[Official] Astros @ Mariners

Once again, I have to say--I will be sorely disappointed if Gattis is still our DH next season

 

You got to be joking

 

6 double plays in one f-ing game. The approach that Gattis just had was absolutely pathetic.

 

This is going to be a tough save opportunity.

 

Wow! Wooow.

 

DUmbest team ever. Play situational baseball. How many f ing double plays???

 

GIDP: 6 (franchise record): González 2; Gurriel; Bregman; Reddick; Gattis

 

We wasted that leadoff double like a great SP effort

 

LOL....thanks I needed a good laugh !

 

Can rondon do this?

 

Did I just watch a replay? Nope just another d.p. to break a franchise record. Hopefully it doesn't come back to haunt them.

 

yes

 

Gotta trade for Smoak to replace Gattis. Another lefty (well, actually switch hitting) option.
And yeah, I made that post just before the GIDP happened, I just had a bad feeling the moment Reddick took ball 4, and I was right. If Gurriel was safe in the 4th, Reddick's homer (13, matching last year's total) would have been 2-run instead of a solo shot. Hopefully that won't matter.

 

Even Gattis who is obviously a heavy flyball hitter grounds into them.

It’s just piss poor execution. Taking the pitchers double play bait every time.

We can only hope the depth of the problem today inspires a changed approach.

 

This team is so far behind the Sox, Indians & A’s at this point. Brutal job of manufacturing runs.

 

Why can’t tyler white be our DH? If we are healthy he can replace Gattis and Gattis merely a bench guy.

I think White has earned the opportunity: he’s fun to watch. And he won’t cost you anything.

 

Cano didn't have enough PEDs in him for that to go over.

 

Ca-no home run this time!

 

Good job Rondon

 

Yep.... nailed it!
