[Official] Astros @ Mariners

Thank god we have OFs manning RF these days. I get nervous every time I see Altuve going out there thinking of what we've seen Paredes & Carter do out there.

 

I can't take anymore Carter.

 

What a disaster this team is.

All that work to get out of the jam. Then that.

 

And there goes the tie game...

 

Terrible job by Sipp.

 

Idiotic use of the challenge too

 

Thats the game. Hard to fault taking a challenge on a close play resulting in 2 runs scored this late in the game.

 

If it isn't close, which it wasn't, it's still a waste.

 

Not watching. Did he suck today? He's been pretty much lights-out since we got him.

Is there a team in MLB that has worse production from the 1B/LF/DH traditional power/offensive spots?

 

Well, he pitched well. Pitched us out of a bases loaded jam....till he didn't cover on a grounder to 1st.

 

*Didn't break to cover anywhere near quickly enough, I should say.

 

Officials have completely blown calls on review before.

 

Also let a runner score from 2nd on an infield "hit".

And Castro bailed him out on several pitches well in front of the plate.

 

From the Astros' Twitter:

@astros: #Astros officially recall LHP @Rudy_Owens from Triple A OKC to make tonight's start at Seattle. RHP Josh Zeid has been optioned to Triple A.

 

Peacock to the bullpen?

 

Forearm tightness.

 

That's what happens when you have a pea ****. Bazing!

 

Springer back tonight!

 

LOL We managed to go 29 hours without a single post in the active series thread.

The golden age of Astros baseball, god how I hope we're almost through with it.
