    We do get the pleasure of watching Charlie "hit" yet again. Poor guy.

    If Morton avoids DP'ing, his AB is a success.

    Don't take anyone down with you !!!

    Of course. But these guys are on a major league roster for a reason. Bad pitchers will have a good game, good pitchers will have a bad game. You are a long enough fan to know that.

    Not to mention he’s a former top 5 pick and his ERA isn’t indicative of how he’s pitched -he’s had some extremely bad luck based on his peripherals

    Edit: In fact I’m not sure I’ve ever seen anything quite like it. He’s striking out 11+ per 9 and hasn’t had an issue with walks...his BABIP against is an insane .376.

    Wanna know who's made more outs on the bases than the Astros? I know you do: Boston, Rockies, Cubs, Pirates, Rays, DBacks. Stros have 39, MLB average is 33.

    Outs at Home? Stros have 12, MLB average is 11. Outs at 3rd? Stros have 8, MLB average is 7.

    I think most folks know that. But part of being a fan is to say rash things in rash moments.

    He hit a 100+ mph line drive that’s a hit probably 80% of the time...
