True, but most players also get the greenlight to swing away on a 3-1 count. And that wasn't a bad pitch to swing at.
They were really close to the zone though. I don't blame him for not leaving it up to the ump. He just can't hit worth a damn this season.
Nah, I saw the replay. Altuve would've been out easily had he tried to score. That being said, that was pathetic to only come out of that inning...
A reliever with a 7.22 ERA? If they can't score at least one run off of him, I give up.
I don't give a damn what his salary is. They cannot go into next season with him the fulltime starter at 1B.
Good call sitting Yordan, Dusty.
Is Dusty allowed to pinch hit Yordan, move him to DH, and switch Diaz from DH to 1B? Not that he will, of course. I'm just curious.
By being removed for Bryan Abreu.
It really does look like they've quit. And we know how much heart a lot of these guys have, so I have to wonder if Dusty has killed the spirit of...

Another Astros batter swinging in the dirt.
I keep going back to the early season game they lost in extra innings when the score was tied and Dusty could've easily had Hensley bunt over the...
Nope. Dusty doesn't believe in small ball. There's a reason they suck in 1 and 2 run games this year.
What matters is making the damn playoffs. They're not gonna do that if they can't score and it ain't helping that Dusty ran out a lineup with...
Won't matter if the Astros get shut out.
And Toronto won. The Astros' playoff odds ain't looking so good right now.
I also go back to an extra inning game early in the season. It was maybe against the White Sox or Tigers at home. We were in extra innings, the...
But the Astros are blowing any chance of having a lead in the division going into the final couple weeks.
Diaz should be starting every game, but we had the 1-8 guys from the so-called death lineup out there tonight and they stunk. And Maldy got on...
As bad as Dusty is managing the team, the guys have to hit. Altuve, Bregman, and Tucker did nothing tonight. Maldy at least had a double.
