    Typical Dusty Baker collapse. Couldn't win with Barry Bonds ascending to godhood and the Nationals win the WS after losing in the DS every year.

    No Urgency, no order, just wants to be "one of the guys".

    Dude you called out 3/5 of the starting rotation that helped bring us to this point. Who did you expect them to start, Verlander? **** happens, and it’s only 2 games.

    I was wondering if it was something personal, not the team scandal.

    Things don't look good but I'll be damned if I'm quitting in game 3.

    After what we did? Boston did it more recently with less punishment...

    Missed the home run, what happened with the Altuve error?

    You think Dusty is telling our pitchers to walk batters or Altuve to choke double play balls?

    He's been stealing money for two years. Now, this league average third baseman will pull down $30 million year while Correa walks.

    this is BS. Renfroe should be out with the 3rd strike

    It's our new bad opener strategy. Innovative.

    3 slams in 2 games.

    Hope our FO knows what to do this off-season.

    Yeah it appears he has neutered himself since the cheating scandal came out. Wish he had the **** the haters mentality Correa has had. That's why Correa is the leader of this team and it will hurt to see him go in more ways than 1.

    Needing 5 strikes isn't helping our bullpen last

    McCullers should be pitching this game. For that contract, we can't have such fragility. Hard to overcome the sudden loss of your ace heading into a 7-game series.

    His best season was a product of the Juiced ball. He's part of the group of guys with 20 HR power hitting 35 for 3 years and returning to earth alongside Gio Urshella, Glayber Torres, and Mookie Betts.

    This series is over. Astros are dead.
    Astros need to come back from the dead in a Michael Jackson “Thriller” way.

    That’s really difficult when we have Charlie Brown on the pitching mound.[​IMG]
