    Damn. It was bound to happen at some point. They need to come out with a fire tomorrow.

    Why Hinch didn't leave Devo in for the 8th is a complete mystery.

    I'll say it now and will say it tomorrow I don't like Giles ! I believe he could be the one reason this Astros team doesn't win it all ! Some days he's great and some days he's terrible ! Very bi-polar and not a closer you want on a championship team

    Need to make a trade for a real closer. The hitters will be better in playoffs that giles will see

    It's baseball. It happens. It's only one loss. It was bound to happen sooner or later. No need to be worried. Still have the best record in the league by a wide margin.

    I don't want to hear about how it wasn't Giles fault. I don't want to hear about how he's been on a good run. He ***** the bed in higher leverage situations. He gives up hits and runs. **** him.

    It's frustrating though to blow a 7-1 lead, including 7-3 in the 8th.

    Sucks for the streak to end like this. Up 7-1 thought it was a done deal

    We lost this game because of Hinch trying to be cute with Guduan and Hoyte being put in positions they should never be. There is no reason that Harris shouldn't have been brought in to right the ship, none.

    Good question. He's usually a multiple inning guy when he is used. Oh well.

    That piece of **** Giles. I never liked him. I never trusted him. For all I know he had my Astros setup and our starter Paulinos night killed.

    We should've traded Bregman, Martes and Paulino for Sale. Damn.
