Spotting Snell a three-run lead is a bold strategy.
I know what's worse. A 4 run lead.

So can we put to rest the ridiculous idea that Maldonado makes any kind of difference with his preparation?

I'm fairness I can't really remember the last time he did have it
I hate getting against the stros but I did not see how the Padres were a +137 this game
H.B.'s season ERA up to 4.77
could get left off the playoff roster in a short series

Radio guys said Brown hasn't made it past 3 or 4 innings in his last few starts.EastCoastAgNc said:dshedd41 said:

Stop trying bud light, you're done.
HB might be lucky we have a couple injuries in the rotation. I don't see how he fits in this team with a healthy LMJ or Garcia
His stuff is soft

Easy money.
We just absolutely suck at home
That's why the ish-talking after the Rangers series felt so premature. We still have 11 home games left including 3 against the Orioles. Feels like we need to go at least 6-5 in those 11

His stuff is fantastic. His control just isn't there. He will be great for us
Hunter needs to train more with JV and less with Maldy
This completely disproves any notion that Maldy is a big impact for our pitching staff during an actual game

Freezing cold takes
Just checked the score. Doesn't seem like Maldy has straightened HB out... Maybe our manager should shut his pie hole.
I think HB will be alright with a new pitching staff next season…absolutely no reason to retain the current group that is clearly not stressing attacking hitters and has almost every starter lucky to pitch into the 6th.
Chubby Chaz, Maldy the pitcher whisperer, bad batters eye. Is this make believe??
Every national broadcaster raves about Maldy's defense and how he manages the pitchers.
If only any of that were true.

Time to bust out the serious gifs. Need some magic.

It does feel like a surrealist version of a pennant race.
Except Snell mowing through this lineup, that seems real.
Tuve has been in straight swing mode since those HRs.
For a second there I thought JV was having a heart attack but it was just the color saturation
Snell has it working now
this was a bad matchup tonight from the git-go

Listening to Dontrelle Willis simp for Dusty and Maldonado while the team farts on yet another home game when it counts is one vision of hell.
Gonna have to get his pitch count up. He's dealing.
Well other teams don't seem to be effected by the batters eye at Minute Maid
Snell off speed stuff is super impressive live.
And Maldy didn't do crap for Brown when he started struggling at the bottom of the order in the 2nd.

Move it up, down, in & out. We'll swing at just about anything.
I wish our crowd had a bit more edge…these guys are getting ready to go below .500 at home and deserve to just get punished by the home fans.
One of the only good things to come out of Covid were the explosion of straight to streaking tv and movies
Our last win at home was August 22nd and we are on a 5 game home losing streak.

He walks like four guys minimum per game and generally I see him in the 80s in pitch count by the fifth latest. The Astros are refusing to let his pitch count get up, it's not like he's pumping what would be strikes.
