    That horrible call in the astros favor yesterday led to a pretty bad scorecard for the ump

    And dude was an angry man even before he took the roids

    Maybe if he had taken them earlier we would have got more than Heneman for him

    That was an awful game-changing call. These scoreboards usually go against the Astros 90% of the time though.

    That wasn't an awful call, that was a spectacular play by Diaz. Maybe we're just on the short end of a lot of these scorecards not because the umps have it out for us but instead because our primary catcher ****ing blows at stealing strikes?

    Would have liked to see Yanier DH but this is good.

    Why is the bad call on the wrong side of the plate? Are these strike zones from the batter perspective? I’ve been looking at these from the wrong side the whole time???

    I can see this, but Diaz has been hitting the ball hard lately. It seems like he's going to bust out any minute or decade depending on Dusty's stubbornness.

    But if he used Diaz at DH and Maldanado had to come out of the game, who could possibly play catcher ….

    I get that Dusty may have had a role in Click leaving but at some point there has to be a pecking order that’s honored and Crane has to realize the value of a real GM now after the disastrous off season. With that said if Brown wants Diaz getting more ABs then it’s time to step up

    Isn’t that exact scenario the reason why Salazar is on the roster?

    What did Ward do to piss off the ump?

    Or maybe Brown agrees with Dusty's approach.
