    With every start like this, he's guaranteeing that they won't even waste time in arbitration with him / think about him as depth next year. Which is a plus. I'm reaching..

    No, you can't start Musgrove- he's doing too good where he is. And Martes isn't guaranteeing you anything better than Fiers.

    You'd really want him back? I know you've defended him in the past and he was good the first half but man has been atrocious the second half :(

    Fiers needs to be in the minors as insurance for the 20 starts a year McCullers and Dallas K combined will miss or he needs to be dealt.

    That first inning was just the type of garbage the Astros didn't need.

    Let's be honest... 2 wins during the recent 7-game streak were lucky AF with Maybin hitting game-winning HRs.

    Let's just hope we play well in the postseason. We're already in the dance.

    And say what you want the pitching is trash outside Verlander but the hitting has been crap as well. I'm talking about not hitting against no name minor league pitchers. They haven't faced any big name pitchers and they aren't hitting

    Trade Fiers for a low A guy or cut him. Dude has no business being on team next year.

    I laughed at Kalas "Fiers bouncing back. 5 runs in the first, 0 in the second." found it funny

    The Royals got lucky AF with Correa's error.

    Steel Curtain lucked out with Renfro's legitimate TD being deemed, "illegitimate".

    Fiers is the world's worst pitcher of all time.
