    Even if he pitches for the other team, it sucks watching Ohtani struggle after his injuries.

    Have the Astros had any hits with the bases loaded this year? Seems like the only way they have scored in these situations have been walks, HBP, or sac fly.

    Going to be a lot of bullpen innings if James can't find the zone.

    James has some amazing stuff, but it's like pulling teeth watching him pitch.

    Someone who can throw pretty hard, pitches so damn slow. He can go be the oldest in the pen when Urquidy comes back.

    And when you have to throw cripple fastballs just to throw a strike, that's what happens.

    Pujols kills us again.

    That makes 60 career HRs vs the Astros. The most by any player vs any team in MLB history.

    Thrown some damn strikes and you don't have to count on a check swing call.
