Astros at Marlins, 8/14/23

What a crappy ending to his start.

Way to put it out of reach for your impotent offense.

What a frustrating game.

Framber allowed 11 HR last year.

He’s already allowed 15.

Probably didn’t matter if it was 2-1 or 12-1, but hate to see Framber’s night end this way.

Another pitch right down the middle.

Meanwhile, Rangers leading 2-0 and batting with the bases loaded no out in the 3rd vs Angels.

Expecting any help from the Angels in the next three games is wishful thinking. The Astros have to win their games.

The Rangers are better than the Astros. They’re not gonna come back. The Astros have to go on an historic run.

The Astros just have to keep pace and sweep in Arlington.

Keeping pace will be the challenge.

I think the Rangers and Astros are the two best teams in the American League. So, no, I don’t expect the Rangers to give up much ground.

The Astros are not as good as the Rays or the Orioles either. They just aren’t.

Altuve draws a 2-out walk. Staying alive…

Perfect ending.

And that’ll do it.

5-1 Marlins is your final.

I disagree strongly about the Rays. That isn’t the same team from April. Not even close, and especially not without Wander Franco or Shane McClanahan.

The Orioles can hit and have a great bullpen. I have questions about their starting pitching. But, they are definitely in the conversation.

Astros need to go on a run. They have winnable games ahead, but the offense cannot go into one of those two week funks where they score 9 runs in 12 games.
