I didn’t see that play, Sanchez over runs it and it lands behind him. And then they show Joe and he’s just standing there. Why on earth is Altuve hitting 4th Joe?
That seems to be the key piece that has really screwed up our approach at the plate. And Hader. Plus the feckless buffoon in the dugout. It's just too much.
Hitting Altuve cleanup right now is incompetent. Jose is in the middle of one of his patented mega slumps and the playoffs are literally slipping away right before our eyes. Combine that with pitching McCullers at all and you seriously have to wonder just what in the hell Espada is thinking out there.
So Brown pitched Saturday. He could have pitched today on regular rest. That would have allowed him to pitch Tuesday vs Texas and Sunday vs Seattle. But that makes way too much sense for Ole Joe. Sheesh. We're so screwed until he's finally fired.
