Anytime Maldonado lines up, there's an issue Astros could not get a timely hit today, 0-8 RISP I just hate entering games handicapped with Maldonado And Dusty has invented built-in excuses to handicap
i 100% agree that the series finale lineup shenanigans are infuriating but I gotta wonder why they can’t over come it. Just seems like they can’t consistently get on a run and beat bad teams like they’re supposed to. It’s not all Dusty’s fault (but I 100% understand he contributes to it)
This is why I chose to watch golf today and flip over to the Stros during commercials. Wise choice Today was so predictable. Thanks Dusty.
yep, it sucks having a black hole down there who basically is about 75% of what he used to be. Even worse when neither he or Dusty think he should bunt to move a runner over. I didn’t get that at all. I don’t get upset at his lineups any more but his in game managing is just as much a mystery also. He had a great run last PS of pushing all the right buttons and found himself a WS title. I can only hope that happens again. BTW, I edited my OP, we obviously had 5 hits from the top six.
How about putting the lineup out there that they had last night for the next 40 games and I'll take my chances.
Well, and the thing is too that we didn't produce today even without Dusty's ****ery of a lineup card. We left just so many on base and I'll begrudgingly admit that's not 100% on Dusty. Still, I hate Dusty
Giants CF was playing somewhere near the Oregon border so a skyhigh popup single makes it 1st-3rd with no outs in the 10th
