    What’s crazy is 3 Runs isn’t typically some huge deficit For the stros. And most would still believe. Not for the last 4 years but tuve‘s error just to sucked the life outta the stros

    Have the Astros become the 21st century Braves?

    I seriously doubt its an injury. I doubt Altuve would be dishonest about it and jeopardize his team’s success. If he is in there injured and Baker doesn’t know then that is really fuked up on both of their parts. Altuve for being dishonest and Baker for not investigating thoroughly why Altuve couldn’t make throws that a 12 year old is expected to make. And it makes zero sense that Baker would play him in the field if he was aware that it actually is an injury.

    We could still win this game if we crawled out of our funk. Not likely but still possible.

    We are only down 3 with 3 innings to go. I should tape it and watch it in the morning if we find a way to salvage this game. But the glutton for punishment I am I will hang in there for at least another inning.

    Reddick, probably Osuna although he might be healthy but such a risk to take a chance. Probably Devenski and Peacock. Maybe one, if not both of Springer and Brantley. Verlander (can he come back for the playoffs or is he done after tjs?). Does Joe Smith sit out again?

    Feel bad altuve. He had some major hits the past few years, cut him some slack.

    Again we don’t know.

    that said I’m not saying Altuve is being intentionally dishonest except we hear all the time player going out there hurt because they think they can play through it.

    All I’m saying is that y’all of saying that Altuve is done like Knoblauch because of yips is very premature

    To be fair that was a nice play by the pitcher. But yes it was a dinky hit ball.

    It's crazy, most of the time they don't even have to move.

    oh i never said he was “done”.

    I just think he is in a mental funk when it comes to throwing the ball.
