I swear he hits into a double play every time now with a runner on first he’s not even that old baseball wise he’s just been bad
Javier is close to being back also. I know that doesn't inspire a lot of confidence in most Astro fans, but it's very likely he will come back and start games soon either way
Yordan not pinch hitting here is quite ridiculous. Especially with the lefty coming in. That's an Alvarado 3 run homer waiting to happen. We may have the dumbest manager in baseball. Seriously. It's only a loss to put a halt to the winning baseball we've had the last few weeks. No big deal.
Idk why you pinch hit for smith here . They have the lefty in the pen ... In fact the pitcher was struggling so if smith batting leaves him in then that's great ! Also smith already hit a HR today I hope it works out , but I don't like taking the bat out of smiths hands
Oh yeah , I just posted that I didn't like pinch hitting for smith . But if it was yordan I understand
I was thinking the same. Cam has the same type of numbers righty or lefty and you can save Fido for Matthews AB
What a phucking joke of a manager we got. Jesus Christ. Maybe we can save Yordan with the bases empty in the 9th and 2 runs down.
Joe doesn’t think. Loperfido was 1/13 against LHP this season. There’s zero planet where having Loperfido hit against a fresh lefty coming in was a better matchup than a struggling pitcher racking up a high pitch count in the inning against Cam.
