    Castro being a lazy ass should not be a wild pitch. He has been doing that alot lately.

    Bregman has put it all together. He is going to be one of the cornerstones.

    I believe he was talking about the error, infield single and WP.

    They certainly know how to pick their spots... badly.

    This would probably happen in a LCS or WS game too.

    I actually live in Chicago; I watch the games too. The Cubs may START resting pitchers but they haven't been in August. The Cubs certainly haven't ran into "bad luck". They may well sweep the Astros (the Cubs have very good since the break); but to make false claims (the Cubs have rested pitchers) and "bad luck" is disingenuous.

    I thought the runner fan settled down giles, like the catcher coming to chit chat. Great move pitching coach.

    Nice win!

    Someone made me think about this earlier so I looked it up, for whatever it's worth:

    Stros catchers (before today):

    Castro: 757.2 Inn, 12 PB, 35 WP
    Gattis: 338.1 Inn, 4 PB, 32 WP

    That Rasmus homer was sweet. The Gattis homer was intense.

    Bregman looks like he's matured much faster than expected.

    Giles holding it down.

    I like it.

    Astros slowly creeping back to Blastro (good HR-hitting team) status again.

    Should finish tonight in the top half of AL HR leaders.
