Blue gave that but not the other one that might have mattered.
Finally
Not the box score we wanted but the box we got.
AOFA and F dusty
YPOFA.
Ballgame. We stay in front with everyone winning.

I currently can't find myself being worried about Pressly, or this particular outing. Not sure if I should care more or not, as it pertains to future close games.Farmer1906 said:
Pressly usually throws really well to Yainer.

After the past couple of evenings, any win is a good win.

I'd call trying to close out a no-no to be leveraged scenario.
Anyway, it is great to have gotten a win.
Winner. Winner.

My takeaways tonight. We answered after being down (losing streak, not literally trailing) like we always do. Hunter Brown had a hell of a start. Yainer Diaz is that dude behind the plate.

Enjoy it rook, now ride the pine in KC and let a real catcher show you how it's done! It's the donkey way!
&ct=g Gig’em Aggies!
1-0.

Pressly is not a great closer, I would put him at slightly less than average. There are some people who have a problem with that but I'm not sure why
Because he's been a very good closer. People tend to remember the bad more than the good. He's been very solid. Less than average is a wild statement honestly.
I'll give you that this year hasn't been his best by any means. But for the vast majority of his Astros tenure, he's been fantastic.

It's obvious Pressley got instructions from Dusty to blow the no-no so Diaz couldn't have that on his resume, the brilliant tactician lives another day

Pressly is a good closer, but in non-save situations something is different.
I am NOT happy with him right now. 38 years and I've still never seen a no hitter in person.
That said, the Astros Hawaiian shirt worked for the win.

Because he's only given up like 3 ERs in his last 30 playoff innings or something ridiculous
Man Toronto really crapped the bed this week.

He has been great in the past, I'm speaking of this year.

Listen
You know what needs to happen
This hawaiian shirt
You cannot take it off until after we win the WS

Excellent during his time here. Mediocre this year.
I think some of you short-memoried emoters forget that he's given up only 1 earned run in in his last 22 postseason appearances dating back to the 2020 ALDS. That's not just excellent - that's legendary.

I love Pressly. He and Bryan Abreu are the two guys I always have faith in to get the job done
Holy **** Greinke is 1-15!?!
Im looking for Ray Finkle.... and a clean pair of shorts. Im just a very big Finkle fan. This is my Graceland, sir.

I was shocked when I saw that, too, and the Sunday starter (also former Astro) Jordan Lyles is 4-16. KC does not come back if the starter gives up a few early it seemsMr.Bond said:
