[Official] Rays @ Astros

They act like they think they’ve already made the playoffs and they’re going thru the motions.

 

Money quote from a 2013 article chronicling the end of Dusty Baker's tenure with the Reds:

"It wasn't just that the Reds ended the year on a six-game losing streak. It was that they looked disinterested doing it. The best a manager can do is set a tone. Baker's tone this year didn't work."

Sound familiar?

 

The word is unacceptable. Getting no hit through 5 innings against a bad pitcher when you're trying to win a division is unacceptable.

 

Having trouble hitting against a pitcher with a near 5.50 era.

Yep, sounds about right.

 

Damn, at least someone came to play today.

 

Anyone who can't see how worthless he is isn't watching the games

 

F@CK THE ASTROS!

Hey, somebody had to say it! They are putting us through hell!

 

Wacha is the anti-Odorizzi when it comes to being taken out of the game…

 

Then, as the Reds Astros drifted, then nose-dived late in the year, Baker insisted there was no need for urgency.

@Stephen66

 

Man, they scored two runs before the game even began and we're getting no-hit again. Trying times.

 

That day off really helped.

 

124 K’s for Maldy. Career high. War -0.1

 

Thank you Alex. At least they won't get shut out or no hit.

 

Finally.

 

Bregman!!!

 

So that’s what hits look like.

 

Sure seems like a big magic number at only 2. Feels like it will take Seattle losing 2 more to clinch. Surely hope I am wrong and we can at least win 2 of these 6 so we can clinch on our terms

 

Better than 50/50 they don't know why this is happening either.

 

I think this team really feeds off of what Altuve does at the plate. It’s a lot harder when Altuve is MIA.

to the relievers, QUIT WALKING BATTERS!

 

Hit a homer Diaz or Chaz.
