    Martes so much unrealized potential early in his career. Disappointing he isn't more dominant, but he's still very young.

    Oh so the best record in the American League which the Astros are just 2 games back isn't worth anything?

    Not as much as winning the World Series. Maybe look forward more than a few seconds at a time ;)

    Borderline pitchers called a lot tonight, but not that inning (not that many of those balls were even close)

    Pitchers walking in runs, or guys missing free throws.

    What's more frustrating?

    Am I missing something. Doesn't Boston still have a chance to pass us up and leave us without home field.

    Hinch does realize we are on national tv right? This is no time to trot our our worst relievers with the baseball world watching.

    Who cares? When are we going to move past caring what the media narrative is, or what sports fans from other towns think?

    We care who is watching a national game, its a showcase, and that includes potential free agents. The media narrative is critical. Just look at the rockets last two years and how the narrative changed what free agents we signed and who was willing to be traded to h-town.

    Gotta love ESPN showing the Pujols home run and as an afterthought saying the Astros did win that series.
