Now Angel Hernandez is trying to explain something...which is sure to be fucked up...
This is gold right here.

2
Now they're saying the inning is over...no one knows what the fuck is going on.
Hidden ball trick on Cano?

Based on what I've seen this series, Zunino has looked vulnerable to the high heat, even though his bat is scorching in June.

His uppercut swing may have something to do with that.

Fucking Giles. Can't do this come playoff time!!!!!

5
Is it just me or does Devo walk like he's the biggest boss in the building? Pretty funny to me. Anyways nice inning there by him.

6
Nice swing Jake, I'm sure Springer is saying he would have done the same!

7
No kidding. I get up at 4:30 and I'm dragging even just watching a few innings. I also find myself waking up at 1:00 or 2:00 to check the score.
I'm up at 4 for work so watching 1 inning is a stretch for me. At least we'll be back home next week, and I may be able to catch the last few innings of tomorrows game.

Reddick off the DL, Fisher on the next flight to Fresno.
Hell of a job by Fisher in the 5 games he played. Hate to see him go back down but it had to happen.

What the actual fuck was that? Another horrible call.

This ump is a serious slapdick

42
Did McCann really just steal?

43
What a shitburger of an inning.

44
Fuckin Marwin, what an underachiever. I was expecting a homer.

45
I hadn't tuned in at that point. But when Preston Wilson said "Infielders aren't used to having their back to the infield." I was done.

Uh, almost any popup to shallow center both the SS and the 2nd baseman are running with their backs to the infield. What are you talking about, you goon?
They're awful. It's much better on mute, trust me.

46
Peacock to start Monday, Fiers to the pen according to McTaggart. That's some good news.

47
This broadcast is fucking insufferable. Good God.
I knew it was really bad when one of those knuckleheads said "ground ball to Altuve, no Correa. Pardon me that was Schoop."

48
That Machado fella can hit too. I bet his BBQ is shit though.
Watching him take BP yesterday was pretty crazy, he was going train tracks in left center quite a bit. Took quite a few to the top of the fake ivy too.

49
It's Sipp day, yay

Nope, still pitching for the astros. Cabrera lines a single to left and the tigers have runners on 1st and 2nd with no outs.

I'm pretty sure this is really Fiers pitching this inning for the Tigers..

58

59
I'm sick of watching this shlub pitch every five days.

60
Springer's face when he runs just looks like he's whispering "ohfuckohfuckohfuckohfuck" to himself the whole time.
This is true, looks like he's running for his life as he turns a bag.

61
YULI

62
Yes.
Did you see what Hinch said when asked about how long he may be sidelined? That's what made me think this.

63
Not feeling well.
Interesting that he's sick and not starting but available off of the bench. Am I crazy to think Hinch may be sending a message by benching him after not running out that play on the ground ball he hit last night?

64
Giles slams the door, sweet.

65
What was that tale someone came up with on here about Correa and his huge dick? Anyways, I feel like he's due for a homer soon.

66
That little dude can flat out hit, sure is something to watch.

McCann to the 7 day concussion DL, retro to yesterday. Damn it Bobby.

70
Springer and Bregman getting some rest I assume?

71
There have certainly been worse seasons in recent memory.
Yeah for sure. I may be in the minority here but I don't even think they're playing their best ball yet either.

72
27-12 with Keuchel and McCullers up next, not too shabby boys.

73
Altuve was wandering around the dugout to tell everyone about his HR.
He does what he wants.

74
Oh hell yeah! That's good stuff

No worries. I think my sarc-meter was actually set too high. The last Lagunitas likely fixed that. I'll be curious who pitches the 9th. For whatever reason this still feels like a save situation to me....
I want to say something but I'll hold out for a while.

77
This game is far from over.
Exactly my point, Hinch has used him in situations like these though. Even closer games in fact.

78
Peacock? I thought for sure we'd see Sipp again.

85
Cortana just prompted me that the Astros won before MLB.TV told me that.
First world problems

86
Booom

87
Also, tip of the cap to Hinch for the defensive replacement in the OF from Aoki to Marisnick. He does this quite a bit and tonight it payed off. Aoki may or may not have made that play, but Jake is definitely the better defender.

88
Giles is making me nervous.
I really hate the fact that he makes everyone nervous just about every time he pitches. It gets really old.

Jake saved the day though, go Stros go!

She gone! Correa is heating up and it's quite nice to see.

90
Giles wasn't dicking around today.

91
Move Correa out of the cleanup spot.
Oops, he's thinking otherwise.

92
Why the FUCK is Eric Gordon taking a shot in the last minute of OT??????
Probably because we can't even give the ball to our best player without him turning it over. Who else do you want to shoot it?

93
No Kawhi or Parker but the Spurs just keep on coming.
That Popovich knows what the hell he's doing, that's for sure.

94
Good game for Sipp and Gregerson to get some work.
That's not funny.

Correa is looking good, man!
Maybe he shouldn't be sent to AAA huh?

He was getting killed in the ratings actually discussing sports.  "Sports radio" these days is really "guy talk radio" for the 20-45 male demographic.  Of the 15-20 hours per week those afternoon idiots at 610 are on the air, they spend about an hour talking about sports and the rest of the time discussing gambling, the women they've had sex with, and making fun of old people and disabled kids.  They play to the steroid and vomit, barbed-wire tattoo crowd whose attention span is that of cocker spaniel.  I guess 790 wanted more of that. They got it in Josh Innes.
Yeah you're right, Charlie was all sports. That's the only reason why I listen to a sports radio station. It sucks that sports radio has come to what these guys talk about all day.

Do you consider Trumbo an OF, because I don't. If you could open Crane's wallet for an OF, who would you get?
Me either on Trumbo, I was just listing a few FAs. Of everyone that will be a FA, it would probably come down to Reddick or Cespedes. A lefty would be ideal though with our right heavy lineup.

pitching way, way more important than a bat.
Definitely, I agree. But while there are a few OF bats that are going to be FA, it would be silly not to try to get one. Don't you think?

Exactly. Signing someone for the sake of spending money is senseless.
I don't think it's signing someone just to spend money. We could use another OF bat, and obviously some pitching. I think our lineup is good but one more good hitter makes it that much better.

Yeah it's not great, especially for pitching. But here are a few names as far as non pitchers. Cespedes, Encarnacion, Trumbo, Bautista, Fowler. Aroldis Chapman is also a FA, but I'm sure they are still holding their breath on Giles..

Crane said "We'll spend the money when it's time, but right now is not the time," he says. "Once our minor league system is filled in, we'll move up into the top five or 10 in payroll." This was during the 2013 season I believe. I think the time is now to start spending big. We have a good core of youth talent, if Crane doesn't spend big money this offseason, I don't think he ever will. Thoughts?

I like Bregman at third and wouldn't mind seeing Gurriel at first (that creates an outstanding infield range-wise. Especially if they keep shifting everyone out of position every at bat). This makes Marwin the super uber-spiers sub he is. That leaves only LF. Cespedes...? Trade anyone else not needed for Sale and resign Castro.  Along with Gattis catcher is set. Plenty of people to cycle through the DH spot while Marwin gets regular at bats. I'll miss Valbuena though. He was very solid defensively and carried this team back in to contention this summer.
Edwin Encarnacion at DH would be okay with me. I'm going to miss Valbuena too. He was having a great year until the injury, I hope he does well wherever he lands in the offseason.

I used to listen to 610 in the  morning when they had Nick Wright. He was one obnoxious prick, but damn if that guy didn't know sports. John Lopez is, and will always be, a sports moron. Without Wright, they have no legitimate sports knowledge. I listen to the Matt and Lance, the "Proper Gentleman" now. Neither are as smart or informed as Wright, but they've apparently watched a baseball/football/basketball/soccer/tiddlywinks what have you game before. So they're miles ahead of the idiots left on 610.
Yeah I used to listen to Nick and Lopez too. Didn't Nick go to New York or something like that?

What do you guys think about Charlie? He seems like the only one that can talk about baseball for more than about five minutes.

The other side of it is that if he's ruled it a wild pitch why do you call time when runners are running the bases?  He fucked that up too.

So just a few weeks ago the Astros had about 5 guys hitting under .220. Now we only have one. (I'm not calling Marisnick out, he has been getting on base well and playing outstanding defense as always). Anyway it sure is nice to see the bats doing well. I hope Rasmus can turn it around when he gets back.
