Choke. Gotta be able to throw strikes, and this pitching staff cannot do it.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

Each game, You can only choose one

Good offense
Good bullpen
Good starting pitching

That's basically how this season has been.

Has anyone come up with a single reason not to intentionally walk there to set up the double play?

the Angels have been tough on the Astros.

LAAA has only won 15 games this year...4 against Houston

No chance the bullpen survives the late game either.

I think the elephant in the room that no one (including myself) wanted to acknowledge is "what if the pitching staff regresses in the second half".

This is your contribution to this thread this year.

This offense is a big bag of absolute ****

That and Springer continues to get the lead off spot. He's hitting almost 60 points below his career average and looks totally lost in most of his at bats. He is actually guessing up there and it's very obvious.

Professional pitchers who can't throw strikes. There's nothing worse

I'm a glutton for punishment so I'll probably still watch the next game. Interested in watching Urquidy to see how he looks.

Ask the guy who didn't challenge the throw down to second early in the game. He might have an answer. Then again maybe not.

I think most people here expected our misfit group of rookies to regress. We all just hoped we'd have some guys back off the DL to balance some of it out.

10-9 game

That means game 2 will be 3 runs total by both teams

the Astros are going to make the playoffs, but they are not going to win the division.

the #1 difference between Houston and Oakland is performance on the road.

the A's are 9-8 on the road.

the Astros are a woeful 5-11

and of course as we know...a bad bullpen is a killer on the road...because your offense doesn't get a chance to respond.

the 'stros have been walked off a bunch in 2020

Well now we get the rare opportunity to be the home team while at the same time being on the road.

4-4 against the Angels who have won 15 games this year. We should be beating up on them

Yea I probly said that wrong. It's not that I (we) didn't expect some regression. It's more just remembering how ugly it is to watch that regression play out in real-time. Then again, I remember thinking the same thing before our 8 game winning streak. So wtf do I know.

Like you said, maybe Peacock and Urquidy can help pickup some of the slack.

so Urquidy starts then available bullpen arms would be Peacock and Castellanos? Maybe Parades again?

There are just 0 options for arms to use. Everyone has been used either yesterday or today.

Going to need 5 innings minimum from Urquidy.

Surely you could get an inning out of McCullers.

Dusty already said he is starting 1 of the doubleheader games in Oakland. 0% chance we see LMJ tonight.
