Dusty gonna Dusty. 
We went from the smartest organization in baseball to the dumbest over the last 5 years  

[runthebone 8380]

I mean, sure, these games don't count.  Dusty.  You fucking failure of a playoff manager.

[Mitch Hedberg 2117]

Bregman hitting .196 .359 slugging and .705 ops since Sept 15. He really needs to snap out of it.

Abreu is the whipping boy but he’s at .259avg .539 slugging and .818 ops. He’s had some big hits and hits for power lately even with the strikeouts. Tucker has same average, fewer HR but higher OPS due to the run of triples lately. Bregman hasn’t pissed a drop of any kind. 
Maldy hitting .236, slugging .484 and .778 ops as comparison. 
Peña hitting .286 slugging .336 with .642 ops. He has become a Punch and Judy hitter for some reason. Our odds will go up significantly if Pena and Bregman can contribute something.

We already know we are getting Mashitty/Diaz combo today.....we gonna get Dubon in for Chas too aren't we? 

Yippee

Also i am OK with Dubon getting a run, but not at the expense of Chas. Mashitty on the bench, Diaz starting C, Yordan DH and Chas/Dubon in OF i could live with for game 3.

We will not see that the entire playoffs. Time to just get over it.

Analytics 

dubon should have been in there game 1 

 

surly experts don’t care about numbers that goes against their group think

I’m much more concerned about Javier throwing first pitch strikes

Who just called into 790 saying chas was the key to todays game ?

😂😂😂

[tx 3 putt 78787]

We could have a AAA line up, fuck it let’s win this game

OF course- we should by all means deflect from Dusty's shitty lineups, right?

First 5 or so innings tomorrow will be a bitch though

You are assuming the Orioles pull their heads out of their asses. If they lose our game is at 6pm tomorrow

Arbitrary time frame and short sample that means absolutely nothing.

In a 162 game season, yes 

In a 3 game season, no

Dubey 0 AB as an Astro in the playoffs?

Analytics but only when Dusty wants them. Selectively to bench players he doesn’t like

[Scraps 13813]

Arod just said the team who wins the first 5 innings will win because the shadows will be in play in the last 3?

Did i hear that dumbass right?

Wut?

Lets go boys!!!! 

[Guest]

That was just a great pitch to Bregman on Strike 3.

Yordan with a great hit to follow up though.

This team isn’t going anywhere unless bregman and Tucker wake up 

 Maybe abreu can contribute something ?

I'd just like to see Abreu make a contribution by running a ground ball out.

Hopefully he'll take advantage of his day off today.

Edit: Abreu doesn't have day off.  Shit

Edited October 10, 2023 by Overlord

[Macklemore 2946]

Great piece of hitting Yordan!

[Rockethorn1978 6206]

Bregman is just lost. Alvarez isn’t..

[Macklemore 2946]

King Tuck!!

[wood 11775]

Wow wtf, that's not an error. That's a double. Fuckers.

[HtownHorn 15235]

You got to think FB opposite field. Then you are ready for the slow stuff.

Yeah, that didn't touch his glove.

[Smax 3800]

Boom

[wood 11775]

Abreu!

[Rockethorn1978 6206]

Abreau!!!!! Finally!

[Mo Horn 8943]

Nice little start 

[Js1 87305]

I literally love road games

[HtownHorn 15235]

$18M HR from Abreu.

[Rip76 5022]

Wow!!

Well I'll be goddamned!

Why run a ground ball out when you can jog around the bases.

[Horn80 6362]

Astros!  4-0

[Macklemore 2946]

Wow Abreu!! Thank you!

[HornOnTheBayou 9069]

That's weird. I thought the shadows meant the Astros wouldn't be able to hit.

[Mitch Hedberg 2117]

Abreu! I felt that coming! Just won $20 😂😂🤘🏻

[Guest]

You knew Yainer wasn't getting a hit.  Baseball gods insisted upon it.

[HOOKEM4 5200]

That was perfect, AJ saying he hits the curve well, then boom.

Go Stros!

[HtownHorn 15235]

Javier has to put up a zero.

[TexArcher 39079]

Fuck yeah, Abreu.

Welcome to the party, pal!!

[UTHornFan014 755]

Why in the world do they throw offspeed pitches to Abreu? I would throw inside fastballs non-stop to him

With that said... I am glad they did throw him an offspeed pitch

[kevwun 16449]

I wish I had a button that would let me shock the broadcast crew every time once of them says Waino.

[Rockethorn1978 6206]

We need abreu to come alive moving forward and do what we signed him to do and that’s drop bombs.
