    Would have been nice to have gotten Trout. The last pitch was very close but with Trout batting the ump gave him the benefit of the doubt. If it was higher and more inside it could have been a punchout. Wonder what changes had Taylor gotten the first man out. Oh well, on to the next. Really hope Taylor especially returns to form, since he looks to be the first lefty reliever since 2015/18 Sipp that's actually good.

    No, not too much to ask especially since he had Thursday off. WTH. He's been the hot hand lately, so go with him.

    Correct...there are several pitching who have absolutely NO BUSINESS in the Majors. Shouldn't even be Triple A. There are a few other non pitchers in the same boat. A 60 game season and several nookies that can't stay active for 60 games...Sheesh ! A joke !Probably not making the playoffs.

    Odds that Angels win another close game, I don't think so. Stros win when most casual fans aren't watching and sleeping.

    He called one fastball on the top of the zone a ball and then two pitches later he called the EXACT same pitch a strike

    Should Verlander and Altuve be shut down for the season?

    This team can’t win if it’s not healthy, they’re just not deep enough. I’d rest everyone as long as possible, but the window won’t be open forever, so unless there is a risk of serious long term damage, I’d play everyone once it really matters.

    At least, Kyle's growth and development has been VERY promising.

    Good job Correa. Let's not waste his effort and get the 3rd out.
