    When will he be on Netflix's Mindhunter? Can't wait for him to be in the same room as Ed Kemper!

    Being scoreless against Wood is not cool!

    Astros are hit-less against wood

    Alex Wood is doing a nice job of keeping the ball down and getting groundball outs. He is also throwing more strikes in the last inning or two. Let's see if he tires out in the 5th inning. Then again, Roberts will probably pull him in the 4th inning.

    Honestly all he’s throwing is balls. Just don’t swing.

    I don’t think wood is under control. So far effectively wild, but, I don’t think he’s gonna go deep into the game like that

    Wood is missing on a lot of his pitches, we just need to find the right one to make him pay

    He could have a perfect game going and Roberts would still pull him

    hopefully hitters have picked up that all Wood is doing is throwing sliders/changeups in the dirt. he's gotten behind in the count on like 6/9 hitters so far.

    7-8-9 hitters have been nails. Nothing worse as a pitcher to have to throw a bunch of pitches to the bottom of the lineup
