Eminem is the best catcher I've ever seen

I guess Stassi will be the odd man out when McCann returns. Also, I hope it’s Tucker,not White, who gets sent down with the Altuve activation.

I was impressed by the orange in the stands at O. Co yesterday. I was hated by every fan around me yesterday, but that's what happens when As pitching gives up four bombs to the visiting team and it's my first time in the stadium.

As fans have a great tailgate thing going though. Unfortunately it is a really shitty baseball stadium. The new stadium, wherever it gets built, is going to be a revenue boon.

Stros hit 5 HR’s and it was glorious.

[Gourmand 7774]

Damn that's right, I forgot about Marwin going deep.

Prefer to send Will Harris to the DL instead.

It’s great being an Astros fan in Georgia, so I can get force-fed the Cards-Dodgers on MLB TV. Like I give a rip about either of them. 

[Honeysucklerose 991]

Starting pitching getting tired

[Lat22 4030]

Remember when Marwin homered? That was cool. 

[Gut Wagon 8097]

Top of the Seattle order has been playing tee ball with our starters lately. That clearly can’t continue. 

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

Marwin has stepped the fuck up.

[Scraps 13585]

Correa has not

[Honeysucklerose 991]

Carlos blows right now

[Gut Wagon 8097]

Felix does what CC can’t: get the runner in from third. 

[Victor Lazlo 1780]

Finally scoring some runs again.  

Nice to see Marwin heating up. 

We’re going to get back on track. 

[Scraps 13585]

Damn...think we barely got him in time

[tx 3 putt 77650]

damn nice play there by machete and cole 

[Honeysucklerose 991]

And I reiterate, Caros sucks

He doesn't suck, but he isn't playing well at the moment.

[Honeysucklerose 991]

He doesn't suck, but he isn't playing well at the moment.

Fine. Sucks, right now.

[tx 3 putt 77650]

if you're not hitting the ball you better have a damn good glove 

[Fudge Nuggets 19240]

Pressly has been an awful acquisition.

I know it’s a small sample size, but maybe you will reevaluate after looking at his numbers. 

He has been far from awful.

You are right, my bad.  Just seems every time I see him pitch he gives up runs that we can’t afford to be giving up.  The Haniger shit was just ridiculous.  Two outs, runner on third, guy that has been absolutely destroying us up to bat and he fucking grooves one.

[UTHornFan014 710]

Not liking the look of this one. You can't gift them a hit like that...

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

Fuck. 

[Honeysucklerose 991]

So 5 in a row now head to head for them??

[UTHornFan014 710]

Shitfuck

[Victor Lazlo 1780]

Well, FUCK. 

[elfenix 34364]

goddamnit

[UTexasFight 9567]

A’s tonight do what you’re supposed to to a washed up former ace
We do not.

Was going to say we need to steal one here late, but then Cano does that.

Goodnight

[David Dennison 18993]

We're pretty good every fourth or fifth game.

Dammit.

[Chuckie Finster 22759]

If I had to guess the number of home runs Cano has hit against us in his career, I think I would settle somewhere around 200.

The bullpen was the one part of the team that was playing well. Now we’re 0fer
