Why do Astros' pitchers routinely use the outside of the plate when they have a shift on…it's so frustrating.

What's the point of shifting if you're going to try to get them to hit against it?!?!


The shift is based on the batter, not the pitcher. It's what the hitter does when being pitched to normally. Every team in the league uses the same approach.


Yes, it's predicated on the batter being a pull hitter…however, if you pitch to the outside of the plate, they're going to hit it to the opposite field. It's going to be a soft hit, but a hit nonetheless b/c they're poking it to a wide open side of the field.
The type of pitch matters most. With RHP vs RHB and LHP vs LHB almost all breaking ball grounders are pulled regardless of pitch location.


Agreed…Garcia hit a fastball on the outside.

Neris not clutch at all... Still got that Phillies bullpen mentality

Not sure what it is about Neris. He has decent stuff, but I think most batters see him pretty well.

Haven't been able to watch many games this year. Does Neris usually suck this bad?

Hunter Brown probably has a shut down inning instead of whatever this is.

Guys could've also scored after the third inning or whatever it was.

Actually, maybe they literally can't.

3-0 lead and then you don't get a single ****ing hit since the 3rd G&! D*!% inning!

Fire the entire hitting staff!!!!!!

Feel bad for Javier. Neris has got to find a way keep those runners on 1st, or, you know, just pitch better.

Pretty awesome that the bottom of the lineup is up for us in the 9th... At least Pena is a threat at the plate. I assume Diaz will get the pinch hit opportunity for Maldy

At some point the conversation has to turn to Cintron and if he stays around. Nothing this season has shown me he deserves to stay.

IIRC Neris had been nails earlier this year.

Now you look up and he's leading AL in appearances and slowly declining.

I get it's Neris giving up late runs but once again it's the lack of offense that is losing this game. We just can't score unless we hit HRs.

Yeah, maybe I just want to believe Troy Snitker has had his dad in his ear lately.

Our corner outfield have plus arms. That was a nifty throw.
If only there weren't all these holes in the offense.

When it rains it pours. That should have ended the inning.
