    there's so much to unpack from today, so i'll just start listing them. tuesday was devastating for oakland, today was twice as devastating for the yankees.  they had just started to play better.

    The boy and I were at the last ALCS clincher - we were walking on air for days after Altuve’s walkoff. Today, the boy is 5,000 miles and 7 hours away, with no way to watch. So we did a video chat, w

  • Enjoy it. Old Altuve, no more Correa means this is the very end of the road for your tainted dynasty.

Complete game!! Finally

What an outing. I can never figure out that one word to describe Greinke. Crafty?  Unpredictable? Autistic? Fun?  Baffling? Many others come to mind. I like him a lot.

Autistic. It wraps it all in. The quirkiness. The high level production at a specific skill. The cringy interactions that are amazingly funny. 

im ok with them hitting straw for pay back lol 

That's exactly what it was. He took his pinch like a man.

Greinke got 29/32 batters 1st strike. Damn. If you get ahead, change speeds, and locate in and out of the zone, you don't have to have shitty mechanics to produce 95+ mpg fastballs to get a great hitting team like the Blue Jays out.

didn't get to see the game and can't find any highlights with the HBP.

Circumstances?

Straw was crushing the ball so they needed vengeance. He had 2 infield hits and a double that hit the shortstops glove and slowed down enough the cd couldn’t get it in time. Tour de force for miles. 

Thanks.

Was just wondering how a game like like that might have gotten chippy or if it was just an uh-oh HBP.

Sometimes when the pitcher is getting buttfucked they will send a message pitch to let everyone know to not dig in too much. That was my sense.

Stupid unwritten rules of baseball. “Oh you’re winning by too much, be nice!” Like that flipping out about swinging at 3-0 in the 9th with a big lead.

Fuck that, these guys make millions of dollars to win. Considering some contracts have incentives, an 8th inning HR in a 9-1 game might be the difference between hitting a certain HR number for an incentive and losing out on money. 

Baseball players need to grow up.  Also don’t throw a 3-0 meatball if you don’t want it to leave the park.  There’s rampant cheating the last 3 decades but it’s all about “the love of the game” and sportsmanship BS.

Long time lurker 👀here.  Decided as a true Astros fan its finally time to become a poster.  Over the years I've truly enjoined all of your terrible opinions and melt downs when we sucks. 

Couple things about me:

1) Hate Myles Straw

2) 1 time share2care winner

3) Jose Altuve is the best Astros of all time.  

4) If you leave the Stros you're dead to me.  Screw you Springier.

Those are terrible takes. Go back to lurking. 
Just kidding. Welcome.

This is a pretty damn stout lineup. I personally need Yordan to start hitting HRs again.

Your take number 4 is really not nice.

And #3, at this point in time, is just objectively wrong. It’s Bagwell at peak and right now Biggio for longevity. 
I love Altuve but he’s probably 3rd right now, maybe even 4th behind Berkman. 
he’s moving up the lot and I expect him to end his career no lower than #2. 

Went over here to see if scraps checked in yet. Surprised he hasn’t. I will say- that was a spectacular throw by Gurriel the younger. 

We can all agree on point 1? Myles Straw isn't even good at the one tool he is supposed to have.

Yeah. Shit like this should  cost him some playing time. But it probably won’t. 

 

I like Diaz and all,  it if we had to have a Cuban end up with a broken hand I’m glad it was him and not one of the other 2. 
straw gonna go yakety yak grand slam here. 

straw is a dumb mother fucker, well known fact

 

that diaz hbp was ugly 

if Diaz isn't out for a while I think he will have dodged a hollow tip bullet because that sounded and looked really fucking bad

This is a really fucking frustrating game. I’d be shocked if we win this one. We’d been pretty crisp lately when trying to win (Dusty inexplicably punting the Thursday game) but this is not that. 

How many chances is this guy gonna get?  He needs to be sent down to the minors.
