    Javier labors through 4 innings, 6 hits and 5 walks, loses the lead.
    Dusty, let's see if he can get through this inning.

    Also, continued ineptitude hitting with RISP is what’s really burying this team

    Javier ain't going to get the win on his record anymore Dusty. Take him out.

    Yeah Javier sucks this year. This is who he is currently. Can’t afford to keep sticking with him in a year like this.

    Stop starting Javier. Hell…Bielak or Blanco are better options.


    Good riddance

    Dusty waits way too long with his struggling pitchers.

    True, but surely the dugout replayed it.

    He’s so bad right now. Just non competitive. Can’t throw strikes. Gets pounded. As shitty as his numbers are he’s actually lucky they aren’t worse.

    Everyone watching the game knew Duval was going to homer… Baker needs to pull Javier and keep this game winnable. He needs to skip a couple starts.

    Astros should pull a Tampa Bay and have someone else start and bring in Javier in the 3rd...

    yup that was catchable. Instead, a walk after giving up a 2 run bomb.

    This team just can’t get over the hump. Javier needs to be removed from the rotation. Very lucky so far. Should be down by 4-5 runs.

    we just can’t ever build on anything positive for very long.
