77 games, 77 and counting GIDP
If the Royals don't hit into any double plays this game, the Astros will take the major league lead in absolute and per game GIDP as a team. They...
At the beginning of this game, I was making fun of that Papa John's promotion where you get a second large pizza of equal or lesser value free the...
Altuve has decided to not leave winning the game in anyone else's hands.
If we earn home field advantage, can we opt to surrender it?
The Astros are not on pace so far to break the record for grounding into double plays in a season (174 by the '90 Red Sox), but I have faith in them.
I'd like to see him benched for a couple of games for this. It's a consistent pattern where he throws a fit every time he doesn't like a called...
The pitch was a strike. Marwin extremely predictably argued it as he always does. Then he threw his helmet and bat like a child and got tossed,...
Oh, I meant at the pro level. Should have been more specific. I've always liked that pitchers still know how to hit the ball even all the way up...
Sucks. In a era where pitchers are getting even worse as batters, and I hate it, suddenly this guy shows up bucking all "common sense." I hope...
Gattis is making a damn good case for himself. And the way Kemp in playing on both sides of the field, I'm thoroughly happy with a permanent...

Yeah, my thoughts exactly. In fact, I just said those exact thoughts in the game thread last night. :) He definitely has the riskiest pitching...
I want to believe that a finesse pitcher like Keuchel can survive and thrive in today's MLB. Guy has a Cy Young. He did something very right a...
According to Team Rankings, the Astros are 23rd worst in MLB in both GIDP and LOB per game....
This game is so bad that Todd and Geoff have completely checked out. Talking about their phones. It's kind of hilarious.
As much as I don't like to tie our losses to the refs, games 6 and 7 were such obvious hatchet jobs, it just leaves me bitter about the NBA in...
*sigh* I go eat and we have the lead. I come back and we're chasing the lead. Boy oh boy would I love to hear what our starters are saying under...
I'm concerned at how inconsistent Giles' windup was last night. Sometimes he just sort of came to partial stop on the rubber and launched into a...
