[Official] Athletics @ Astros

Valnobueno

 

I'm surprised Stassi is getting a start with both Conger and Castro available. Especially with a right handed starter...

 

I was at the game last night. What a relief we got the win. Crazy how my emotions are all over the place with this team. Sat 2 rows behind that guy you can hear on TV screaming let's go Astros. UGH!

Usually this time of year I'm hopefull about the Texans and itching for the Rockets to start. This has made the wait for basketball tolerable. Fun watching the good guys in the hunt.

Time to move on from Rasmus, Valbuena, Carter and such. We have a great young core and it's fun watching them grow up. Division title here we come...

 

Righties are hitting .349 against Brooks

 

Gawd I hate Valencia

 

Hinch is going to send McHugh down

 

McHugh not looking good

 

Neither hit was hit hard at all

Him and Stassi don't seem to be on the same page though

 

Not a good matchup for McHugh as righties hit .302 against him.

 

Sending Butler there ! Lol

 

Hes hit every Astros pitcher all year righty or lefty

 

This is one of the many things i don't like about Hinch.

Look, Siemen is at bat, already 4 for 7 against McHugh (now 5 for 8) you have a really bad hitter behind, two outs, 2 men on bases, i thought they were going to pitch around Siemen, but no, second strike hit hard for an RBI single. We can't make mistakes after mistakes and WISH FOR WINS, you have to deserve the wins by making the correct decisions. We can't win 1 run games with the manager making so MANY MISTAKES. THIS IS A PLAYOFF GAME.

 

Rasmus was due

 

Mumphrey should have got much more

 

Already Marisnick helping the team win with the out at home.

 

And of course, he K's Blair easily next inning

 

I have to say the good, the bad and the ugly.

Very good move by Hinch playing the line with Butler hitting and 2 outs, no one on base

 

Wrong thread

 

we're making this scrub look like a cy young

 

Finally a hit and run
