Fuck Pujols 

98 mph fastball to the nut basket next ab. Bring in someone expendable for the pitch. Profit.

You were saying?

We need to go back to the tried and true strategery of staying in place and waiting for a home run at this rate.

There isn’t a team in baseball history that has lost as many runs as the Astros running bases the last 5 years.  It’s fucking uncanny.   You’d think a team with so many stats hounds, they’d figure it out.  

I guess Pudge Rodríguez is catching for the Angels now? Or do we just fucking suck dick on the base paths?

And what’s amazing is we have so many fast players.  Our fucking catcher and first basemen are two of the fastest in their positions in baseball.  

I bet we piss away 20 runs a year on the bases.

they talked about it the other night.

the reason we "don't" steal many bases is because you have to make it 3/4 times to make it worth it with the numbers, against getting those bases from other means.  i would think stretching for an extra base is the same math (especially with 2 outs at 3rd fucking base).

before tonight we were at 71% (not counting all the bullshit times we just get thrown out doing dumb stuff).

huge to get trout to pop up there

great job Harris

We don’t lose runs on stealing.  We lose them on dumbfuckery running the bases.  And have forever. 

Jeff Bagwell was probably the best and smartest baserunner I’ve ever seen. Our whole teams needs to visit with him. Has zero to do with speed. 

damn that was a nice play by simmons

Tuve didn't get thrown out at 2nd.  Progress?

Yeah.  That’s as good of a play as I’ve ever seen.  

Ausmus looks like he should be home lounging on the couch.

Yordan is 22 and doesn’t play the field, a day off sounds ridiculous.

On behalf of the standings and my fantasy baseball team, this.  Christ, man, he works for about 10 minutes a night.  Get him in there.

maybe they should just put that guy on

Rondon in a 2 1 run game doesn't seem ideal.

Our pen often time pitches better with a 1 run lead. Anything else is a loss waiting to happen

Getting through the Rondon inning with the lead feels like a win.  Now we need some insurance with Trout due up 4th in the 9th.

That was an ugly inning. Hope we get good Osuna tonight. Would have been nice if we hadn't had to use him last night,  especially since we started the inning with a 6 run lead. 

You guys in Texas with SmartDNS, which of their server addresses to you use?
I can’t seem to keep it from blacking our LA area games (and thus, ours tonight).
