August 22, 20196 yr I blame the new netting. Team has been in a funk since their inception Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk
August 22, 20196 yr We were fucking in on the -600That’s all I got to explain the last two innings on the bases Then they really are dumb. It’d be more profitable to be in on the tigers at +451
August 22, 20196 yr Fuck every single offensive player that puts on an Astros uniform. Fuck every single one.
August 22, 20196 yr Two stupid base running brain farts. Brantley could be at the plate with a runner on second. WTF? Stretching for 3rd with 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th?
August 22, 20196 yr Author What a shitty loss. Verlander needs to chew out Tuve and Chirinos for that shit.
August 22, 20196 yr Then they really are dumb. It’d be more profitable to be in on the tigers at +451 Have you seen us run the bases?
August 22, 20196 yr Just an embarrassment. No excuse for that laydown. Edited August 22, 20196 yr by Gut Wagon
August 22, 20196 yr Can any of you guys explain what the fuck just happened? Maybe Verlander should just sit the next one out

August 22, 20196 yr That trying for the cycle was some selfish ass bullshitThey didn’t have a good shot of Pettis the entire play but just as chirinos started his slide it looked like he still had his hands up for the stop sign as a form of “what the fuck are doing “ protest. Otherwise he would have been waving his arms towards home plate to get chirinos to slide to the inside of the bag with the throw coming in on the outside (not that it mattered. Doesn’t matter where you slide when the throw beats you by 3 steps.)

August 22, 20196 yr Altuve takes the bat out of Yordan's handsChrinos takes the bat out of Uncle Mike's hands Stupid and selfish baseball

August 22, 20196 yr Maddest I’ve been after a game in a long, long time.I have to go back all the way to Sunday, August 11, 2019 to match the anger I feel after tonight’s game
August 22, 20196 yr Altuve takes the bat out of Yordan's handsChrinos takes the bat out of Uncle Mike's hands Stupid and selfish baseballHinch taking the bat out of Brantley’s hands the first 8 innings didn’t help either.

Stupid baserunning is not the same as a bad outing. The equivalent would be if I advocated JV chewing someone out after a golden sombrero, which I wouldn’t.
August 22, 20196 yr I know he wants to pitch well into his 40s, but it ain't gonna be here with half his starts at mmp.Move back to the DOME.
August 22, 20196 yr I know he wants to pitch well into his 40s, but it ain't gonna be here with half his starts at mmp.Move back to the DOME.He will if they bring back the old ball.And I’m not putting it past him to re-invent himself to pitch more like Greinke if he cant maintain high 90s for a few more yearsIt’s hard to pinpoint any one start where a guy wins or loses the cy young ...and say what you will about W-L records for SPs these days but 16-4 on August 21 looks a whole lot better than 15-5.

There’s your equivalent on the other side. Ah, who am I kidding? I hope not a bad word has been spoken in that clubhouse (other than being pissed they lost) and that DJ Springer is keeping the boys loose.
August 22, 20196 yr Hinch needs to get over himself and talk things out with Tucker. There is no reason for him to be in AAA while Reddick, Marisnick, and Straw waste ABs.
August 22, 20196 yr JD Davis with a walk off for the Mets. No offense , but I don’t careI do care if Derek Fisher or Teoscar Hernandez hit a GW HR and/or Giles gets a save tonight.
August 22, 20196 yr Hinch needs to get over himself and talk things out with Tucker. There is no reason for him to be in AAA while Reddick, Marisnick, and Straw waste ABs.Hinch and Tucker have beef?
August 22, 20196 yr https://www.espn.com/chalk/story/_/id/27435865/astros-stunned-historic-upset-sportsbooks Three of the worst upsets in the past 15 years belong to AJ Hinch.

I remember reading earlier in the season that there may have been some clubhouse tension with Tucker, but never saw anything substantive about it. I can't imagine it is something so big that it is impacting roster moves - right?

Not that we ended up having to...just asking. I'm inclined to think there's something else at work here, though I have no idea what.
August 22, 20196 yr No word on the corresponding moves, but someone from the 40-man will have to go. Have to think Deetz or Guduan will get DFA'd. I'd lean towards Guduan given his "behavioral issues." Edited August 22, 20196 yr by Seasick Sailor
August 22, 20196 yr Tucker hasn't come up because he hasn't hit all that well and the guy he would be replacing has better offensive projections than him and is a better fielder.

I'd lean towards Guduan given his "behavioral issues." Toro has very good hitting stats in minors the since the AFL last year. Interesting to see how he does, being a switch hitter is helpful as well. At least it means no more Mayfield starting. Edited August 22, 20196 yr by HtownHorn
