    Does Gomez not understand situational baseball at all? Just mind blowing.

    Giles' BA against was .318 BEFORE that last single.

    Giles is a p****. Can't handle pressure.

    Multiple diasteous trades have plagued HOU in the last 365.

    It's time for a wild pitch right? Haven't had that yet tonight.

    All that's missing is a balk from an HOU pitcher.

    yes

    Hinch has managed poorly this year. Canja b****es about everything, though. Most of the **** he says is not right... but inevitably some of it has to be.

    No, putting him in was not "fine"... At no point has Giles demonstrated any ability to handle pressure situations. This team NEEDS to win games, to hell w trying to get Giles right. The time to put Giles in was when we were getting shalacked by the Mariners but for whatever reason Hinch thought better and threw a position player to lob toss ups.

    We played a damn fine game and Hinch ruined it in 1/3 of an inning.

    Gomez sucks so bad, fake effort everywhere. It's not hustling, it's fake effort

    that wasn't fake effort on the attempted triple or the attempted catch. Who are you, Barkley? They were dumb plays, but he was going all out for both of them.

    I was disappointed he was well enough to be in the lineup tonight after being hit in the hand. Was hoping he was hurt enough to be out for a while. **** him.

    it's not like he's having an off year. that doesn't apply to managers. you either have brains and are a good manager, or you aren't.

    Definitely not fake hustle but he may be the single dumbest player in all of baseball.

    Hinch needs to be fired before we get too far behind to catch up. No excuse for putting Giles in there. If he was to be put in with a 2 run lead, after giving up a homer you pull him immediately. FFS it's no hard
