    Can you just lay the **** off other posters in big games. Some fans aren't sunshine pumpers. You’re annoying af.

    Astros only hope today is to keep making Skubal work like they did the past 2 innings, and get him out of the game ASAP and get to their bullpen.

    Edit: ugh, this inning was way too quick and easy. This game's likely over.

    The bottom half of the Tigers lineup is even worse than ours. Those same guys didn’t have a problem getting to Framber.

    And before you argue it was BABIP, once again he got down 3-0 in the count to the .190 hitting catcher and it wasn’t exactly a bloop hit he gave up there.

    we wouldnt be in this predicament if he didnt have his hand in the cookie jar, so yeah-- we're including Jeffrey in these discussions.
    I'm just grateful the team had an answer(s) throughout the season to overcome that debt/contract of the worse FA signing in recent history of this team... how do they NOT put him through a rigorous training / on-ramp protocol to figure out he's worth the money??

    If he goes Arrighetti for 3, then no harm done by the panic move.

    We shall see how he handles it.

    We got 2 games to win Joe.

    We gotta scratch out something against Skubal.

    It does not matter how good he was this season. We have to hit the best pitchers to advance, it’s always been that way.
