September 9, 20232 yr Whoa, thank you Oakland and Tampa for making sure this shitshow didn't hurt as much as it could've. Maybe let's not suck tomorrow, yeah?
September 9, 20232 yr 25 minutes ago, Gut Wagon said: Snell throws 103 pitches in 6 innings...has some kind of 3-ball count again and again...and escapes with just 3 walks and 2 runs. We not only don't make him pay for being under 60 percent on strikes, we fan 8 times. He's really good, but you have to punish an ace when he's having control trouble. Then again, it's sort of moot if your own staff is getting curbstomped. Umm. This is snell’s season in a nutshell. Take a look at who the NL leader is in walks and ERA But yeah, frustrating the offense we just saw in Arlington couldn’t crack that nut Edited September 9, 20232 yr by UTexasFight Sorry just re-read the post about only drawing 3 walks. Yeah. Annoying. Diaz swung at 2 ball 4’s when we still had a chance to get back in this before his hard lineout to short. But who knows if Maldy would have hit next if he had walked
September 9, 20232 yr League leader in walks and we swing at every pitch in the dirt. Brown blows, his balls are way out of zone and strikes are fat.
September 9, 20232 yr Would have been nice to gain a game on everyone tonight. I hate being thankful that others lose. But another game closer to the finish line. Would like to have a 4 or 5 game lead when we go to Seattle.

We showed good patience, but when he did throw it over the plate we couldn't hit it. Add a little bad luck, such as on the Diaz liner, and that's all she wrote. Hopefully tomorrow ends better.

September 9, 20232 yr So I'm going to the game tomorrow with a 2 and 4 year old. I don't expect them to make it past the 4th inning, but does anyone have any advice or suggestions on things for the kids to do? Should we get there early to let them "run the bases"? Any "Kid Zone" type places we should check out?
September 9, 20232 yr Unfortunately there is no kid zone at mmp. Run the bases is after the game has ended.
September 9, 20232 yr I accept blame for last night's performance. I took a MILF out on a date. Like the Stros, I underperformed. Shame! Today will be better. Astros reclaim MMP.

Man the fuck up. I'm sure some of y'all already saw this. That team is soft and this dumbass saying that publicly is an indictment of their manager and the leaders in the clubhouse.

September 9, 20232 yr I’m watching Mets v Twins and Cohen / Darling we’re talking about the George Kirby comments. Correa was at bat and they added he said he disagreed with Kirby and if he was at least 50% he would always play. That’s not how I remember his days in Houston at all. Dude was always hurt and seemed to take days off at a very high rate.

Dude was always hurt and seemed to take days off at a very high rate. You’re not wrong and that was my issue with him too- yeah you’re great, elite even; but not if you aren’t on the field. That being said, he has 2 forever passes with me and I cannot hate him: 1) being the face of the Astros during the bullshit and 2) Joe Kelly bomb
September 9, 20232 yr Don’t show Chas. Fortunately, with him and Diaz out of the lineup, the odds of getting 3 runs is much lower. Edited September 9, 20232 yr by UTexasFight It’s too bad they chose tucker’s stance instead of Chas’

I just found it funny how his past injury history is now being swept under the rug.
September 10, 20232 yr No posts and we’re three innings in? some other game going on I don’t know about?
