    Box score is insane for this one. So many home runs.... Every run scored from home runs...

    Remember Devo was just like Pressley once who was that knockdown set up man that you could always rely on. Pressley seems to be going to Devo route also.

    To a guy who is on fire, at that. The pitch location from the bullpen over the last few games has been astonishingly bad.

    Then you were almost on tv.

    Also, WTF with people wearing other teams jerseys to a different game, a different league at that.

    ****, Correa misses a leadoff double by 2 inches and the Yuli nails a ball right at the LF

    Welp now we have to rely on Chirinos and Reddick. Game over.

    Well, we’ve scuffled before in August and then turned it around to take it all so maybe it’s deja vu all over again......

    We have been spoiled by good pitching. This road trip is a cold splash of water. Nobody in the bullpen has pitched well in a while now. It's disconcerting.

    Way to go Stros, bullpen is a such a mess.

    ****. If I'm hitting as bad as Chirnos I'm laying off and hoping they walk me if I get up 3-1

    When Rondon is your only effective pitcher, you're gonna have a bad time.

    Lost 4 of 5

    The bully has sucked and the starters haven't been much better.

    We'll bounce back, but NYY and Dodgers can't lose.


    ETA- checks scores and sees NYY lost... at least there's that.

    We really didn’t need this game... if we did, Hinch wouldn’t have gone to Devo in the 8th.

    We trotted out Sanchez, Rondon and Devo..... that is scrapping the bottom of the barrel for us.

    A couple of these recent games we could have won but rested our top arms. I just don’t think Hinch feels they are must wins. If he did, Devo isn’t pitching the 8th.
