    I genuinely can't think of the last time one of our pitchers had a 6 pitch inning.

    Do the Astros look a tad disinterested, or is it just me?

    Typical "we won the series, so who cares about the final game" mentality carryover from the Dusty era.

    Not sure what's worse mediocre lefties in the pen during Dusty or mediocre lefty bats on the bench under Espada...

    As crazy as it sounds, I think I'd take a 1-0 loss in which Arrighetti pitched 7 tremendous innings, vs winning 6-5 and Spencer doesn't make it through the 4th inning.

    Big picture.

    But how about we get both, a 5-1 win.

    When did we have a left handed reliever during the Dusty era?

    Is it just me or Chas tries to play hero rather than playing to his abilities in his approach...?

    Junk ball pitcher - undisciplined hitters -not looking good.

    We need Meyers and Alvarez back they are both healthy, let's go.

    Makes me homicidially angry when a guy like Altuve strikes out with infield back and a runner on 3rd. Be better Jose.

    He is nowhere near as clutch as he used to be, much more sporadic these days.
