Bregman misses a hanger, flies out to LF. Altuve chops to SS to end the inning.

I'm not sure what his problem was. He was throwing hittable pitches in the zone, and they were hitting them. It's not like the umpire or the defense fucked him over.

THAT'S taking the extra base.  Too bad it didn't lead to anything.

Probably pissed that the shift cost him three runs, a chance to go deep, and possibly the game.

He has two outs (plus the squeeze) in the last 10 batters.  Sure, it's the shift.

He gets the routine double play on Vogt, like he should have, and that inning plays out a whole lot differently.  But I'm just bitter.

Sure, but in the first inning he got an out on a screaming line drive that was caught only because Altuve was shifted way over. Who knows how that inning plays out if that's a hit?

Altuve wasn't shifted on that play...he was in normal position.

If Westbrook doesn't go 50/10/10 in every game, they'll be fine.

The crazy thing is, that's a big if.

As crazy as that is.  You can nitpick every spike popping off the bag, but you can't correct obviously blown foul ball calls.

D, H and K are why I've come to hate replay.  The intent is to be able to correct the obviously incorrect calls.  But it's not used that way.  It's now just a means to try to judge a runner's intent, or to nit pick obviously safe runners, while ignoring many of the easily identifiable mistakes that affect the game.

OK, but I think they are just about every call is a judgement really and if the purpose of replays is to avoid the howler decisions they haven't got it right yet, but I think this discussion has been had already.

That's all for LMJ...four innings, five runs, all of them earned.

Yes.  Several horrible calls against the Astros that inning.  It's a no hitter in the 6th...the strike zone is huge from here on out.

With the tying run at 3B, Correa sees six pitches, none of them within a foot of the plate....and punches out at ball 7 in the dirt.

If we can call baserunners out for popping off the bag for a nanosecond on a slide, surely we can do away with the automatic strike on a 3-0 count.

Marwin will have to play SS, which means Aoki, Springer or Marisnick will have to play 1B, and Fiers in the outfield.

Bregman to SS, Marwin to 3b, Fiers to 1b. (My prediction - still hitting, McCann makes it 9-6 with a single)

This will be interested.  I'd put Keuchel somewhere...he's your best fielding pitcher.

Not unusual.  Lots of big leaguers were star players, both pitching and in the field in HS.

I thought Reddick was already out as the DH.  I guess not.  Bregman to SS, Marwin to 3B and Reddick the DH comes in to play 1B.

Kemp is my guess.

If you want to move Gurriel to 3B for the duration of the DL stint, I suppose you could even bring up one of the 1B guys like White or Reed.

If you want to move Gurriel to 3B for the duration of the DL stint, I suppose you could even bring up one of the 1B guys like White or Reed.

Jeff Bagwell is available.

Doubtful. In the post game interview, he seems to think it will be a game or two, if any.

That will be great if it's the case. When I saw it all I could think was Bagwell '94.

I had the game going on my phone tonight while navigating various events with family and friends and was sneaking peaks whenever possible. I simply turned it off when I saw Correa head to the dugout with his hand on the trainers shoulder. Made me sick.

This is good news.
