    Castro has zero homers and 1 RBI. Maldy has a lot more. What’s up with that Dusty? Maldy tired?

    As much sense as bringing in Yordon when they could pitch around him just like they did.

    Poor strategy to bring in Yordan there. All they had to do is pitch around or walk him and then Dusty makes it easier for the Yanks by ph Castro to end the inning for the Astros.

    Maybe now you people will take much more heed to my yearning for a top flight closer to make this a championship level bullpen.

    If that top flight closer was on this team now we would have just finished a 4 game sweep of the Yankees.

    Instead we are splitting the series. Gross.

    I see what Maldy brings but Castro is so useless as a player. If they insist on keeping him in the dugout just create an extra coaching position for him. Should he be DFA'd I can almost guarantee nobody would give him an MLB contract at this point. I love the guy but he is a net negative to a championship contender.

    This broadcast is so annoying. They keep showing highlights of old Yankees walk offs that keep fooling me.
