I hear ya but the problem is at some point, in order to actually get to the playoffs, we have to actually have to field the Houston Astros and not the Sugarland Space Cowboys. 
Infield of Bregman, Pena, Kessinger, dubon/singleton

and OF of Loperfido, Meyers, Cabbage is not going get it done no matter how shitty the M’s offense is

and yes, I know Altuve being out for any extended period of time would force the hand of making meaningful moves but that’s just that much more you’re depleting your system for the future  

I'm not sure Altuve being out would force anything when we have Dubon.

Heyoooo

[Bender Bending Rodriguez 1662]

Make of it what you will. Looks like the wrist. Hard to tell the damage, of course

Post of the night!

[runthebone 7894]

Contreras, you dumbass.  You get two outs then hit Correa.

[tx 3 putt 75473]

That’s a catch !!!!!

[Limp Brisket 541]

Wow!!!

[Hornsbay22 452]

Really should send Joey down, he is losing value each AB.    

 

Jake with  3 95+

[cabowabo 4390]

Unbelievable catch. And if Pressly was warmed up, why the fuck don’t we just bring him in?

[David Dennison 17797]

You can be none more out.

[WBT 20253]

First off, he caught it.

Second, it couldn't be a dp if he didn't because as soon as Singleton caught it with his foot on the bag, the batter/runner would be out and the runner has the option to return to 1st base.

Edit - Nm, I thought the batter/runner never made it to 1st.  Still wouldn't matter because he passed the runner.

That's one of the coolest things I've ever seen.

[Limp Brisket 541]

How the fuck is that ruled a no catch initially?

[Hornsbay22 452]

Joey was pumped loved seeing that.....now trade his ass.

if the ball touches the wall out of the glove, no catch 

[Overlord 366]

Well, that'll get J-Lo a shout out by legs girl on Quick Pitch. 

[Gut Wagon 8037]

What. A. Play. You won't see many betters by anyone. 

[Mitch Hedberg 2088]

Loperfido has made two of the best catches of the year. Drives in runs. Now stop striking out!!

[David Dennison 17797]

Yeah, there's gonna be a fight this series.

[HtownHorn 14337]

That pitcher needs to get tossed. When you hit 3 batters with 3 different pitchers, it's fucking intentiional.

[Storm the Field 5255]

Getting real fucking tired of the HBP.

[BrickTop 474]

Funderburk huh?

[HtownHorn 14337]

Dubon's swing reminds me of Connor Rowe, with that back foot flailing.

[cabowabo 4390]

Somebody better get hit in the B9. 

[dr99 551]

Salazar has balls at least

Then you’re forced to start 3 of singleton , looerfido, Chas or cabbage every game until Tucker gets back 

[HtownHorn 14337]

There is our new leadoff hitter.

[BrickTop 474]

Lol fuck Funderburk and the Twins

[Storm the Field 5255]

Bregman says "should have HBP me!"

[tx 3 putt 75473]

Pour it on them 

[Mitch Hedberg 2088]

Bregs!

 

[BrickTop 474]

They hit Yordan his bat is gonna be used like a caveman’s club

[texashorne 1177]

FUCK YEAH BREGGY

[HtownHorn 14337]

Espada with the smartest decision he has made all year. Tucker is gone, Altuve may be gone, get him the fuck out of the game when you are winning 13-5.

[Mitch Hedberg 2088]

We can hit two or three now!

[BrickTop 474]

Somebody needs to eat a fastball

Miranda, let Contreras drill him with a FB. I miss the days when our pitchers didn't take this shit.

[kevwun 15300]

Dusty would have definitely had them nail someone.

It’s the only reason I’m gonna watch the bottom of the 9th tonight.

[Storm the Field 5255]

Bregman just passed Springer for 6th most HR in an Astros uniform. That was #175. 

Altuve has 222 for 5th, one shy of Jimmy Wynn.

Our pitchers shouldn't even need the manager to make that decision. Go fucking protect your team and the opposing team knew it was coming.

Edited July 6 by HtownHorn

[Scraps 13485]

To drill or not to drill...that is the question

[HtownHorn 14337]

Lulz, Minnesota took out Miranda because they knew he was getting drilled.

[BrickTop 474]

Drill Miranda

Shit NVm

[Gut Wagon 8037]

Don't plunk this guy. We want him in left field tomorrow and Sunday. 

[BrickTop 474]

I mean have some balls hit someone, shit

They only broke our legend.

[Rip76 4881]

Clear dugouts now.

This guy is getting it

I don't think anyone is getting it.

Just get the out and lets go
