Good win last night, hopefully it carries over tonight. And great, OTL is having a piece about the Astros and the Osuna trade.

Go 'Stros.


That ****ing muckraker Jeff Passan wrote a hit piece that got 1100 retweets. Roughly 4% of your average MLB stadium.
I never pay too much attention to a name which seems close to "pissant". I bet half the retweets were Dodgers fans, and the other half Rangers fans.

13 Astros left on base so far


You sure do demand perfection don't you. For a former umpire and I assume former player I'm a little surprised.
We have a 1 run lead and a 5 game losing streak. So yeah I don't like the LOB stats right now.

If it makes more sense, I'm a former catcher. Never liked walks to the other team, always figured the batter was at fault for 'catcher's interference'. And a really good pitcher didn't wave off more than 2 of my signals in an at-bat.
We just spent a weekend where the Rangers had more LOB than the Astros in all 3 games. LOB isn't always a bad thing. You're driving up pitch counts, forcing pitchers to exert more stressful pitches, etc.
Long as we score ...

Looks like our competitive pride is kicking in

Winning the series against Seattle is huge after that losing streak.

Let's just drive over them. Not sure what we'd pick up from a place like LA

Man, SI won't let this Osuna thing go.

I'm mildly annoyed that Lunhow would trade for a player that would cause this much fuss, kinda puts everyone in a spot

We released Hauschild, then he goes to Toronto and throws 6 shutout innings. Baseball is weird.

12-0 Houston right now, by the way. Since the lead-off homer yesterday, the Dodgers have gone scoreless through 48 outs.

Yeah, I'm beginning to doubt they aren't actually East German bio-weapons left over from the Cold War

Marwin dropped a fat man on SF for the win, and the guy we don't know whether to cheer for or boo threw a scoreless 8th.
