It's gonna sting seeing Rangers and Dallas fan in the playoffs knowing that we choked away our chance. And the fact that Hamels refused to come here for big D adds even more of an insult.
I am not surprised, Hinch is just not good enough. And you know what? He will do it again, thats why we can't win more with this guy. Well, lets fight for the Wild CArd, Twins lost tonight.
Hinch lost my trust over the last month with his boneheaded mistakes that he keeps repeating over and over again. We are in the middle of a pennant race, you just can't keep going back to a guy in HUGE situations because you are trying to get his confidence back. Harris has struggled mightily recently (I don't care what the numbers say, balls have been getting scorched.
Repeating myself but I don't trust any of those bullpen guys. No way. If he can't/don't trust his main guys he's had all year, no way he's gonna trust young guys - a Velasquez or a Feliz - to put out there but maybe he has to? Get out of the comfort zone, try someone else.
The Twins are very close behind the Astros for that second wild-card spot.. The Astros had better get their act together quick. There's a pretty good chance that the Astros will completely miss the playoffs, due to their collapse.
Last time the Astros briefly lost the division lead to the Angels, they went back on a hot streak. Keuchel will right this ship tomorrow, and then we'll split the series. Then it's back home. I have faith.
I would honestly settle for winning one of the two games at this point and going home being 1/2 game out.
You are right! He said Beltre has hit Perez hard... Even though Beltre was 2 for 17 in his career against Perez. Then tonight he pulls Marisnicks glove and also puts Harris in to face Beltre and the Astros lose while Gregerson sits and watches. Three straight great games by Harris.
