  1. Like I said... There was no guarantee that Rucinski or Wheeler don't get lit up either. The big question to me is still all about trust. What is the point of calling them up if you don't want to use them. Why is Vargas down in AAA exactly?
  2. We are going to have to call up two more relievers because the pen is even more tired.
  3. BTW Didn't all this happen after STRING left the park. String may be responsible
  4. A. No guarentee that Rucinski or Wheeler don't get lit up. B. Rucinski was up warming but he was sat back down after the Astros got close so that is Paul saying I don't trust him. C. If you don't trust him to throw... You sent Vargas down for no reason at all. D. If you sent Vargas down for no reason at all... The Front Office and the Manager are not on the same page. E. I got nothing for E but I like doing things in Fives.
  5. Yeah he kicked the can down the road. What happens if we need bullpen tomorrow. This one can be pinned on Molitor.
  6. If there are people on the roster that Molitor doesn't trust. They shouldn't be on the roster.
  7. Momentum The Astros had a big dose of it.
  8. Hinch will probably file a complaint with the league office and I don't blame him.
  9. It was but he made it unnecessarily outstanding... That should have been a routine double play. He left his feet too soon. Had to curl up to avoid diving past the ball. If he keeps his feet moving it would have been routine. I've watched it about 5 times now. I think I'm right.
  10. Nice play by Polanco but it really didn't look like he needed to dive. I think he could have ranged over and picked up the ball cleanly and completed an easy double play. His dive was kind of in the fetal position.
  11. That sounds like a challenge. Cuz... I think we have some TD'ers who can do it.
  12. To follow the Domino... "To Rock and Roll All Nite" Thanks you Fats
  13. I would have given one of the new guys a shot with a 6 run lead. A chance to rest the entire pen. Molitor probably talked with everyone in the pen and asked them how they felt. Pressly probably sounded ready and willing in his response.
  14. It doesn't make you wrong... it doesn't make you right. But even if you are wrong... you are right... because you have always understood that there is more than what meets the eye and you have seen cats skinned in many different ways.
  15. I hate to say it but I just did it. I hung on to him all year but I just dropped Byron Buxton from my fantasy team. Logan Morrison was available... I have Belt but he is OF Eligible so he can replace Buxton in the OF... So I did it. I kept waiting for Buxton to rise and Morrison to regress. Morrison looked locked in this weekend. I pushed the button... it's a done deal... no looking back now.
  16. Under normal circumstances... he wouldn't have pitched it. The Bullpen is really taxed. One more inning may not seem like much but it really helps when everybody in the pen has thrown a lot of pitches in the last 3 days. Personally... I would have told him good job and brought in one of the new guys.
  17. Santana will start the 7th. He may not finish it... Pressly and Breslow are the only guys that I'd consider using besides the new duo.
  18. Are you OK String? Did you brave it or run or walk quickly to the concourse.
