    I just heard we gave up Fido. I knew we got a lefty pitcher from TOR but I didn't know Fido was part of the deal. I can't believe it. Could really end up biting in a season or two.

    Y’all complain about Espada but shout out to Scott Servais a true moron. Bottom of the 10th still tied after failing to score the ghost runner, this idiot decides to pitch to Devers instead of walking him. Crushes a double off the wall to win it.

    7 consecutive 1-run losses (19-16 record). They were like 15-5 at one point.

    Astros need to avoid the sweep -- or don't.

    It’s almost like he just wanted to get on the flight home as quickly as possible. There’s absolutely zero rationale for not walking him there. He’s hitting over .500 his last 7 games too.

    Devers destroys the Astros...I'm glad he's destroying somebody else for a change

    Oh great Pirates pitching some scrub tonight that’s fresh up from the minors after the White Sox DFA’d him earlier this season…

    5 innings of one run ball incoming.

    They’ve been two of the better hitters on this team.

    Is it me or has Yordan been flying/lining out sharply a lot lately?

    I’m guessing you didn’t see that catch (rob)?

    That’s probably a HR in 4/5’s of parks. Not in MMP with Cutch playing CF…

    Yeah, he’s been getting unlucky a bit. Yesterday his first AB hit a 109 mph rocket right to the CFer

    Nope. I've been scoreboard watching the gameplay on MLB.com. Every time he's at-bat...all I see lately is "lines out sharply".

    That wasn’t Cutch playing CF and he’s saying he’s been hitting the ball well but it’s been getting caught which is accurate

    Why was the Pirates hitting coach tossed?

    Sorry… I guess Michael Taylor is just owning this series all around now. But looks like he was also stat casting it (like many here supposedly).

    Looks like the Pirates have our number. The team looks dead and lifeless
