Without Blanco we’d be the worst team in baseball
Was coming here to say this. We literally wouldn’t have a rotation right now. It’d be 4 guys and well, shit, who wants to pitch today?
Imagine where the Astros would be if they don’t continually lose one run games.
Manute Bol in to pitch
Top of 7th.
Hjelle (6’11") pitching
Dubon F8
Caratini 6-3
Altuve 1-3
At the stretch, Astros 3, Giants 1.
You are not going to bounce many balls over top of that guy.
I was thinking Sarunas Marciolonis.
Rik Smits
Amen and absolution. All knees and elbows. It was a good idea not to fuck with him in the paint.
Bottom 7th.
Scott pitching.
Conforto F6.
Flores K (foul tip)
Soler walks
Yaztrzemski F7
End of 7, Astros 3 Giants 1.
I’m afraid of seeing Pressly in the 8th.
Good news! You won’t see him until the ninth!
Top 8th
Hjelle pitching
Bregman F9
Alvarez F5
Pena K (foul tip)
Mid 8, Astros 3 Giants 1.
Please have mercy.
I wonder if Jesus wants me to get a cross tattooed on my neck?
Nice play, Jon!
Bottom 8th.
Abreu in to pitch.
Estrada K swinging
Wisely F3, nice backhand grab by Singleton of line drive down the line.
Ramos F9
End of 8, Astros 3 Giants 1.
Buckle up
Here comes the hard part.
TK, stop. Nobody thinks Abreu will be the guy they thought they were signing. The only question is whether he can be acceptable, or whether he has to be released.
