Wow, we got lucky there, but I'll take it. Almost too aggressive there, but given the situation, Im glad it worked out.
Correa with another big hit. He's come through more in the clutch then anyone on the team this year. Great hustle by Altuve as well.
Altuve can be bad at base running but I don't fault him in that situation because the club is desperate right now for some type of momentum. Hopefully that can get the team going.
He got extremely lucky... glad it worked out. He also swung on a first pitch ball on the outside corner. Moral... it's all good when it works out. No no no no... yes
I don't know why he would tell him that. He has a high risk, high reward lineup. Taking those chances just follows the philosophy of what this team has to work with.
So is it just about official that the Carlos Gomez trade is a bust? What a joke. Sick of listening to the guy talk, meanwhile his bat absolutely sucks. No, he wouldn't help us this year, but giving away Brett Phillips could prove to be a HUGE mistake.
Lately the Astros are batting around .100 with RISP and 2 outs. If you think the odds are better than 10% of scoring on a play like that then do it. Hell, I'd take Correa stealing home after he got on 3rd as a better chance than the Astros getting another 2 out hit.
