    Hinch's mismanagement of the bullpen makes Aaron Boone look good

    Osuna in the 8th was defensible, as he wanted to keep the game close as the heart of the Red Sox order was coming up. Just didn't work well, the only thing questionable was Boston's good numbers against Osuna,
    Here, well, ugh if only Correa had gotten the lead out. Maybe he wouldn't have gotten the other one, but he should have made sure he got the out at second.
    As for James, since he's a starter in the regular season I think he wanted to get him through as many batters as possible, though it was questionable keeping him through the order the second time.

    I hockey they call it puck luck. Good teams though try to neutralize puck luck while bad teams count on it to give them a break

    Hinch is relying too much on analytics.


    Just go with your gut.

    Have the Astros ever gotten a hit off of Brasier?

    Astros have been cheated out of ~5 runs tonight.... in a two-run game.

    BOS has gotten multiple call, after multiple call

    The two runs will always matter. It took points off the board and took momentum away
