I think his brain was wired to swing no matter where the pitch was.
Get that **** out of the way, hader. Better not see that in the playoffs
Won the series and the offense finally looked good. Got a little mad. I'm 200% more worried about Yordan than blowing this game. We're up 5.5 with 7 to go. We could lose the rest and we still likely win the division.
Hader is now 8-8. I've never seen a closer with that many decisions.
critical game for the Twins (81-74) tonight
must win or the Tigers (82-74) pass them

I said the same before the series if you would have given me a 3-1 series win and they don't get to play each other I'd happily take it. It's still baseball. Unless you're the White Sox but they still are 3-7 over their last 10 so you never know.jkag89 said:
welp, at least they did not go down quietly.
Would have gladly taken 3-1 series win at the start of the weekend but basically just gave this one way this afternoon.
We still were going to need to beat Seattle once regardless. Hopefully we do it tomorrow and take the pressure off and let guys rest.
I'm hoping for a 4 way tie for 3 WC spots. Let those teams burn their pitchers and travel like crazy before the playoffs start.
Rangers saved our ass today

No 1 game playoffs.
the Royals finish their season at Atlanta
but the Braves could be eliminated from the wildcard beforehand

It's all decided by tie breakers. Change happened when they went to the expanded playoff
We've used him a lot in non-save situations. Only three of those decisions come via a blown save and two of those were Ws.Mathguy64 said:

In the past, Hader had the stuff to not have to be concerned with locating in the zone. Now, he has to locate and can't consistently do it. Same with Abreu. Combination of a downtick in velo and 97-98 not being anything special, like it was a couple of years ago.
Espada said Alvarez banged his knee on the ground on the slide. He’s undergoing some imaging and they’ll know more later.

Espada said Tucker told him he’s good to play for the rest of the season without any issues.

When I read the start of that I was hoping for, "but he feels ok and just a bruise". Waiting on imaging is concerning
103, 166, 76, 47, 59, 67.
That's Jake's monthly OPS split.
103, 166, 81, 52, 64, 69.
That's his monthly wRC+ splits.
His second half OPS is .552.
I know we debate his defense but there can't be any debate about his offense. One of the priorities for next season is to find a CFer who can hit. Since he got past that massive month of May he's been the worst CF in the majors. His OPS since June 1 is .579. The next closest is .640. His wRC+ is 66. The next closest is 82. His BA is .195.

Anyway we can get there! 2cone said:

Spencer Arrighetti said he started cramping in his calf during the sixth inning and alerted the coaching staff. Joe Espada made the call to shut him down then. https://t.co/DDvis503i2

Dana misread the tea leaves on Jake
when his OPS reached .900 in late May
get the Phillies or whoever else on the phone

Yeah, really did us a solid winning one game out of the last 6 or 7 from the M's. Appreciate it dudes.
They spelled amputation wrong.EastCoastAgNc said:Espada said Alvarez banged his knee on the ground on the slide. He’s undergoing some imaging and they’ll know more later.

Kinda ironic that Alvarez loafed on the first hit of the game...then made up for it by stretching that single to a double and gets hurt. I wish he would have stuck to first. It's not like Doobie scored that inning, we only scratched the one run.

Hope they continue this until they turn it around
No matter what!
Epstein didn't do, you know, the thing...
I'm the rare Astros/Cowboys/Spurs fan. We do exist

Someone at the White Sox is either getting fired or promoted. Not quite sure which.
The Last Mission.

Tomorrow we will will have an opportunity to clinch the AL West while wearing our Space City uniform for the final time. We will retire these uniforms and launch a new City Connect in the 2025 season.https://t.co/A7t8QGgsQ8 pic.twitter.com/m47eAOq1ND

Wild finish incoming.
Out of those three I'd probably rather play the twins
Me too so I can catch a game live

All the WC games would be at Minute Maid. They play them all at the home of the higher seed.

You mean in person? All 3 would be in Houston.
