Not scoring with the bases loaded is going to cost us this game, isn't it?

    Pretty perfect game to take a three year old to. Was over before he got too bored and got to see a couple homers. Thanks @UTPhil2006 for the suggestion about the first game certificate, had plenty of

    I’m just glad I survived another season of being the official thread starter. Thank you all for your continued support in this emotional time.   In more ways than one with tonight’s result:

Can't put anyone away

If we are still tied after this inning I will consider this a win.

 

No matter what happens, this should be Pressly's last batter.

Espada loves to not use his better defensive players when it's time to use your better defensive players.

Maybe Pressly should stop throwing that slider.

Change up he couldn't throw for a strike

two back to back lousy at bats here

Hader ain’t wrong.  That is a shitty mound.  

The dirt is way too dry. 

10 pitches, 3 outs, nice save by Hader, and the Astros improve to 12-19 in 1 run games. 

Keep winning series

So good Hader or bad Hader? 

Sv-Situation = good Hader.

7-1 road trip so far with 7 in a row. Without an idiot for manager we would be looking to sweep the road trip tomorrow.

man, i remember getting good Hader from my wife before we got married

If you're anyone in the organization, what's still telling you Pressly is the answer in the 8th? I know they still want him to be, but this has become a predictable pattern of fail. Give Ort a chance. We need to see if he can handle the job, so we don't have to throw him or another new guy in there cold in October. Pressly will cost us big if we keep trotting him out there. 

Pressly should endorse an antacid or blood pressure medication.  And I wouldn't buy it because fuck him

When we hot we hot.

Updated MLB top 30 prospects came out, I'm all in on Anderson Brito

It can be Ort, Abreu, Hader.. Ort doesnt have to be the 8th inning guy. 

It’s August, stay in first and we need to guys to find their groove before the playoffs

Wagner 2-2, 2 doubles and 2 rbi tonight. Making it look easy.

Astros traded him to keep the heat off Altuve 

If you cut our injuries in half, this team is a rolling ball of butcher knives

Honestly, we need to put Abreu, Presley and Hader all on the 15 day DL (separate times) and just deal with that before the playoffs. All have been over thrown by a fair bit and could use the time on the shelf. 

Wulaw-Your deep dive into the Astro organization returns was incredible. I for one greatly appreciate your effort. Very interesting read.

Congrats to Charlie F’n Morton !!!!!


 

he’s one we should have kept 

No way he’d accept it but I’d be down for 34 to 35 range for a two year deal ….

He’s had a really rough year and killed a ton of his prospect stock, right?  Here’s hoping he figured something out. 

Ort is pitching so well. Whitely also needs to get more innings and call him up in about a month.

He’s 24 and spent most of the year repeating AA-he didn’t have much stock to begin with.

Yeah I didnt phrase that quite right. 
I think there were some people hoping on him coming into this year and pegging him as a guy that they thought was going to break out into being a legit prospect by mastering AA ball and announcing himself and that didn’t happen, obviously. 
24 isn’t old for AA in general but it’s old for someone regarded as a legit prospect for sure. 

All that talk about Kikuchi not even cracking a potential playoff rotation looks pretty silly now.
