    If the Astros cut every pitcher that the bbs told them to, their whole pitching staff would consist of JV, Cole and Pressly.

    Glad Hinch brought Devo in to stop the bleeding.

    Please wait to exit the 'Wade Miley is our 3rd Playoff Starter' cabin until the bandwagon has come to a full and complete stop.

    Thank you for riding Astros Air.

    Co-players of the game: George Springer and Yordan's orange seat. There'd be nothing for our announcers to talk about without the latter.

    Need to hope Yankees lose tonight so we can reset and call it a day.

    Worried about Miley, he is too good to be this bad.

    We won’t get close to home field if Miley tanks.

    Sneed and biagini aren’t making the playoffs, they are just here for mop up.
    Not concerned about what they do.

    Yep...kind of like how many times Nolan broke his strikeout record. :)

    I watched every inning of that Cubs game on WGN.

    CUBS GRAND, SLAM ASTROS 22-7

    https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-1987-06-04-8702110341-story.html

    "Anytime you give up runs every inning, it looks like you're not even trying,'' [manager] Hal Lanier fumed after a postgame clubhouse meeting. ''There's no excuse for that. You come out to the ballpark every day for one reason, and that's to beat the other team. That's why I'm out here and that's why the players should be out here. And those who don't will not be here, as far as I'm concerned.''

    What a dumpster fire. Of course the yanks will figure out a way to beat the tigers tonight and take the home field lead again.

    I am concerned about a 4th starter in the lcs or ws assuming we get there. Miley has managed what. 1 out with his last 13 or so runs?

    I'm wondering if he's hurt. The kind of hurt that jacks up his pitching mechanics, and is causing him to throw BP.

    I don't understand why Hinch has taken out all of our best players...it's almost like he is conceding the game

    Wouldn't you be the same one criticizing him if somebody got hurt trying to over-exert themselves in this blowout of a game?
