You just knew Toro would reach base 2+ times and do damage. Former Astros morph into Ted Williams when they face us.
Y'all sure we can't have Caratini catch most days and then move Diaz to 1B? Is he not reliable enough defensively?
I'm still looking at that debacle against the Rangers just before the break when we should have swept them. They would have been done, selling at the deadline. Espada gave them a new lease on life.
If Oakland continues anywhere close to their current play, the Astros only have one "easy" series (CHI SOX) the remainder of their schedule. There's 19 series that remain. Every team is right around 500 or better (a few are much better), sans Angels and CHI SOX. The umps can be blamed for one game. Dubon was clearly safe at 1B. That f*ckery stopped a big potential rally.
