    Middle of the order now. If you get through it your best reliever, then end the line up in 9th is easier task?

    He had been warming up once the Astros took the lead. Day off tomorrow and 5-6-7 hitters so if he can get you through the inning quickly you keep the door closed.

    Edit: I liked the idea of him warming up for the save. Astros just blew it open.

    That’s one of the better plays I’ve ever seen from a second baseman not even exaggerating. That throw was an absolute dime

    My favorite is when they forgot that the vast majority of ballparks nowadays play on natural grass, really stuck in the 70s and 80s.

    But hey, if old men who hardly know where they are paid by a cabal of billionares are good enough to be politicians (both """sides""" ofc), they're good enough to be broadcasters.

    we hit him well that series too. He got 3 saves but in 4 innings he gave up 2 hits, 4 walks, and 2 runs. We’ve always hit him well.
