    Yeah the utter irony is he improves to 13-25 in games decided by 2 runs or fewer.

    You crafty SOB.

    If Guerrero really wanted to be on this Astros team he'd do better than 0-3 with 3 ks against the Mariners today. Thank you... NEXT! #sigh

    this whole pitching staff is running on fumes.

    they need to get healthy and the break can't come soon enough.

    espada is given a bunch of AAA and AA pitchers. what the hell is he supposed to do? 13-5 lead in the 9th and your pitcher can't get 1 out?

    It's a win.
    A win as pretty as Mookie Wilson.

    Be more gdamn decisive. That was ridiculous to wait until Hader was officially in a save situation. That just can't happen. But ole Joe doesn't know what he's doing. Kinda like the other old Joe.

    Hell I was calling for Contreras to be pulled in the 8th if 2 men had got on.

    Memo to Astros scouts, Mr Correa is not walking in this series. Unless HBP, he is not taking a walk against the Astros. As for Hater, if Pressly is pitching better, time to have a bullpen by committee, or let Pressly close.

    We know Christian Walker owns Dodger pitching so there's that. :D

    This is a fail on the pitching staff.....12 runs is terrible.

    Espada leaves pitchers in far too long.

    On the flip side.. Julio Rodriguez is having a miserable season with an OPS less than Singleton's

    I thought Bregman’s HR was a throw away. It won the ****ing game.

    Surprised the refs didn't call an offensive foul on that shot ;) He clearly kicked his leg out

    Nah, he’s just trying to convince the Ms he sucks so they won’t trade for him. Honestly don’t blame him…playing there would suck

    Might have been a different bullpen strategy... that being said... an 8 run lead in the 9th inning should not even be close to being blown.

    Glad we won, but that was disgusting to watch at the end.
