Does this make sense to anyone else?

It means when you come in for the 8th and do your job and then someone else comes in for the 9th, you don't get a save.  If you give up the lead in the 8th you still get a blown save even though you were never going to get a save.

Get it done before Peña comes up.

He’ll have no chance against that slider

Probably Altuve too

Thanks for the explanation!

Need to get Julks out of the lineup and Kessinger off the 26-man roster. There is no need for Kessinger and Dubon to be on the same roster.

Tough one. Would have liked to see Diaz get more than one AB tonight

You’ll get Maldonado and you will love it. 

 

It's like I can read Astros future's mind

6 shutout innings 

bullpen on to hold a 3-0 lead

Make it 7-0 as Rangers OF D looks like shit in the bottom of the 6th and 8 Padres comes to the plate

This is the kind of logic that leads to signing Carlos Lee. 

Counterpoint: Forrest Whitley could have been traded for a box of gold bond powder and the Astros would've won that trade. 

All this Korey Lee talk is totally fucking asinine and you are all massively wrong about his future value or Graveman's current value to this team.

Fuckin A, this is a winner trade.

Yeah, well, 0-1 without Johnny Bench 2.0, aka Korey Lee, in our minor league system

 

Also 0-2 without Madris.  Send down Chas, and let's all get Bligh.

People bitching about Korey Lee are the same jackasses who don't want Bellinger here because of the shit he said after 2017.

If the rays make a move for a top line pitcher, they’ll be damn tough in oct 

We should trade whitely. Or should have years ago when you could at least sell “potential”. Another reason you don’t always hold on to prospects.

I don’t want Bellinger.  Not for what he said, but because of all the post-season Ks.  

Yeah I don't want Bellinger for the giant hole in his swing and inability to lay off back foot breaking balls.  And then the hypocrisy.

I’d gladly take Bellinger if he can continue with the production he’s had so far this year. He’s been one of the best in the league. He’s slashing .319/.369/.546

As long as he’s a locker room fit, but no way he have enough talent for that trade 

I have full faith the cubs will screw up trying to move stroman and bellinger

Talking about JV.

(NTC = no trade clause)

Because the Mets want out of his contract and would be willing to take less in prospect capital if they can foist it on someone else? They may be able to get a better deal from the Dodgers, but the Astros could pull it off if they want JV badly enough.

Edited by Hank Chinaski

If Crane really is willing to spend to win, he should tell the Mets don't worry about covering JV's salary.  That's how we can complete the trade with a lesser farm system.  Hey, he already didn't have to pay for more than half of one of the seasons.

Same idiot said it was a done deal two days ago. He just fishes for responses.

Everything I have heard from the Mets is they are going to pay down contract for better prospects. We shall see. 
I can’t imagine him going to Cincy.

Yeah he should never be cited as a source or even quoted.

That would be smart on their end. They’re in a position to pay for better prospects. If that’s the case, it’ll be interesting to see what teams are willing to give and exactly how much the Mets would pay.

That goes for a lot of guys but people here continue to do it.

The Mets can say what they want, but Verlander is going where he wants to.

Yordan should not bat 5th. 

Don’t you know it’s a law punishable by death if you bat two lefties back to back.  Dusty does.

So stupid.  Even if you insist on separating them, they should be 2nd and 4th

Twitterverse is saying Scherzer to the Rangers is imminent. 

JV must have said no.  Hope the Mets raped them of top prospects.

Ohtani is some kind of cyborg, being back in the lineup a day after having cramps.  Astros would have shut him down for 7 weeks.
