Bottom of the order has left 6 on base tonight and are 2 for 12 with 8 Ks. The AAA bats are going to give us nights like these. So happy we are 19 games over .500.
Tied at 6-6. Altuve, our goat.
Ummm…that sucked.
Yah painful coming back just to give up a grand slam in extras smh
At some point, Espada has to learn that Hader going 2 innings provides a high chance of failure.
Why did Hader pitch that 2nd inning he hasn’t done that all year ?
I think he did it a couple of times early in the season without an issue, but it’s just not a good plan.
Joe is gonna wear Hader down with these 2 inning appearances.
100% and I agree with Pollard that all it’s doing is putting extra wear on his arm. Need him to have something left in the tank in October.
So Jake just injured his calf jogging out to CF before the game.
Unreal.
Jeez. Seems like that hot streak is evening out.
Ramirez feasting on Astros pitching…again.
Hummel
Trammell
Short
A combined 0-8 with 7k’s.
Edit.
Swept by the GD Indians……at home.
So much for momentum after a great road trip.
Cleveland sweeps the Astros. Now the Rangers come into Minute Maid park on Friday.
It’s bound to catch up to us. No Walker, no Meyers, and no Pena means no bueno.
The injuries are one thing, but there has to be a reset on the Astros’ protocol for returning players from injury. It seems like there are at least as many immediate reinjuries as there are successful returns.
Maybe it’s more a case of players’ giving misleading feedback, but they have to be better.
Why is Shay Whitcomb up. Espada never gives him a chance to settle in.
Sports radio reporting Meyers has an Achilles injury. I feel for Jake. He was playing great ball and to have this happen is truly a setback for him and the team.
With the history of our medical staff and misdiagnosis and or lying, you have to wonder if it was always an Achilles injury.
Awful to hear…
