    All this madness? Do you think this is the best Astros team ever? I sure as hell don't but here they are with the best record in team history through this point in a season. Madness.

    Smith and Maton both go 3 batters, 3 outs

    If Dusty has any sense, it's Neris and then Stanek (worse case the reverse). No Montero (Jesus F'ing Christ).

    I'm not looking for regular season accolades. Only 1 goal in mind and Dusty is NOT going to have us realize it because he is a stubborn old b*stard and a GD moron.

    Now...do we run Maton out for another inning since he is the freshest out of the bullpen?

    Jake Myers is the true definition of a warm body.

    I knew he was out as soon as it bounced off the wall.

    Another blunder by Jose. Nice try though.

    Dusty makes some puzzling regular season decisions sometimes and I get frustrated but with where they currently sit, not a big deal. Dusty in no way was a reason why they didn't win the World Series the last 2 years. Dusty does not have a dictatorship over the postseason lineup and who plays and who sits. Click has even said team management will map that out before the postseason.

    Gotta be Neris/Stanek in some order, you'd think.

    Or...hear me out...we score about 9 runs in the bottom of this inning and let Martinez have the 9th

    Hopefully he’s getting it now and he’ll rip in the post season

    That first curveball pitch in the middle of the zone was a pitch he would've crushed... he's been just really bad at taking pitches, he hasn't homered since the red sox series, not sure if injured or mental but yeah he's been awful for a while

    Gotta think the thumb has something to do with it.

    OBP is higher than his SLG this month. I can't believe some of you muppets aren't barking at Dusty to bat him leadoff

    I look at Correa’s offensive stats and they don’t look great. Glad he signed elsewhere.
