    THREE bleeping multi-run HRs

    All high leverage guys will be used or we lose... maybe both

    Honestly it’s not surprising, we’ve seen this happen before this season.

    Abreu just throws too much off speed stuff to left handed hitters. I don't really get it. Sort of how Pressly did earlier in the year. They have to get him back on the devastating fastball that he doesn't use often.

    We are so good at turning opposing teams seasons around. We do the most unbelievable bullshit.

    Making up for that Framber decision and way to pull out Stanek, Dusty!
    But don’t you think when you send your starter out there at about 90+ pitch count that you should have someone warming up? Just in case ‍♂️

    Again with 2 outs

    Stanek manages to strike out Ohtani on a splitter…then walk, single, single, homer

    Or if he’s throwing off-speed stuff… how about you don’t throw belt-high middle-middle hangers?

    Abreu has also never pitched a full season of high leverage relief.

    Do we not have ANYONE in the bullpen that can spin a ****ing ball?

    The Angels can't hit spinners but crush FBs and all we bring in is gas......

    **** - 9-3 lead....gone......this team is just not good enough pitching wise.

    NO ASTROS LEAD IS SAFE with this bullpen.

    Blows a 6 run lead, can't blame the offense. Stanek joining the the club with Montero.
