    If your entire bullpen can't get 3 outs you might not be a championship team.

    Players aren't choking

    They are scared because your manager pulls guys when he shouldn't. So scared to mess up they aren't concentrating on getting guys out, but not messing up.

    No issue for Hinch to pull Lance after the HR.

    But he should definitely put Peacock in for 2 innings.

    I've always said, when your coach panics the team follows.

    It's ALWAYS the 8th inning. Against Kansas City, and back in the day if you know your Astros history they gave up a 5-2 lead in the 8th to the Phillies in the tiebreaking Game 5 of the NLCS in '80.

    Can't do anything. You don't pull your dominant starter for a guy whose shown to crap the bed when it counts(devo). Devo did it the last time out.

    There's truth to this but they are choking to imo. Bad approaches at the plate, pressing, etc. Gotta be more mentally tough than that at this stage is you want to be championship material.

    The old Houston tease...just get it close enough to where you think you can pull it out.

    Ump let yanks back in game... his BS strike zone all game...giving them outside away and refusing to call the low strikes....Lance did great... Hinch was a idiot for pulling him with no one on base ..after Judges HR....ruined mood of whole team, FACT... we have stuck with 4 shitty ass relievers since last year... HARRIS, GREGRSON, and the Left Handers left off Playoff Roster....
