Yeah the last two games I've been to were tonight and Tuesday against LA. Both were bullpen implosions and the 11th inning in person tonight was like a slow death

Raley is not mediocre. He's done a decent job outside of a few outings.
Can't believe people are defending Raley. I know he's an Ag, but he's not good.
He's the guy you want as a lefty specialist and about the 5th/6th best arm in a bullpen. We're using him in high leverage vs a bunch of righties. His stuff plays well enough and gets a bunch of Ks. He good enough to be a regular in big league bullpen.

For sure. Those games suck.

Yep. And he was super happy to get that ring and be at the parade
Astros are activating Jake Odorizzi prior to today's start and sending Enoli Paredes down as the corresponding roster move. "We hate to do it, but he's never been ready since spring training," Dusty Baker said. "We want him to go down there and find him command and control."

Framber Valdez and Cristian Javier had the exact same pitching lines last night. They were the Spiderman point meme.

Yordan Alvarez is going to hit today, Dusty Baker said. There was "consideration" to put him on the IL "until he showed a lot of progress (recently)," Baker said.

"Hopefully early next week possibly."
