Hopefully our manager uses the players most likely to produce clutch hits.


By the numbers or instinct ?

id let Chas do or die last night, regardless of the numbers

If there are numbers that say Jon Singleton is more likely to produce a clutch hit than Chas McCormick, I'd like to see them.

😂😂😂😂 

This post presupposes those two statements are mutually exclusive, which with Dusty, somehow are not.

Mae need a surly poster in the analytics group !!

 

ld guess, they have a chart of all our hitters vs the opposing staff, and all their hitters vs out hitters. Updated, every series, with some deeper numbers 

I'd guess Dusty is just making shit up to cover his own ass.

The radio pre game has much more substance than the broadcast, they’ve talked about match ups vs specific pitchers, through out the season. 
 
that L sucked, maybe we find some clutch hits today 
Or maybe yalls boy Dubon won't fuck up in the field and put us in the position of having dipshit old man make decisions

You don’t really believe this.

Who was your first half mvp ?

Lost the game before then...when I decided to put Maton in to fuck everything up.

The epitaph for this team if it misses the playoffs it going to be “pinch-hit for the 3rd highest OPS on the team with Jon Singleton”

Nah, it's going to be started the worst player in the majors over a top 5 catcher in baseball.

Dubon had a fucking .701 OPS in the 1st half. He likely wasn't even in the top 5 most important Astros in the 1st half of the season.

His abject refusal to listen to or pay attention to any of the numbers that matter in baseball is truly astounding. 

So Dusty’s really in his “fuck you, pay me” phase, huh?

No worries folks. We got Christian Javier on the bump tonight.

This. Looking at Singletons splits, there isn't anything that is .275 average against righties. I don't know how anyone can get to that number on him vs Holmes. Chas beats him on OPS vs righties and at home. Just a weird choice to sub him for Chas, seems personal against Chas.

Unsolved mystery needs to launch a episode into Dusty not playing Chaz and Diaz during a playoff hunt. Beyond inexcusable for Dusty not to play them.

Playing Dubon after he blew the game over Chas today is a big FU from Dusty

Just think how fucking stupid you have to be to bench two of your top 4 hitters in the middle of the playoffs push when you are barely in the fucking playoffs.

This team deserves to miss the playoffs. We don’t play our best players. It’s fucking absurd. Makes it difficult to care when the club acts like it actively prefers not to win games.

Are you trying to be ironic?

I guess finding it difficult to care is different than not caring.

Yeah. Less invested by the day.

Thanks Mets.

come on Twins 

Correa hitting into a bases loaded DP in an 8th inning tie game did us no favors. 

I mean go ahead and DFA that dude too

Nailed it.

You know Dusty is sad Bannon won't be available to get critical ABs in the next few weeks over Diaz and Chazzz.

Also, anyone with a brain should realize that we got the best out of Dubon and Maton months ago and playing them is malpractice because they are in the shittastic phase of reverting to the mean.

It's becoming an Astros SS tradition. 😝

Crowd is on fire.

Javier sitting at 92 is….interesting.

I really wish ESPN or MLB would allow for regional broadcasts during these games.

I’ve got ford/sparks on audio overlay on mlb.tv but radio is a second ahead which is frustrating

Ford/sparks speculating it’s by design to be able to locate better
