Benches have cleared between these two teams in the past recently. Won't be surprised if they do again tomorrow.


Astros need to get Correa's mistress to come out on the field and start jabbing his ribs

Astros need to throw the first pitch of the game behind the head of whoever is leading off just to send a message.

What exactly should he learn? Even a AAAA guy should be able to get 3 outs with an eight run lead...


What we should learn is that it would have better to spend $95M on a few more quality bullpen guys than a single overrated one


We have had the best bullpen in baseball for two months and Hader has been amazing for most of that stretch.

We are the hottest team in baseball and firing on all cylinders and some of you just can't be pleased. It's like you are addicted to being miserable.

After a bullpen game, this doesn't sound like the smartest plan I've ever heard.

Hader has been amazing?

Yeah, with a multi run lead he manages to get the save while giving up a run or two (or 4)

Pretty good. How you?

He inherited three runners and Corea smacked a ball 5 inches our of the zone.

Yes, Hader has been amazing.

Anybody see the end of the Pads-DBacks game? Padres blew a 5 run lead and then walk it off with a Machado homer. Post walkoff:

We have literally four starters and had an eight-run lead in the first game of the series in which our lead bullpen game guy couldn't get out of the third. We understand guys' arms need to keep functioning for three more months right?

I don't fault anyone for expecting Contreras to get one out before giving up six runs. That's on him. I'm glad to be four games over.

Dude. Relax. He did not expect to pitch, had to warm up quickly, and Correa hit a ball well off the plate. **** happens. They won. And they won a bullpen game for crying out loud.

Some of you just enjoy being miserable and I'll never understand it.

I know some people were dunking all over Dana Brown at the start of this season for continuing to insist that we were a good team and were going to rattle off a run of 10 straight (I was one of them)

We didn't quite rattle off 10-straight but the run we've been on meets the spirit if not the letter of his statement.

I think we're a WS caliber team if we can get 2/3 of Garcia, Verlander/McCullers healthy for the rest of the year, and maybe some help at 1B

Kind of best case scenario. Soto is having an MVP season yet the Ya Kees don't win anything. They're forced to hand out 500 M and continue not having a good enough roster and no money to fix it.

Mrs. Marvin was so mad last night after CC's homer that she let a "dang it" slip out. I lol'd, which did not help. Haha. That was an entertaining game, and another win.

I'm still pissed we let the abreu situation drag along as long as we did. I understand why they felt the need to try and force it, but every single data point indicated he was toast yet we still trotted him out there every damn day.

Here's a little nugget for you guys: we've "checked in on and discussed" Jack Flaherty in recent days

That would be awesome. I wanted him last year at the deadline as well as in the off-season this year.

All it took was shedding the dead weight of Abreu, an MVP candidate, and three starting pitchers.

I still think it's the Phillies year but I'm hoping we can make a run in the AL side of the bracket

win pace up to 85.

I have never had any alcohol in my life but if this is how Espada is going to run the bullpen and we make the playoffs, I might have to start.

33% Star Wars
33% Astros
33% Making myself laugh

Yeah I truly have no idea why people are so upset. Mind blowing really.

Those bullpen games are difficult to win. And they won and continue to be red hot. Why can't we ever be happy?
