Tough loss, maybe it builds character lol cant be too mad at the pitching hitting was lame , but zone was BS and gibson knew how to take advantage of it . guys put together decent at bats and then gibson would get bailed out.
LOL, no, sorry, Josh James cannot throw strikes enough to be counted on. Maybe sometimes? But you need it to be all the time.
The Good: McCullers looked excellent coming back from the DL. Seven shutout innings, 8 K, 2 hits, no walks Bregman with a double, I guess? The Bad: Our offense, as a whole Only 5 LOB, can't strand too many if you don't even get baserunners in the first place. The Ugly: We really let Kyle Gibson, a mediocre pitcher with a bad ERA, blank us out for all 9 innings, and get 9K. This game
Yeah, pretty much. Somedays he's good, nasty, nasty stuff, other days he can't hit the side of a ****ing barn. You can't trust that guy to be a closer.
Only Springer, Brantley and MM have a OPS >.705 in September, and Brantley is 3 for his last 19. This is a team wide power outage that has lasted the whole month. https://www.espn.com/mlb/team/stats/_/name/hou/split/45/table/batting/sort/OPS/dir/desc
