November 3, 20214 yr Fried has had several horrid outings, you knew he was due for a gem. Bad timing for us in all areas. Baseball gods still hate us
November 3, 20214 yr Fried is on like 40 pitches through 4. If he can get this to the 7th then we'll see those three lefties in a row. We need something soon, dammit.

November 3, 20214 yr 9 minutes ago, Mo Horn said: This, along with shaky starting pitching and missing LMJ, is a recipe for losing. It's almost as if reality caught up to a GM that did little for glaring pitching needs since taking over until some mediocre moves at the trade deadline. To be fair, some of those pitchers have really stepped up in the post-season. The team has gotten farther than I expected with this pitching roster. But it is rare for a team to win a title by hitting their way to overcome a mediocre staff. Bats are going to go cold at times at the top level of a WS. And Strom can only do so much with what he's given. I've said all season that Click looked to be building a team that could make the playoffs, not win a title. He got closer than I expected, but ultimately it still seems true. The better trade deadline GM looks to be taking home a trophy tonight. Not over yet. We'll see.

November 3, 20214 yr Our lineup is feast or famine this series. We looked balanced to start the playoffs until now.

Atlanta got a bunch of jags who have gotten hot at the right times. Anyway, lots of game left to be giving up over a 3 run deficit.

That’s because we’re Houston. If we were up 3-1 we would think we’re about to blow up and down 3-1 we know it’s over.

The better trade deadline GM looks to be taking home a trophy tonight. Not over yet. We'll see. The relievers he brought in had shaky starts, but overall have done a great job in the playoffs. He did nothing to improve the starting pitching and that's come back to bite us.

We'll see.He could have acquired the top 5 arms on the market and we still would have lost this series with the bats hitting like this.
November 3, 20214 yr I’m never one to throw in the towel but man when the only hard hit ball through 4 is from Maldonado, it’s not a good omen.
November 3, 20214 yr I'd like to have seen Altuve steal third in the first inning. Put some pressure on. But we'll never know how that would have played out. Just know we need a spark soon to wake up the team and the fans.
November 3, 20214 yr Fuk I hate thinking all positive after a win. Coming home and thinking our guys will go on an absolute tear to even this series. Nope.

November 3, 20214 yr soon to be 4-0 by the look of things. Fucking cannot walk the leadoff man. Just stupid.

November 3, 20214 yr 2 minutes ago, Longhornlove said: Actually surprised we made it this far without LMJ. Yeah, getting to game 6 was a minor miracle with the way the starters looked heading in to the playoffs and then losing Lance in the first round.
November 3, 20214 yr Fuck that. Houston wasted a metric shit-ton of great pitching, grand slams or not.
November 3, 20214 yr 1 minute ago, Longhornlove said: Starting pitching has been about as bad as I have ever seen. But the bullpen's been magnificent. The Braves have scored 6, 2, 2, 3, 5, 3. If our offense shows up, we're not even playing tonight.
November 3, 20214 yr Just now, Longhornlove said: Suprised Javier is getting away with all these hanging sliders. Not for long.
November 3, 20214 yr Then he hangs a fastball.........walk home run, seen that all throughout the playoffs.
November 3, 20214 yr I’m going to have a hard time watching the next hour and a half of Braves suck fest.
November 3, 20214 yr 9 minutes ago, Longhornlove said: Actually surprised we made it this far without LMJ. This is facts we knew but were hoping for the best. We were already short handed without JV or ZG and then LMJ goes down.
November 3, 20214 yr Their guys don’t miss the meatballs and ours turn them into dinks or GIDP. Pitching and hitting both just bad enough to lose.
