2022 Houston Astros Thread

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19142]

Damn it 

[Wulaw Horn 19152]

I don’t believe Dusty filled out the lineup card- having Diaz do such a shifty AB when we have one guy who had put up some quality AB’s. I will take some from satisfaction at the end of the year when be it Dusty or Click that fucked that up gets handed their walking papers. Fuck them fuck them fuck them. 

[Dark Horse 2291]

Zero clutch

[MirrOlure 14839]

Goddammit

[cabowabo 4514]

What a waste.  

[Dnaguy 12059]

Can McCormick hit anything but a fastball?

[Planet Houston 4930]

Sigh

Fuk u Diaz. Worthless 

The only person more worthless is the one who put him in the lineup to be worthless

[Macklemore 2874]

Awful. We need to a damn run and should have bunted and played small ball

[TexArcher 38063]

Leadoff doubles have to score.  They just have to.  God dammit.

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1549]

let's pinch hit for David Hensley! 

Javier will need to shutout for Houston to have a chance.  Only hope is a Breg HR.

bottom of lineup is trash.  Good news though is Nola isn't a god, we can hit him.

No

[HtownHorn 14777]

Fucking entire right side of the infield is open and these stupid mother fuckers trying to pull it.

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Our offense sucks dick. And Dusty’s lineup decision to play Diaz doesn’t help at all.

[Dnaguy 12059]

How is this lineup legal? I thought abortions were illegal now.

[VirginiaLonghorn 4781]

That inning was doomed when Vazquez HBP .. deadwood after him.

[cabowabo 4514]

I knew we were fucked when he hit Vasquez. 

[Victorious1 163]

Astros coming up to the plate guessing instead of hitting.  Not going to win games looking at pitches over the middle and swinging at garbage off the plate.

[Dnaguy 12059]

No

Oh ok. I hope no one figures that out!

That could really be bad for us.

[rvm96 1643]

On the bright side the lineup got turned over to Altuve to lead off next inning.

All the luck is on the Phillies side. Don’t think it goes back to Houston 

[Smax 3800]

Can't have missed opportunities like that

[utxmike05 1828]

Mfer!! 
Wish vazquez had a chance to hit

It's not luck to have 3 shitty ABs after the double. It's just Dusty's shitty lineups.

[Guadaloopy 11013]

That hurt.   Amazing how bad Diaz is right now.

Can you keep the doom and gloom at bay until it’s warranted. We’re going to fucking win here and flip the script

[cabowabo 4514]

Strike 4. 

[MirrOlure 14839]

Vazquez kinda sucks at catching

[Brisketexan 105332]

That hurt.   Amazing how bad Diaz is right now.  

Those were two really shitty ABs. Goddammit.

[Planet Houston 4930]

That is some bullshit

[Guadaloopy 11013]

HPU costing us a K there on two pitches.  

[Tommy Nobis 905]

On the bright side the lineup got turned over to Altuve to lead off next inning. 

You say that like he’s batting.300 in the playoffs lol

[Dnaguy 12059]

Harper getting every fucking call.

Dude doesn’t need help.

Fuck these umps hard.

But I guess this is what hitting looks like

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19142]

So ball 3 on Harper was actually a strike.  Fuck that.

[Hate 20145]

Those were two really shitty ABs. Goddammit.

It’s like they don’t have a plan at the plate. They don’t seem to be sitting on a pitch ever. It’s all reactive.

[Macklemore 2874]

That’s a strikeout. Fuck yes. Let’s get a DP here.

I'm a 3/4 glass empty person but am optimistic tonight because we've got the power pitcher on the mound and we know Nola can be had.  I'm not optimistic with JV tomorrow at all, zero.

[TexArcher 38063]

Javier's slider is naaaasty.

Let's go!!

This reeks of the stubborn summer run with Meyers  when everyone could see he was colder than liquid nitrogen.

I have less of an issue with ball 1.  That third ball was egregious.

Goddammit.  Not a great throw.

[Rip76 4947]

Hold these MF’ers 

[Dnaguy 12059]

So frustrating. Every throw. Every swing is labor for Astros.

Phillies lose as fucj

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1549]

since Hensley, Vasquesz, Machete are better hitters than Diaz/Dubon/Mancini, why not play 2 of the 3 of the first group at all times?  It's ok to have one C at DH, don't be scared. 

Please Javier go 8.  Please. 

I see a Breg HR soon. 

Edited November 3, 2022 by Make em eat Taco Bell

[elfenix 34332]

Only 2 extra pitches but an extra batter

[Macklemore 2874]

Javier shutting up that crowd. Let’s put up a crooked number.

[TexArcher 38063]

Good job, Javier!!

Let's get him a lead now, pls...

I would still rather to have him up to bat than not. 

[Macklemore 2874]

Qatar’s stadium looks a vagina.
