when your 789 hitters give you nothing, 2345 needs to be better than this. score 2 runs in the 1st then jack shiet the rest of the game. mid season form astros offense
Too many stranded runners, but hey, the pitching stopped serving 6 runs/game. Get back to W's tomorrow.
Damn. I mean good job winning the series but really let a nice opportunity pass you up by not sweeping. That was disappointing.
Diaz would do better if he just hung his bat out in a bunt position the entire AB and hoped the ball hit it.
Looking at the positives, pitching doing much better lately. Can’t win every game, took the series. Let’s take 2 or 3 from the Cardinals!
allowed rockies to sweep you but couldn't even sweep them back. let's see if this pitching staff really turned the corner with jordan walker coming into town tomorrow (even though they're already in town lol).
I would give Diaz a few days off. He is lost at the plate, can’t even throw to second. Maybe we can designate him to challenge pitches from the dugout!
Would not mind a strong defensive catcher that the pitchers trust instead of Diaz even though it costs offense. Someone like an Ausmus.
Looking back, no runs in 6th and then Carlos not just taking that pitch with bases Loaded hurts. Biggio is ashamed.
Defense was really good, pitching wasn't good again, 7-8-9 didn't do squat and once again RISP killed us...........it "seems" were about a .500 team right now, can we tread water until the cavalry arrives? Is the draft here yet
Hunter Brown and Josh Hader (and Bennett Sousa ftm) will be leading the cavalry, so ... maybe, yes. maybe, no. There is also hope that the newly acquired arms will round into shape as the season goes along: Tatsuya Imai, Mike Burrows, Ryan Weiss, Peter Lambert, Christian Roa, Kai-Wei Teng, Nate Pearson, Tom Cosgrove, and Sam Carlson.
The rockies won 43 games last year they have already matched 10% of that total this season, just against the Astros
