    The Astros faced a starting pitcher released multiple times in his career... and we have 3 runs.

    Second save in a row Rondon has blown so his days are probably numbered as closer

    I like him but not as a closer I just don’t think he’s the answer. I still believe once Osuna gets his mental state straight he’ll be his old self again

    Chill out. I didn’t want us to blow the save but from what we saw he looked safe. I’m just being honest jesus.

    Yeah the Astros have to do more against their starters. Good Lord their closer just made Kemp and Springer look bad.

    Umps missed one there. In my opinion he tagged his upper body. But to OVERTURN?

    Bad call aside, the Astros have been lousy in one run games all year.

    Jackson has been lights out all year. 2.4 ERA, 1 WHIP. Had given up 3 HRs all season long and we went deep on him twice. What's your point?
