    Stassi absolutely does not belong in the MLB right now. He’s awful so far this season. Thank goodness Chirinos has been really really solid.

    Nope...he just watched 2, Two, hanging breaking balls right over the middle for strikes 1-2.

    His bat's too slow to hit a good fastball (eta: unless he's guessing), you'd think he'd feast on those...but no.

    So McHugh’s ERA is approaching 5. How much long does he last as a starter? Just curious on everyone’s thoughts.

    Well to be fair, he is feasting on something these days

    I think he stays in the rotation for a while. He’s a solid #3 and a very good #4. He’s had a couple of poor games recently. I think he rebounds. As i say that he gives up another run. Damn

    probably just my thing but I hate scoring over 8 runs in the previous game. It seems like the bats go into the cave and sleep the following game.

    To be fair, he's only had the one terrible start vs Arlington before tonight. JV's had one, Cole's had one, Peacock's had one, etc...

    I think if we ask the Twins to "Take it Back." That might scare 'em somewhat and give us the opening we need to think of a comeback response.

    Altuve is multi-hitting.

    Let's cut into the deficit.

    Bregman needs to start driving the ball like he usually does, he's been a lazy FB machine all too often so far.

    Score some damn runs, Stros.

    McHugh had a clean inning.

    White clearly isn't seeing the ball well.

    Or, he's only confident a BB gets him on base.

    Swing the f****** bat.

    Apparently Tyler doesn’t know that he can actually swing his bat. Maybe someone should tell him.
