    I know he is but they must've saw more potential in Ferguson. I don't get it either

    The talk between Hader and yainer at the end is probably about Ferguson.

    They were just shaking their heads. Smh.

    Damn shame we had to waste Hader today.

    Still, one win closer.

    You see it all the time, normally it doesn't work that well and the catcher just ends up not throwing it.

    That play has been done in LL for decades.

    When you learn the "hidden ball trick" it'll blow your mind.

    That stuff is not supposed to work in the Big Leagues.

    Careful, they may call Montero back. Although he is pitching to a 0.66 ERA in AAA.

    But the catcher threw it to the pitcher though?

    I don't think I've ever seen that in the major.

    That's an upgrade over the Turd.

    I stand corrected, yes I've never seen that at this level.

    Runner on 1st, runner on 3B, double steal (if the throw goes down to 2B the runner on 3B breaks for Home): SS runs in and cuts the C throw to 2B right behind the mound and then nails the runner trying to score from 3B.

    - Blanco's load management appears to have helped - great game by him.
    - sucks Hader had to be burned, but Astros win
    - 4-game winning streak, 4.5 games ahead in the division

    As long as the pitcher isn't on the rubber he's just another fielder.

    Much needed sweep. I’d rather have Whitley over Ferguson at this point
