    What’s Charlie F’in Morton’s contract looking like?

    If we could get him for relatively cheap, I'd love to have him back. He's 39 and may not give you a full season, but I'd love to have him as our 3rd or 4th starter.

    I’m still absolutely stunned that Dusty ran Singleton out there with the bases loaded and two outs.    Even for Dusty that was some crazy shit.

    Dusty ran him out there because he drew a walk on Friday.

    It makes zero sense to run Singleton out there. I am not being hyperbolic. There is simply no logical or strategic reason to run him out there in that situation.

    He's not a contact hitter, and that's exactly what you needed there--someone who could hit a line drive to the outfield to tie it up. He drew a walk on Friday? Great. There are two outs, and Maldy is hitting behind him, who you ended up pinch hitting for anyway and likely would have if Singleton does draw a walk. So, at worst, you send Diaz up in that spot instead and guarantee an AB for the guy who you really want to hit there. I would have sent Chas up, you know that guy who has been a well-above average MLB hitter all season and homered in Game 4 and has the speed to leg one out if it comes down to it, but either way, you can't give Singleton that AB. 

    Please someone tell me I'm missing something because I am losing my shit thinking our manager really just rolled with Singleton because he thought it would make a cool moment if he came through. 

    Fuck it. We'll either celebrate going to the World Series again tonight or we'll celebrate Dusty not managing the team anymore. I refuse to entertain the possibility they'll bring him back for another season. If we do, we deserve to have the golden era come to an end.

    No he is due to no hit this lineup.... We are fucked with Valdez letting them clinch in G6

    2018 Boston celebrates in Houston
    2019 Washington celebrates in Houston
    2021 Atlanta celebrates in Houston

    We tend to like throwing parties for the other teams..... This one will be the worst 

    I get what you're doing. That said:

    So Famber in game 6 with a short leash?  Can we really afford to let him give up 4-6 runs in >4 innings? If it were an away game maybe, but not at home where the bats don't work.

    He got it done is half the time last time out. Batter-to-batter from the opening pitch?
