    I think he assumed the DBacks were bottom feeders in the NL.

    Blue Jays are 2 games above .500. Diamondbacks are 2 games below.

    Blue Jays also just made a bunch of good trades. So yeah, I tend to think the Blue Jays are a better team than the Diamondbacks. Just my opinion.

    Let down game for sure. Still hope if we can get out of this inning with no more runs though.

    At least this was a quick, fun, painless loss

    The baseball gods took a massive dump on Pat Neshek tonight, for whatever reason

    Well, that escalated quickly.

    I'm willing to bet that Gomez and Neshek will not be responsible for allowing 4 runs in another game this year. Not their night. It happens.

    They're below .500 and virtually no chance of the playoffs. Blue Jays are above .500 and are still competing for the wild card after a bunch of good trades. Hey, it's just my opinion, and also... I'm bias since I'm pissed we're losing to this trash. Not to mention what we gave up for Carlos Gomez to contribute nothing other than giving up a couple of runs. Terrible night.

    Because calling out your fellow fans isn't annoying.

    I've done nothing but cheer for the Astros and am pissed we blew it in the end. It's a natural reaction. But sure, thanks for the warm welcome. Appreciate the input.

    Baserunning has been a problem with this bunch all year long. What drives me crazy is some of these guys show NO hustle sometimes.

    Don't understand using him three nights in a row. Had rarely even been used back to back this year

    It's alright. I'm willing to let it slide.

    Nobody here said the DBacks are as good as the Blue Jays…you keep pointing to the fact that Toronto is better…and everyone already knows that.

    However, there are 11 teams that are worse than the DBacks….and this is baseball…good teams lose to bad teams. It happens.

    Castro Jack. Tuves gets on base, Gomez walk-off.

    I was hoping he'd be on fire tonight after joining a contender. Couldn't have had a worse debut. 0 for 4 while dropping a ball to allow a couple runs. Disappointing.




    I really hope the Astros can come up big in the bottom of the 10th but 2 runs is a tall order.
