    How are they so calm? Aren't they reading the BBS?

    Is Giles going out there or Devo?

    Giles threw like 20 pitches. No way he's coming back.

    Giles is going to get a W. Altuve MVP meter going up. Get hit, stole base, score game-winning run.

    Agree... Keuchel should of been pulled after second single to start the inning. Left in one hitter too long, in my opinion.

    I think Devo because Giles usually doesn't go multiple innings. I'd be fine with Giles if he hadn't already pitched a tough inning.

    Nice go-ahead RBI single for Correa. Maybe that'll be the hit that gets him out of this slump.

    A culmination of how he's been handled thus far this year.

    "Left him in too long" -- Indians game.

    "Took him out too soon"-- A's game.

    Keuchel is just too damn good for innings 1-8. Makes these decisions pretty dicey.

    Well I just turned 30, and my sports fandom peaked when I was 8. So I'd like to tell you it gets better, but sadly...

    That being said, if there's a franchise in this town that has a shot to break this curse, it might be this one. This Astros team has a feel to it that I haven't seen in Houston since before I hit puberty.

    Giles wasn't great in the 9th but he shouldn't be getting the blame... the manager should be ashamed.

    We may have found our closer.
