Astros @ Padres, August 23, 2020

I can’t help but keep thinking about how Dusty threw the Padres a bone and mailed in the first game of this series. That it will end up a turning point in this season.

To the 9th…Astros now chasing two runs

Man, you are stuck on this. No, he did not. No, it won’t. The Padres are healthier and better than the Astros.

Maybe I am. But I still think Friday was a very winnable game.

Get something started, Kyle!

The bus?

Good one.

Very little doubt during this series.
Three hits - no other runners - after Tucker’s HR in the 1st.

Frankly, not using Yuli with the game on the line and just giving him instructions to take it easy if he hits a grounder and not push his tender legs is pretty egregious.

Maybe he strikes out too, but leaving bullets in the gun in a 60 game season makes no sense.

ETA: Especially with how beat up the team is in general.

If the team is taking this dumbass season seriously, not using Yuli makes zero sense.

This right here.

Right now they are incapable of missing mistakes.

Not using Yuli in the first game at least kept him from being hurt on Friday.

Reminded me of a narcoleptic goat.
