Not sure if you're being facetious... has had a good month/solid road trip. I think you're wondering when he'll reach god-like status again.
Terrible call by the ump to end the game <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Call hurts <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Astros?src=hash">#Astros</a><br>Strike 3 should be ball 1<br>Top 9 Sale vs White<br>8% call same<br>2.9in from edge <a href="https://t.co/a6ZCbY0FbV">pic.twitter.com/a6ZCbY0FbV</a></p>— Astros Strike Zone (@AstrosUmp) <a href="https://twitter.com/AstrosUmp/status/733482742072102912">May 20, 2016</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
That last one was a horsesh!t call. Sale is pitching like DK was last season. Keuchel for whatever reason has lost his command on the edges of the plate.
Sale is having another great season. McHugh's pitching extra well is a positive going forward. Still won the series and 3-4 is a decent road trip, all things considered. 2016 Astros continuing their up-swing!!
They said on the radio the other day that Feldman is able to get his leg higher when out of the pen which allows him to throw harder. I thought it was some interesting insight from the pitching coach.
That went about as expected, Sale is a monster. Still we got the series and that's the most important part. If we just keep playing good ball we'll be fine. Shame we couldn't have salvaged one of those we lost in Boston, a 4-3 road trip against 2 first place teams would have looked really nice.
I haven't noticed...is he exclusively out of the stretch when in the pen? If so, that makes some sense, if not then I'm curious why that is.
Tough night. McHugh and Gattis (on the field and at bat) were both positives which was good see. Let's sweep that South Oklahoma team this weekend.
I'm not 100% sure, but I think he only goes into the stretch with guys on base. They also said Neshek changed his arm slot/release point some to make the ball more. Last year, he was off a bit which kept the ball relatively on the same plane which made it easier for the batters to make contact. Would be great if those minor tweaks lead to better, more consistent performance.
sexy McCurvy showed off the stuff that made him a 19 game winner. The only mistakes were with a new catcher, mofos robbing us. Impressed with Gattis as catcher. he look o.k. Got to take this rangers series.
