Todays’s rum forecast: Dark ‘n Stormy.
Arrighetti issues a 2-out walk
Middle of one…no score
I don’t know why I’m surprised but I was nearly shocked to hear that this is Arrighetti’s 19th start.
Altuve draws a leadoff walk
Never would have guessed that
Bregman walks
Two on for Alvarez…
Yordan flies out F7
Diaz grounds into 6-4-3 double play. Line drive caught on the shorthop.
Astros do not move the two leadoff walks. No score.
Yordan had two very smashable pitches there he missed.
The pitch he flew out on screamed to be crushed. Yainer hit it hard, but right at em.
Another 2-out walk
Arrighetti strikes out the side. No score.
Peña strikes out swinging
Singleton strikes out looking
Meyers grounds out 6-3
No score after two
Dana Brown visits the booth, and he’s saying all the usual things about getting a trade done, but the tone of voice and demeanor seems bummed/pessimistic.
There are WAY too many Dodger fans here.
There are too many Dodger fans on the earth.
I took it more that the teams he’s trying to do a deal with are probably going to wait until the final hours to agree to anything.
I did find it interesting that he seems also to be looking for a back of the bullpen guy. ‘We rode the back of our bullpen really hard at the beginning of the season’ I took as GM speak for ‘These dudes are wildly inconsistent and I’m not sure I can trust them.’
