for a lineup with 4 great righty hitters, our lineup always seems shittier against lefties.

it can't just be a josh reddick thing, right?

[Honeysucklerose 990]

This must be our concede the winning streak lineup

[henrygandorf 29191]

this ump has early dinner plans.

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

Let's go, Brantly. Nothing on the ground.

[cabowabo 4484]

Bad read there by Kemp. 

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

Perfect!

[tx 3 putt 76958]

Yes !!!!!!

[elfenix 34243]

Tie game!

[henrygandorf 29191]

[perfectchaos007 6642]

Well at least we tied it and got their starter out of the game

Nice little HR streak you got there Seattle.  Goes well with a losing streak.  

[Planet Houston 4930]

[tx 3 putt 76958]

sweeping the first place is team is always huge. great series for the good guys

[kevwun 15789]

6 or 7 from the starter and the game is pretty much over.  Haven't had a backend of relievers this good since the glory days of Lidge, Dotel and Wagner.

[Cosimo de' Medici 121]

Can smack my bitch anyday Ozuna

[Mez2 4023]

On a Sunday night I might bang me some Maze

this bullpen is nasty with a group of young arms ready to go in AAA

[UTexasFight 9452]

Ehhh
While factually true, not all 6 game winning streaks are created equal.
I’lll tip my cap to the Angels for a 3 game sweep of the Brewers. Their other 3 wins were against the dick grabbers.
M’s have 6 in a row against the White Sox and Royals.

I look forward to our 9 game streak and M’s new 3 game losing streak come Sunday evening and being only a game back.

....

[TexArcher 37774]

Nine in a row!

Pants are getting tight.

[henrygandorf 29191]

feel like a fucking janitor over here.

[Limp Brisket 546]

Short, 2 game sweep of the A’s coming up next.

This team keeps grinding, which is great for the playoffs. It's just how we play. 

[UTPhil2006 3807]

2 games in 4 days.  Good for rest, bad for wanting to watch games.

[UTexasFight 9452]

We love to rag on Correa, but man, this team’s record when he’s in the lineup

Yeah, I was watching that live and did a double take. Had to rewind to see if he really said what I thought I heard. 

That was awesome. Hinch rivals Bregman in the arrogance department. I love it. 

[huge 3793]

can he say that?

[YChang 3446]

I'm getting old... what did he say?

James Paxton is bringing up that old sign stealing trope again

I did find out I was tipping my pitches when there were guys at second base.

 

however the facts show it's bullshit

The Astros with literally no one on 2B: two singles, two doubles, one triple, two home runs.
The Astros with a runner on 2B: zero hits, one walk.

James Paxton is a moron.

Seems I'm always holding my breath when I watch him play, because I'm nervous that another injury is but a moment away. But clearly, few guys are more talented. We're as good as anyone when Correa's hitting on all cylinders.

[tx 3 putt 76958]

All teams steal signs, not sure why he’s bitching about it 

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

What a whiny little bitch Paxton turned out to be.
