    You guys are complete idiots. Altuve has always been one of the most aggressive hitters in baseball. He counts on a pitcher not being able to deal... Kirby is dealing.

    I love Altuve and I know he’ll snap out of it he always does but do you put Diaz in for him at this point?

    With Altuve’s history of play in the playoffs and the team currently up 2-0. With the comments here about him wow.

    Tuve just swung at a pitch above his head.

    This is how you lose games; RISP with less than two outs and not scoring.

    His approach at the plate has been awful this series. I don't see how you can argue otherwise.

    It feels like Lance had one more good inning or at least 1-2 more outs in him, but I understand the decision to pull him here. Neris better deliver, though.

    Altuve is hacking at anything and everything. I can't remember him being this off.

    This series is the worst Altuve has looked in his entire playoff career. Kirby could've thrown a pitch 6 feet above the strike zone and Altuve would've swung at it.

    Altuve is trying too hard to play the hero.

    He was close to 90 pitches and he's coming off an injury that cost him almost an entire season. I don't blame Dusty.
