Right now Framber ain't our 1/2.hes probably more like 3/4

He's too inconsistent and I don't trust him much less trust him in a playoff start.

This is what is driving me crazy in this series…it's making a huge difference and it's the 1st pitch of every AB.

Here are the ABs for Jake Meyers and Vientos side-by-side from the top/bottom of the 5th respectively.

The occurrence of what you're seeing here has been constant and makes a MASSIVE difference on the aggregate.

Do not disagree, which is why I bolded a very specific caveat. But that is not the sales pitch to other teams.

Ok, let's eat the pen. Good job by the Astros offense to make a starter work for a change. 100+ pitches for 16 outs is a welcomed effort.

Big Jon jumped and almost stopped that grounder with his face.

Stretch Armstrong... which may have been a couple of years after your time. It was at the tail end of mine.

How is that not a pitch clock violation. The catcher is supposed to be set and ready to receive the pitch with like 10 seconds on the clock. Alvarez squatted with like 4 and the pitch was delivered at 0.

I remember stretch. Sort of looked like He Man WAY before there was a He Man.

That's the last pitch you'll see Yordan.

Diaz can get down the line.

I think we have a big swing coming in this game.

Our 1-4 hitters are 2 for 14 this game with Yordan having the 2 hits. They each probably have 1 more AB left, hopefully they make it count.

Cintron is going to ride this swing-first mentality to the very end.

I liked the Aggies approach of watching until two strikes because it gave me something different to ***** about.

Is it just me or is Alvarez just not a good catcher?

That pitch was never in the strike zone. Terrible effort.

And the choice to PH for Salazar is a guy who is 0-21. That's not really an upgrade.
