I said it already. But gimmicks are what people want to believe bc there’s some gimmick excuse for everything on cf’s. Instead of just realizing in this case he just has the yips
This is why playoff baseball is so whacky, one mistake and you're done. Just started watching baseball, Never seen anything like it. It's crazy baseball is losing viewers.
Tonight might be over but I agree we might need to DH Altuve tomorrow and hopefully for more than that. If something is wrong with him as soon as this game is over he needs to go see the trainer and tell Dusty.
Strange, but at worst I’d say we’ve played even with the Rays (actually I think we’ve been better), but two massive errors have cost us two games. F—- this f—-ing game....
No more hugs.. That Dusty hug just baked in the all the yip. no more hugs. maybe a light tap on the shoulder.
I'm not mad at Dusty at all for going to Paredes, he's been amazing. At that point you want to stop the momentum at all costs...and now you see why. He could not predict that Altuve would have another possible game losing error and that Paredes would only make things worse. It's like expecting Harden to miss a layup. Team choked tonight, not all of them did...but enough of them did. Meanwhile, you can't get anything past the Rays infield or outfield, they are playing amazing defense.
At least we got out with only 5. Felt like it could have been 10 at this point. Sorry for the ****ing rants, but nothing makes me more ****ing mad than what Altuve just did. AND DID IN GAME 2. It's like when a WR has a walk in touchdown and throws the ball on the ground before crossing the goalline. ITS INEXCUSABLE FOR A PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL PLAYER TO FIELD THE WAY HE HAS. Players make errors, but he not even getting close. He lasered that 3 feet in front of Correa. With that being said, I have zero expectations for this game. But maybe if the bats explode I guess we could make it interesting enough for another crushing 9th inning loss.
it's the most untimely hitting...I appreciate the HR, surely but...would have been nice to have even one guy on base...
