    He’ll miss the bag rounding first and be called out on appeal.

    I don't want to berate him during his good season. But it can't help. That and he closes his eyes without following the pitch. If he fixed it...imagine.

    That would be hilarious if he actually did that intentionally in his farewell year. Silly ol' Altuve.

    But can you imagine this alternate outcome, that we let Sousa pitch the 8th as well and blows the game? Nobody on here would let Joe off the hook for not putting in nearly automatic Abreu instead. You can't really say after the fact that because Abreu isn't on his game that Sousa should have pitched 2 innings tonight. I mean that's not how this works.

    Now if any of you said that before Abreu threw a single pitch in the 8th inning, then apologies to you. But no one on here did, and rightly so.

    The strike zone box for the telecast did show the pitch was ever so slightly inside by a couple of inches. In all fairness to Schmoltz.

    If the Astros win tomorrow, we could very well find ourselves only a half game back of both the Tigers and Dodgers for best record in the league.

    So if you didn’t post your thoughts here, you didn’t actually have them?

    Whoa.

    That’s like the tree falling in the woods thing.

    What was funnier was the way fox had the camera angled up in the interview to make them seem like normal sized people.

    I've been kinda busy so haven't been posting much.

    Just wanted to say F$CK the Dodgers with a double dose of Viagra.

    Carry on...

    Over the past 63 games, the Astros have averaged a very healthy 4.76 runs per game. Yordan wasn't in the lineup for 59 of those games.

    That average would be good for 7th best in the league right now.

    Can't wait until we have a real litmus test. All these division leaders clearly aren't enough of one.

    Come on bruh.

    I'm saying nobody had that thought in their head that Sousa should pitch 2 innings instead of a very rested Abreu. Like, nobody.

    It bugs me to no end when someone says something AFTER the fact.
