And I still don't understand why JV went off speed in game 1
Yup. In Game 5 he needs to throw heat until his arm falls off

Enough with the what if scenarios. We need to focus on winning the game in front of us. Jesus
Blame Dusty and LMJ all you want if it makes you feel better, but if we don't score any runs, none of it matters.

I don't think anybody likes it. We'd much rather enjoy talking about what a big wheelbarrow he needs to get from the mound to the dugout.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.
You absolutely use Stanek here. Bring in Urquidy/Brown/Garcia at the start of a clean inning.
And you aren't burning Stanek buy using him for 6-8 pitches tonight. He has pitched like 1.2 innings in the last month. He's had plenty of rest

Just get some runs this inning.

Gig’em Aggies!
Weird, Lance gets pulled and all of a sudden Realmuto and Harper get worked by Stanek when they can't see any tipping….
Didn't someone call for Stanek in the 3rd?

It's still not necessary
These are the same guys that dunk on our college athletes too. Really disgusting. Won't hear from these experts again until next October.Farmer1906 said:

How do you write about the Astros if you bail out halfway through the games you actually watch?Dan Shedd said:Same.Cromagnum said:
Aight I'm out. **** this.
after this start you cant pitch Lance again. At all. This was domination.jkag89 said:If he can't correct how he is tipping his pitches, no I don't start him.Boiling Denim said:
Here's the real question:
If by some miracle we take this series back to Houston and it's Game 7 does Dusty throw LMJ knowing he's definitely tipping pitches?
Dodgers threw Darvish again knowing he had a tell
It is definitely a MUST win. Lose that one and it's the Braves series all over again.maca1028 said:tjack16 said:
Win game 4 tomorrow.
MUST WIN

LOL. It's being a bleeder to go do something else after one of our starters **** the bed after coughing up 7 (all homeruns mind you) before we change our strategy.

Yes. Especially high fast balls. JV was mowing them down with fast balls the first time through the lineup in game 1. For some reason he quit throwing them the 2nd time through and got lit up. The Phillies are smashing breaking balls.
Jesus Christ some of y'all are so soft. Are y'all going to be attending the Phillies championship parade tomorrow?
Bag said:
Just get it back to Houston and I like our chances
Big if, if for no other reason than the Phillies are beyond all standard deviations of home field advantage and no one cares because it's against the Astros.
Their terrible pitching depth could not be less relevant after the rain delay and getting to chill tonight thanks to this vintage 2021 World Series egg laying.
For Fsss sake... Dusty gonna Dusty. Managing like he is still in the regular season.
Alright boys, time to get some runners on base, put pressure on their shaky defense and make them sweat. Anything can happen.
The best bullpen in baseball, and you leave the starter in way too long, when everyone with an ounce of baseball sense can see what is going on. Thanks, Dusty. Go choke on your ****ing toothpick.
Yeah, well, sometimes nothing is a real cool hand
Seriously, how did they only win 87?
We have been unable to put them away when we get up in counts. It plagued JV and McCullers. McCullers is also tipping pitches which sucks. I thought he got it turned around when he had a couple of solid innings after getting down 4-0.

I get their frustration. I'm frustrated which anyone who follows Fightin' Texas Aggie Baseball game threads know I take it out on those who bleed all over the thread.The Porkchop Express said:Seriously, it's one game. Whether we lose 17-0 or 2-1, the only thing yo can do is come back out tomorrow. We need a baby pool area for this thread in the playoffs.jkag89 said:Good the bleeders are leaving.

LFG

you call reposting tweets "writing"?

Pitching Stanek here is ****ing ******ed. Put urquidy in and let him finish the game. Save your BP arms.
There's a reason why dusty hasn't won a WS even with the teams he's managed…
I'm sorry but even being down 7 you don't concede the game at this point
Urquidy isn't conceding the game. He was a solid starter all year. Put him in and let him eat innings.
Stanek was nails all season, lowest ERA for a reliever, etc. and dusty had refused to use him this post season. Now we bring him in? Doesn't make a ton of sense.
Needed some day games worked into this schedule

In the WS, every game is a must win. If you don't play that way, you'll lose.
Not a fan of taking out Lance there after a 7-0 score

Don't you dare question one the board's baseball savants.
Last years ALCS, feels the same
Oh I'll definitely write about it. Just can't stand watching the Astros get their heads bashed in atm
