    The bases are where Astro players go to die. Does anyone know how our number of stranded base runners compare to other teams?

    I don’t know but I was told bunting the runner over to third was a guaranteed run. At least that’s what this board seems to think.

    He’s been solid no doubt. If you replaced Vlad Jr with him though then we have a real “death lineup”.

    If the Astros have a big lead they relax and don’t struggle picking up runners. But when it’s close or close and late they suck balls.

    It’s Joe’s fault for not making them clutch

    We have two runs from a washed up Heyward hitting a homer. The fact Espada even played him today was questionable. Pretty pathetic.
