    He didn’t intend to put the pitch there. I’m not sure how aggressive they wanted to get with him but ultimately this guy will hit nearly any mistake you make.

    That's kind of the story of the dude's career in Houston. Brilliant curve, high velocity fastball. 10 cent brain/control.

    The offense is going to have to come through, can't really depend on lance to shut anyone down tbh.

    We got bad McCullers. All day I feared this would happen.

    that is pretty much that. Shame.

    It's about the only guy and it's the guy who keeps getting pitches to hit...

    Lance needs to last 3 innings at this point. Stay at 2 runs.

    Seriously, what can explain this mind numbing incompetent choice? Do they not have scouting reports in Baker's world?

    If we hold them to 2 runs over 9 innings that’s a ****ing win for the pitching staff. That’s still possible. Get your **** together Lance and let’s win this thing.

    Not a good beginning by Lance, but still plenty game left. He needs to settle down and the bats need to do work.

    Lance coming up small here. He pitches bad on the road, more often than not. I don't trust him, sorry. He has filthy stuff, but he's too shaky to be a #1.

    The simple explanation is that he didn’t do that on purpose.

    So TB goes up 2-0 and THEN we get to hear what a great lineup Cash put together tonight and how smart he is. FFS Francoeur call your shot before the score is posted

    Pick up McCullers and get some runs back. Might have to stop watching again in the 3rd inning lol

    Throwing him a FB isn't the problem, gotta keep him somewhat honest, but you have to put it 6 inches inside or a foot up/in/out.
