    I just don't trust Devo anymore. Just get this 1 out Devo.

    I hope you’re right. What do you think of the decision to bring in Liriano?

    We've seen it 50 times in the playoffs already. When the glove moves entirely across the zone, or when the catcher doesn't catch the ball...90% of the time the ump calls it a ball, even if it's a strike.

    Great job by Liriano. Solid call, Hinch

    Devo is going to give up a dinger. I don't know why. I just feel it

    This is interesting...I don't want D-Vo just used for one hitter if he happens to get the guy out. However, maybe AJ just feels that's all he can get lol.

    Figured Morton will start the next inning off, and hopes D-Vo can get one big out here.

    I'm back and I see the Stros have a nice but not comfortable lead. Not looking boring though yet.

    C'mon, Devo. Redeem yourself for Game 5.

    Isn't Morton one of the best pitchers in the league for the first 4 innings? then he craters? sounds like he'd be awesome in relief.

    You'd think Hunch would avoid all of his normal relievers. But here we are, Devo.

    They really don't want Morton mid-inning.

    This is the nicest thing ever said about Liriano on this board.

    If we get out of this inning and Morton is up to the pressure that will be huge.

    Puig hit a HR last time he faced Devo.

    yes, but it's a completely different mentality when you don't go through your normal routine as a starter. but i'm not too worried about morton. devo is my main concern right now
