  1. That’s how it’s playing out. But the only choice for Chas was to try and sac fly in the run. Otherwise it would get stranded. He had to swing at crap and try
  2. He had to. Him walking accomplishes nothing when there’s full on trash behind him.
  3. Chas not getting anything to pop up. Ragans trying to walk him to get to these two chumps in the 8 and 9 hole.
  4. Catcher got scared the fat boy was gonna truck him so he missed the ball. Can’t blame him.
  5. Rays took care of business.
  6. Didn’t like the defense personnel/ match ups
  7. Dontrelle had to say that dumb shit about having to throw strikes to get us out because we’re not chasing… and four guys proceed to strike out while swinging at what would be balls.
  8. It’s unfathomable to me that you can have some bat 1st in the order and then put them at 9th two days later. That’s some little league shit.
  9. Enjoy trick or treating this October. Again. Maybe we’ll join you this year, but I’ll probably need to buy a new costume. It’s been a while.
  10. No. Not because of this sweep. What’s concerning is that we’re in a dogfight for a winnable division and we have a manager that is playing suboptimal bats every game and making stupid decisions. And it’s not just one tweak, it’s multiple. There is zero fucking reason dubey should be playing today. Yanier should starts. And don’t get me started on dumb shit like that challenge on fan interference. Make it make sense for me please. As Tom Herman once said, winning is hard. It’s even harder when a stubborn dummy is in charge of decision making.
  11. Fuck ESPN for celebrating this dude.
  12. Yo dusty. I’m pretty sure the analytics say dubon needs to sit the fuck down for Chas here. Wake up
  13. This is the stupidest shit ever. He was playing the odds that Singleton would draw a walk (that .275 has to be on base pct, nfw it is batting avg)?!? So Peña could fuck it up after him? Seriously?!?! Gtfo dusty.
  14. or Dusty can not just play a shit lineup with so many auto outs. I mean seriously, Peña surprises us with a double, and there was no doubt that the triumvirate of suck Meyers, Maldo, and Dubon would never bring him in. I get that Altuve getting hurt couldn’t be predicted. But there is no fucking reason Meyers should ever see the field unless it’s an emergency. Makes zero sense that both Chas and Brantley’s bats sat on the bench the whole game (besides the last at bat).
  15. Dumb comparison. The only thing Singleton can hit better than Uncle Mike is a bong.
  16. They still have a series with the dodgers as well as 7 of their last 10 against the rangers with a series against us sandwiched in the middle. Frankly, if they win the division they’ll have earned it. We just need to win every series, which is doable, and the division should be ours while the rangers and mariners beat each other up. I was hoping Arizona would fade but they keep winning. That final series against them will be a dogfight as both teams seem like they’ll have something to play for.
  17. That’s on dusty. He needs to wake up from his fucking nap. It’s clear maldy is uncomfortable after taking a foul in the groin. Diaz is gonna bat next inning anyways. Should have just put him in.
  18. I literally love Framber Valdez
  19. Fact: The Astros have won a World Series every year they’ve traded for Justin Verlander. Here’s to keeping that streak alive.
  20. Baseball gods make it right
  21. I think you mean it’s frencho
  22. Wow. One of those performances you’ll never forget.
  23. Lmao at the idea of a seasoned exec with decades of valuable business insight gambling a golden parachute on a hunch when he has better alternatives (ie delay vote and keep whipping). A real vet doesn’t let that vote happen unless he knows he’s gonna win. At the very least he could vote last to ensure he’s on the winning side. We’ve seen all series, it’s all about self interest and self preservation with those people. Of course him voting last isn’t as dramatic for tv.
  24. Maybe, but then Frank, who was aligned with Mattson and had the ability to delay the vote, let the vote go on. He would never do that unless he knew for certain Mattson was going to win. He couldn’t let the kids win, not get his golden parachute, and what then get fired? So Shiv’s last second flip flop makes no sense.
  25. Tricking Greg to leak it and then giving him grief for doing it is exactly the type of move I’d expect from someone like Mattson. But again, doesn’t really matter. It was super reckless and not realistic for Mattson to concede Shiv’s vote - and he did that by offering the job to Tom before the vote. It was gonna leak somehow, which puts the whole vote in jeopardy for him. A risk no one in that seat would ever take. This show was so well written, so my view of the series doesn’t change. But I felt like the writers took shortcuts here for sake of drama… which is fine.
