    That was horrible Villar. Getting picked off aggresively rounding third (for absolutely no reason) with the bases loaded.

    There was absolutely no reason to round the base, could have had the bases loaded for the hitting machine.

    Man, what a stupid play.

    That's the thing....why in the world was he rounding third on a play to the plate. I could see it if the throw was to first or second, but it made absolutely no sense to round third on a play to the plate.

    Do you want them to start Marc Krauss, maybe Carter or Guzman. What exactly would you like the Astros to do. Everybody except out top 3 hitters suck, so there really isn't a better hitter to put in the cleanup spot.

    He's struggling, he's just gotta play through it. At least he provides some potential to not suck eventually.

    Considering Downs didn't pitch Thursday and only threw 2 pitches Friday, he should have been available unless he was hurt.

    Altuve's 4 multi-steal games in a row has not been done in 100+ years.

    Great series for the Astros. I'll take two of three all year long against quality opponents.

    Very well could have been a sweep.

    Sipp and Qualls are excellent pitchers.

    Sipp is better against Righties than Bo gives him credit for.
