field?  Silly example ... the O's have a chain that's hung around the neck of a guy hitting a home run.  Chirinos does the honor along with a big hug.  It's not unlike celebrations in every baseball dugout.  Jordan Lyles gets credit, too.  Hyde and the other starters frequently mention his leadership.  Bottom line ... veterans teaching kids how to play and have fun while learning ... and there's more to come.  I'm reliving the mid-2010's Astros.

Does he need rest or surgery ?

Amputation. 
 

there are actual dogs in my season ticket section. This is a new one for me as before they’d always been 1 section over. Kids are loving it. Then they get to run the bases today which they’ve never done. Pretty nice little Sunday afternoon.

28 pitches.  Thanks, Pena.

Once Rutschman got a clean hit, the ball Mullins hit will be reversed to a single.  No losing a potential no hitter on the first play of the game.

Jim Palmer said he’d bet the official scorer never tried to field a “torched 107mph short hop.”

This is 2018 all over again. Beat up team heading into the playoffs and it didn't have to be this way.

Although wining this game is among the least of our concerns, I'm still annoyed that Dusty didn't have Dubon sacrifice. The kid isn't hitting but is a decent bunter. Plus, Maldy has a fighting chance to hit a sac fly. Of course, maybe by then JV's problem was apparent and Dusty figured it will take us seven runs to win today.

Well, this is the worst series of the year without a doubt. 
Forearm discomfort pretty much code for TJ what- 9 out of 10? 
fuckity fuck fuck fuck.

Never seen him pitch live before, Seth Martínez is now one of my favorites. He works very fast. Ready to get the sign and pitch in about 7-8 seconds. He had to step off because of sign confusion and start over once last inning and it was still only 16 seconds between pitches.

Whitley can take his spot on the playoff roster 

 

4 innings 2 runs 1 BB and 7 K’s in a game SL gave up 15- so he did his job. 2 times in a row. Start the countdown to promotion clock with one more good appearance.
