    Melton .154/.410 makes Maldy look like a good hitter.

    it can’t honestly hurt at this rate. Will it adversely affect the things we already can’t/don’t do?

    If Crane, Brown and Co want to make changes in the offseason, by all means please go for it.

    There's zero upside to doing it now.

    100% alarming.

    I still don't understand how he's #2 prospect in the astros' farm system.

    Is the talent drop off that big going from Brice Matthews to Melton and whoever's below Melton?

    Baseball is weird but this team just doesn't have the look of a team that can do much. I don't believe in a lot of the components of this team (manager, some of the players they will have to depend on, etc.) Imo it would be very improbable for this team to go on much of a run.

    If you are a pitcher, you don't ever have to throw Altuve a strike, just throw sliders and he will swing and flail and miss.

    Haven't seen it, assuming it's from the same LCF roof area that it always does?

    3 runs in 21 innings. You can watch and predict the outs.

    I've got Crystal Palace on the other screen and I'm wondering if they'll outscore the Stros.

    Up 1-0 at halftime.

    When hunter pitches good, offense can't score.

    When hunter pitches bad, offense can't score.
