    Kemp has been really good. Like I’ve said previously, just feel like he makes things happen.

    Reddick's defense is very desirable and it isn't like Reddick isn't capable of hitting well.

    What's Reddick hitting this year like .230?

    Going to be difficult to hold a 1 run lead on the Bo Sox at their place.

    I used to roll the eyes when boston fans would infiltrate MMP. Happy to hear Astros fan cheering loudly in Boston. Now if they could play some lil' troy for us that would be trill'.

    Going to be difficult for the Red Sox to score on McHugh, Pressly, Rondon, and Osuna.

    There’s definitely a huge contingent of Houstonians in Boston... that traveled up there today for the Texans game. They do a fairly decent job on social media publicizing their activities, and its quite impressive that they’re as big and organized for a franchise that hasn’t done much in awhile (Texans).

    Huge bonus that the Astros would happen to be in town at the same time.

    Not sure if the announcers mentioned that or not... somebody in the production truck needs to do their research.

    Hate walks to bottom of the order to set up top of the order.

    Nj putting McHugh on the short leash. You know he would've walked another guy and given up a 3 run bomb at some point.

    Looked like Pressly didn't want any of Betts.

    One, if not two, of those pitches was a strike.

    A walk isn't terrible though. Betts is awesome and sets up the DP.

    I do want to know it McHugh is a big game pitcher that will be asked to get key strikeout opportunities in the post-season.

    I also want to know if Pressly is better to start innings or in between innings. Seems like the former, which makes me wonder why Hinch didn’t just bring him in to start with.

    Why take out McHugh he was pitching fine... you go to the pen and you never know what you’re gonna get and now garbage from Pressly
