    Taking Kershaw out now would be galactically stupid, but Astros would still have work to do to make them pay for such a mistake

    Don't listen to that guy- he always has some negative Debbie Downer **** to say. The Astros could win in 5 and he'd be pissed that they didn't sweep.

    It's hot out there and it's hard to be perfect when the lineup is so bad right now facing an all time great. That's the only way I can explain that pitch in that situation.

    I can't believe I liked NL ball at one point in my life.

    Fox's jamming of ads into this game hasn't even been subtle. Just hard cutting from the game as soon as they possibly can.

    Three runs is mediocre in only 6 IP --- 4.50 ERA

    Game isn't over yet though.

    33 million to pitch 6-7 innings a game. My word...

    Kershaw is literally the greatest pitcher of his generation. Only scoring 1 run on him in 7 innings isn’t some epic fail, it’s pretty much the norm for games he starts. And Dallas doesn’t suck for not outdueling him. There’s nothing at all shocking about the game right now. Let’s get some late inning magic.

    How idiotic is Roberts for pulling Kershaw?! I'd be pissed if Hinch pulled Verlander in same spot.

    Oh no doubt. I meant taking games one and two would be the "Dream."

    i think keuchel should have been pulled for Gattis to hit in the top of the 6th but admittedly it's not the worst mistake ever. There's really no need to let starting pitchers not named Justin Verlander go more than 5 innings especially when runs are going to be really hard to come by.

    It's outrageously idiotic. Hopefully it bites him.
