    I'm starting to look toward Homelander. I mean Verlander. To save us next year.

    I hate to say this but maybe there’s a reverse jinx..

    If something is wrong with Altuve physically is getting swept might not be the worst thing. If he ends his season sooner than later might Get a chance to get things fixed

    So weird how often we score in the first inning and then get shut out.

    That is straight up interference by the batter.

    The swinging motion is different than the throwing motion

    I don't even know what to say. Tampa has that "Angels in the Outfield" mojo right now. It's annoying af

    If you can’t make the most basic throws to the bags, you shouldn’t be on the field.

    stop with the gimmicks. He isn’t hurt. Cf’s loves to make up these terrible excuses that just aren’t there

    Think I'm heading in for the night. Just got home. Altuve airmails a throw. Astros choking on offense for the 3rd straight game. Good day.

    They are definitely different motions nut I would assume an arm injury would still effect your swing.

    If Altuve is hurt and messing with his throwing arm, DH him.
    Won’t matter if we lose tonight.

    I feel like we’ve outplayed them for most of this series.

    Not sure what ump saw on that play. He did not stay in box conpletely and made with a fielder trying to field it.
