I say we halfway fire Hudgens. Let him coach on the road and hire someone else to coach them on the road.

Cool throw a meatball in there to chase in the dirt odor. Plus isn't a change up more effective after they've seen a fastball or two.

Because it's more than just 15 pitches. It's also how many time he got up and down.

BP arms just can't shut down and warm up again as easily as a starter.

Plus you're replacing with your best arm. Blame him for coming in and grooving one...er...two now

I think it's time to admit that Devenski isn't nearly as special/dominant as we made him out to be

Stros aren't working pitch counts like they did in Arlington. A shade under 15 per inning for Darvish last night, Martinez with 13.6 tonight so far. The way we're hitting we need to get into their pen.

Contrast that to last series with the Rangers, pitch counts were way in our favor I'm pretty sure.

Think the book is out on Devo.

Don't chase the change. Wait until he throws it for a strike and hammer the fack out of it.

In a normal game I think it's the right move. His velocity is shown to drop significantly wth multiple innings of work.

But with an overworked bullpen, I think he should have left Harris in. Only 15 pitches for 4 outs, he was dominating the batters, and you have a good shot to get 7 outs from him.

I think stuff like this is crap. He threw 15 pitches and dominated. He would have had to "get up" twice.

We are immediately falling behind every count. Dude is pounding the zone early.

He got up in the pen, got up after the 1 pitch out, then would've had to get up once more.

That's a lot for a guy used to getting up once.

And I may even rather lose a game than go into extras tonight.

A) The chance of winning for us decreases immensely
B) Yeah we can't handle that

I'm not mad at you or what you're saying... but these dudes are in the damn major leagues. What would it hurt to give him one batter and see how he looks? We need to play these games to win, and I feel like right now we are playing not to lose.

Hinch better start making the team stay in hotels when they have a homestand. Anything to get rid of these embarrassing offensive showings at home.

I know but that's like asking a closer to get a 6 out save because it's just 20 pitches and he's a ML pitcher. That's just not what they do. They're bodies and minds just don't work that way. It's not as easy as simply pitching XX pitches.

And I think we are absolutely playing not to lose. We're so decimated right now we have to just tread water and hope to steal one. Plus he's got to think about the rest of the series with Martes going to tomorrow.
