    These Mariners homers are annoying af...saying every ball "just missed it". Why do I subject myself to these away feeds?

    Oh, I know. I'm reading between the lines. There are two very good teams in the AL East. The likelihood that the AL West locks up BOTH Wild Card spots? I'd say that's pretty slim.

    Well, division lead down to 4 games with A’s also making a push. This is what a AAAA lineup looks like.

    0-1 to Bregman...runners on...2 outs...he stares at a 91mph meatball right down the middle of the ****ing plate. If you don't believe me, go back and look.

    He made a good AB out of it and all, but that's not what they needed right here. Swing the ****ing bat.

    Any reason why Hinch seems so reluctant to fill Kemp in at 2B?

    Seven starts now where Gerrit Cole has allowed 2 or fewer runs and will earn a no-decision or a loss. It's the most egregious example of the five starters but certainly not the only starter afflicted by this.

    This month the Astros are really going to miss the double-digit number of opportunities earlier in the season when they were at full strength and couldn't mount basic offense to get wins after often above-average-to-brilliant performances by most of their pitchers.

    I haven't counted yet how many hits they have in the past 100 innings or so...couldn't be many.

    I know ! I understand some of the Stros big guns are out but what’s that got to do with the rest of the team forgetting how to Hit?

    No, I was just making a side comment in light of the defensive shuffle. I've said that after trading for Pressly, we should shift gears and go after a bat. I was fine with Rondon as closer.

    OK, I'm watching the damn ballgame and I am still superfly****ing tnt pissed off at Bregman watching that 0-1 pitch go by.

    I don't care about yall's fanciful trades and potential lineups and any of that candyass bullshit.

    These hitters should be ashamed. This is absolutely pathetic.

    This is getting sad very fast. This team looks depleted ! They have become so undisciplined at the plate even Bregman just standing there his last at bat and letting two pitches go right down the middle.
