Houston has three distinct and diverse brands

Rodeo Roughneck Cowboy
Space city
Spinners, Grillz, Swishahouse and screw

That's what's great is you will find all 3 brands at the stadium on any given night.

My greatest Astros memory is being in the Budweiser bar for game 5 with a bunch of folks who probably sold their cars to be there and I **** you not there was
1) a white guy in a a full astronaut suit
2) a Hispanics in full Jose Cruz uniform leading the "Jose Jose Jose" chants
3)a black guy with a big H chain and custom airbrushed Houston Mount Rushmore with DJ screw, Hakeem and altuve on the shirt
4) a wrangler wearing cowboy

All throwing beers in the air for every home run high fiving and hugging
Its beautiful

I'm wondering if they're really waiting or it's just willful ignorance

Regardless, it's better for Lee to be up here and get some PT behind Maldy.

Sucks it was against us but I appreciate a good bunt like that.

Pena really struggles with the slider
He has to learn to stop chasing them



Overall - he doesn't walk enough yet whiffs, & Ks too much.

Look at Whiff%. North of 40% on change-ups, curves, and sliders.



But that is okay. He's a rookie. Plenty of rookies have the same issues and develop.

The catcher dilemma is tough, love maldy handling the pitchers but with only Lee behind him I think we should make a move for a better hitting category

Yep. Tighten up the plate discipline a little...should be no problem

Doesn't sound repeatable. Javier still got this.

That quality start streak may end tonight with that pitch count

Lee is already OPS'ing .944 in his young career!

3-0 with Ohtani on the mound and a lineup featuring McCormick at 2 and Matijevic at DH is looking unlikely.

Why not give him 1B, face Ward instead w/2 outs. Great job Dusty.
AKA 13-0

Up 1-2 on Villar who's batting .211 with 2 HR on the year and walking him led to that crap inning

Those 2 runs are on Dusty. No Trout behind Ohtani, you walk him w/2 outs, face Ward every single time.
AKA 13-0

Came here to post the same thing. Infuriating. The Angels are a one man show right now. Don't let him beat you. He hasn't lost this season with a three run lead. Statistically you likely just cost yourself the game by pitching to him.

WTF was that? Did he say he swung?

It was terrible. I think he said it was in there.

That may be one of the worst strike calls of the year.

Ohtani just hit 100.6

WOW

And that is just another way out of the zone pitch called a strike in Jake Meyers. The umps seem to have thing for making bad calls against Jake.

I don't mind him throwing 100+, as our best chance to win this game is to get this guy tired early in the game.

He's through 3 innings but 50 pitches deep. Hopefully we are teeing off on their pen by the 5th or 6th

We need Bregman and TED to jump on him. Those are our best match ups. I wouldn't sleep on JJ either.

I've seen better looking hats on scarecrows and mules.

This looks like a loss tonight. I'll probably cash in and check on it tomorrow. If by chance we won, I'll watch the recording.

Javier at 77 pitches to get through 3

This is going to be a heavy bull pen game.
