Of the guys available today … Who should pitch 9th on the road, tied game ?

Top of the ninth, two guys on, do you get Hader ready or go with your guy ?

Hader is ready, do you sit him or bring in someone else ?

 

lot to go through. IMO if you get Hader up and he’s ready, you bring him in instead of sitting him 

I hate Chas McCormick batting in the 9th way more than Hader pitching in the 9th.

Four more years.

We're good at contracting.

Now I know why Correa and Springer didn’t get long term deals. And why Tuck won’t get one either. Maybe management is smarter than I thought.

Ronel Blanco fucked out of making the AS team it looks like

This one actually pisses me off. He’s our team MVP to this point in the season IMO. He’s a great story and absolutely deserves it on the numbers.

Yep. He should have been in over Ragans.

I get the whole need player from each team, but KC had Lugo and Salvy already so that doesn't even factor into that

Almost

8 in 39 appearances

 

He gave up 3 all of last year.

the 8 matches the total he gave up for all of 2022.

He’s on pace to match the 15 he gave up in 2019.

The Astros need to moneywhip whoever the Padres pitching coach is. That dude made Blake Snell into a Cy Young winner and Hader into the best closer in baseball last year. He might know a thing or two more than this Astros staff.

Sucks he didn’t get named tonight, but will quite surprised if he’s not on the roster come this time next week 

and at the end of the day no one counts if a guy was named an all star out of the gate or a replacement

Astros-Marlins probables:

Tues: RHP Ronel Blanco (8-3, 2.53) vs. LHP Trevor Rogers (1-9, 4.91)

Wednesday: LHP Framber Valdez (7-5, 3.84) vs. TBA (bullpen)

Thursday: TBA vs. RHP Roddery Muñoz (1-3, 5.48)

Let blanco goto 9-3 !

I get it, but it pisses me off that mattress Mack wears that dumbass hat but dares to have a house in the Austin area. Go build a castle in BCS if you want to rep those losers. Nooo, you come to my hood and do awesome fireworks shows then peddle your sleep sacks with that loser hat on.

Good thing we have Hader to close it out

 

Still was a mistake to leave Blanco in after the HR

Single at 111 on a high slider

Out 1 on a good pitch

Fortunate to get GIDP on a shitty middle middle slider


9-3 >>> 8-3 

Hopefully he’s rested until that first game vs the Mariners
