This guy has been awful for the Stros this year, he has gotten lefties out, but what a risky move by Williams to leave him in for 2 innings. I guess the bullpen was worn out from the 13 inning choke...I mean loss the night before. If the Phillies can hold on, we are only 3 games back again. GO STROS !! DD
Pedro Borbon hasn't been awful - he's done exactly what he's paid to do - get lefties out. Using him for any other purpose puts the blame straight on the manager.
I think all 3 of our closers (Wagner, Dotel, Gordon) were unavailable as they all pitched yesterday and the day before. That left Borbon, Stone, Cruz and Mlicki.
