  1. Fair. But I still I don’t get the whole β€œI’m not concerned about this thing (not scoring any runs) that happens multiple times every week… I’m more concerned about this other thing (pitching) that has actually been pretty consistent for the past few weeks and hopefully should get even better as everyone gets healthy.”
  2. I keep hearing people say that the Astros' bats are fine but they're worried about the pitching. I don't get it. Since the last game of the series at NYY, we've played 16 games and only had two bad pitching performances: Javier's first game back from injury in Detroit and Framber's meltdown against the Angels. In those 16 games we've had six bad offensive performances in terms of runs: 2, 2 (in 10 innings), 3, 2, 1, and 1 (today). And I know sample size and everything, but even when the pitching was atrocious earlier in the season, it's not like we were scoring in bunches. The Braves/Nats/Cubs stretch, we scored 1, 2, 4 (10 innings), 5, 4 (10 innings), 0, 2, 3, 1. I guess I'm spoiled. If this is one of the best hitting teams in baseball, I'd hate to root for one of the worst.
  3. Says more about the routine shittiness of the Eastern Conference.
  4. Can the other Abreu join him?
  5. Ehhhh… I think I’d tap the brakes on the β€œeverything possible has gone wrong” talk. Has any of our main bats even missed a game due to injury? I might argue that we had more stuff β€œgo wrong” last year, with the injuries to Altuve/Alvarez/Garcia/Urquidy all within the first couple of months.
  6. Yeah, but our guy gets to face their bats and their guy has to face ours!
  7. Can we opt to not start the 10th with a RISP?

  9. Am I missing something? He’s walked twice but he’s 0-for-2, isn’t he?
  10. That’s a 121.5 ERA for Brown today, assuming Seth can get out of this.
  11. Hitting with RISP is allowed?
  12. Abreu is approaching being loathed at a Carlos Gomez level.
  13. Especially when that stat is an ERA of 135.00.
  14. Can we trade this motherfucker for CarGo and Fiers again? Only half joking.
  15. How soon do we fall back under .500 all-time as a franchise?
  16. Took him 88 pitches to get through 4 IP against the Yankees, and now 29 in the first tonight. Makes LMJ look efficient.
  17. Jose Abreu: Worse on the field or at the plate?
  18. I can think of a lot of adjectives for our hitting, but β€œrelentless” isn’t one of them.
