Did cuzzi say “fuck me?! Fuck you!!”?!

Diaz doing all he can

[David Dennison 18946]

Thank you, Dusty. Thank you so very, very much.

[WBT 20661]

Buenos Diaz bitches!

[Honeysucklerose 990]

Dude. Freaking play him. PLAY HIM YOU IDIOT

[tx 3 putt 77376]

Diaz earning two days off, all that running around the bases can wear out a man 

[Mo Horn 8854]

23 HRs. Think how many he'd have if he was our full time catcher

[Dutchrudder 11150]

Diaz now has 1/3 of the team's hits tonight

You sick Dusty’s dick incessantly. Tell your dude.

Every time he hits a HR I hate Dusty even more. 

[WBT 20661]

That was rather crushed

Of course?  They've sucked more than we have the last 2 weeks.

[UTexasFight 9527]

Diaz now alone in 3rd in the AL for  home runs by rookies.

Henderson - 27 (140 games played)

Casas - 24 (132 games played)

Diaz - 23 (98 games played)

 

thanks for the lost draft pick, Dusty.

"Of course" in the context of our current predicament.

[Scraps 13570]

This team is like Britney Spears level disaster....still alive, but fucking barely functioning

[hornmpa96 2620]

This sucks 

[runthebone 8035]

What a shit show.  8 fucking runs already

[UTexasFight 9527]

After watching this O’s the last two years and the Astros for the last 8, it’s like high draft picks matter.

Spoke too soon.

[WBT 20661]

So is Urquidy just broken now?

Some regression for the pitching staff was inevitable but I wonder if we're starting to miss Strommy a year on.

[tx 3 putt 77376]

Welp

Maldy has 15 ? So he’d have at least 10 more

Me thinks we are done here tonight. I'm heading on vacation for the next 2 1/2 out of the country so will see scores but won't follow any games. By the time I get back the season will be over as well as the wild cards. Hopefully we can get hot and go on a run. If not tonight will be the last Astros game I'll see this year. I'll leave it in your hands Surly. 

I leave next week for 2-1/2 weeks out of the country as well.  Doesn’t look like we’ll miss anything.

Yeah. I’m sure we are. 

[Planet Houston 4930]

I just don’t get this team. Sigh

[Rimbo 26059]

[WBT 20661]

Unless Brantley's shoulder is unattached again, he should ph for Peña here.  And if it is, Meyers probably should.

Alas.

[Mitch Hedberg 2090]

We could always bring in DFA acquisition Joel Kuhnel to pitch or maybe we would prefer the 4 time DFA stalwart Bennet Sousa. Our pen is worked.

We just aren't all that good this year, and haven't been. Between the old players getting injured, the young players regressing, some questionable management and rule changes that absolutely affected our strategy (limiting the shift), we're just a shadow of the team we were last year.

We might trip our way into the playoffs this year, if only because the rest of our division seems to be unable to seal the deal, but we aren't scaring anyone.

[UTexasFight 9527]

We’re slumping at a bad time. 
thankfully so are Texas and Seattle.

hopefully we pull it together and something like a 7-3 or 8-2 L10 to finish the season.

but the pitching is going to be a real problem in October. I‘m not sure how this staff can pull out 11 wins, especially if 4 have to be against the Braves offense. Pray someone gets hot for 3 games and takes them out in the LDS

Yeah, I'm just gonna go ahead and enjoy first place while I can.

[WBT 20661]

Sousa huh?  Why not just let Urquidy finish it?

Whatever

He’s a lefty.

Dubon is such an idiot

[Guadaloopy 11013]

Nice hustle, Peña.  

[Dutchrudder 11150]

Fucking run through the guy and knock him on his ass!  That's his fault for being in the baseline!!!

[UTexasFight 9527]

Sure. Bring in the lefty.

Abreu about to be up in a tie game

3 pitchers this inning and the tying run hasn't even come to the plate 

[David Dennison 18946]

Perfect ending.
