[Official] Astro s@ Athletics

Don't know if it's that they're bored and waiting for the playoffs but I have MAJOR concerns about this team facing good/elite pitching.

 

Especially since we don’t have consistent elite pitching.

 

I think every team has that concern.

 

Mariners down 12-1 to the Angels in the 5th. Astros could clinch tomorrow if the score holds (Astros win+ Angels win Sunday.).

 

We can clinch tomorrow. Magic number officially down to 2.

 

@Castor27

The title of this thread is jinxing the Astros. Remove the space.

 

It never fails. Seems like we’re the only team that does that.

 

Pic or it never happened

 

There is a reason why it’s elite pitching.

 

I get it. Dusty can do no wrong. - LOL!

That's why Framber was fuming on the bench.

 

Ohtani doing his part last night hitting balls

 

Division is getting clinched today.

Speaking it into existence

 

Taking Framber out was the right call. The A’s were making hard contact that inning and he’d just hit a batter. You can argue Graveman wasn’t the right guy to bring in, but he looked fine that inning. The next was his problem.

The Astros have scored 5 runs total in their last three losses. Pitching and bullpen decisions are not the problem right now.

 

At least eliminate the A's

 

And their three games before that? 39 for 124, .315/.374/.573, 29 runs scored, 20 LOB. Three game up and downs happen all the time. Hopefully we see more of those three previous games than the last three games.

 

no. No. No. This team plays with no urgency. Not clutch. No elite hitters on this team. This season is falling apart. (Did I do this right)

 

Hitting is a disease, like Cooties.

 

Oh it happened
I have a video of it
