How long do you want to ignore this user?
One hit by a non-Dubon or Yordan player. Amazing.
This offense will stay fighting for a wild card at best.

Milwaukee series repeat
When a 3rd if your lineup sucks you are going to have issues.

Thanks dusty for giving alex and pena both a night off
Follow the leader and Dusty is absolutely lost.
I'll take "No Sense of Urgency" for $1000 please, Alex.
On radio last night I believe Ford and Sparky said 3 players were specifically called out and told to change their motion this season or it would be a balk: Luis Garcia, Romano, and another Blue Jays pitcher. Romano was the only one that apparently didn't change his motion…Mathguy64 said:
How is that not a ducking balk? Can someone in the dugout get thrown out *****ing about that?
the lineup is such a mess
Dubon has 5 hits in the past 2 games including a homer and a double
but he is probably headed back to the bench tomorrow

So why didn't Altuve bunt?
It's hard to put in words how bad of a manager Dusty ismwm said:

Altuve, Dubon, Bregman, Yordan, Peña, Tucker, Daz, Chaz, Meyers.
It's that easy. This division is no where near a gimme this year.

Astros only drew 1 walk last night and 0 tonight. Not very competitive at-bats.
Is that the batting order? Gotta leave pena at 2 if so
speaking of Abreu and plate appearances...
he's up to 249 for the season
unbelievable

I wanted to see them intentionally walk Tucker to get to our mighty 5 hole hitter, Abreu. We all know Dusty would have sent him out there, foregoing pinch hitting Bregman (or Pena… or Myers.. or ANYONE ELSE), and it would've given us something to shout about for the next 15 hours.

I could have retired by now if the sports book hadn't pulled the Abreu to homer line
Obviously Abreu is orders of magnitude worse but who does Tucker strike fear in right now?

That or something similar. Peña at 2, Tucker 5, Dubon 6. I think 7-9 could move around a little but Julks is playing too much as is Bad Jose.

I was typing out my confusion why they'd even challenge Tuck in that spot only needing one out with the Black Hole(TM) coming up when Tuck struck out. That was a dumb move by the Jays that happened to work out for them.
So we need at minimum 2 big bats and probably a SP to make a serious run at another title. That's what I'm coming up with right now. That will not be cheap and is probably impossible.
Dubon at 9 specifically to set up the top of the order. Put the worst hitter at 8.maca1028 said:Ags #1 said:

Some fun news: for the second straight night, the Dodgers led by at least four and ended up getting walked off by the Reds.
That Elly kid is legit.

Just in time to come to MMP
So I missed the game tonight. I'm guessing it wasn't the best time to have both Bregman and Pena sit out? Or would it not have made much of a difference?
Bregman is a more patient hitter and has seen Bassitt enough that I think he would have made a difference. I didn't watch the whole game though.

Trying to win games is fan stuff. This team will probably be 6+ games back at the All Star break
he would have played for a rookie so probably so
Rangers lose. Everybody drink to the moral victory. If you're not already drunk.
You know who we don't hear from or about much anymore, Jeff Bagwell.
