Once again Tayler Scott vultures a win, inheriting Framber's potential loss and getting 1 (important) out. Carry on!

Blows my mind that someone is giving out this seemingly inside information on a random message board. Seems if management is in fact not high in a particular player they probably don't want that broadcast everywhere in case of trade opportunities.

I wasn't paying attention but that seemed crazy fast on the pitch clock.

Love the way Hader just said give me the ball and I'll just finish this … and then proceeded to do so.

Another well played win

This team is gelling

I believe when the timer "goes off" the umpire still has discretion over making a call, and there seem to be differing opinions on "readiness" of the batter at 8 seconds.

I think what made it seem so fast was the ump called the violation with like 4 seconds on the clock. Hader stepped off to ask for a ball and the ump just said nope that's a violation.

pitch clock was fine, what wasn't, is hader trying to get a new baseball, and ignored, and Diaz trying to call time and ignored all with 6 seconds still on the clock!

I'd like to see Scottie's post game interview.

I kind of feel like comparing the Astros to the Nats is insulting.

They were a one-hit wonder that got hot for the right 3 months


We've been on top for 7.5 damn years

Padres over Guardians, 7-0, earlier today means we are 7.5 behind for the 2 seed.

Last six games of our season, 3 at home vs Seattle, 3 on the road at Cleveland.

September is gonna be a ride again.

Astros have narrowed the season series deficit vs. the Mariners from 5-2 to 5-4

Seattle should be in desperation mode tomorrow

On pace for 86 wins as things stand now. But if we continue to play at our pace from May 9th on then we're looking at 93 wins. 104 if we play at our June 19th on pace.

2022 helped, but 2019 still ****ing stings. We were absolutely LOADED that year, just couldn't win a damn home game...

Very curious that they aren't pitching Gilbert in this series. About the only saving grace is that Munoz is fresh vs our pen, but that's cold comfort if you don't have a lead.

And Woo is very good but has had injury issues all year (source: on my fantasy team) and just came back again. He probably can't give much length and they've got to hope he gets a lot of soft contact. Otherwise against Blanco I'd be worried too.

Whether he's good or not, their pen may have to get 12-15 outs tomorrow.

Anyone who had Tayler Scott 7-3 with a 1.35 ERA, stop it, you're lying.

You're right. I had him 9-1 with a 0.85 ERA.

I hope the Mariners realize that acting like JRod's HR in the 6th was a game winner was a huge mistake.

Blows my mind that someone is giving out this seemingly inside information on a random message board. Seems if management is in fact not high in a particular player they probably don't want that broadcast everywhere in case of trade opportunities.


Also if we're too negative here it will hurt recruiting.

Some intern for the Rays analytics department is scouring college message boards for just this kind of info!
