[Official] Padres @ Astros

And the award for the most pathetic starting pitchers goes too.... Brown and Javier

 

I’m 1000% certain he keeps trotting out Javier and Hunter thinking they will work out their problems (with Maldys help). His gut feeling is ignoring their arms are tired and he’s running them into the ground, especially trying to squeeze very single out of them he can every start. He’s destroyed pitchers careers squeezing everything he can out of them on his past teams.

 

Those two things aren’t mutually exclusive. His command is awful and his stuff/velocity isn’t there.

 

Yeah some hanging our heads time tonight between my Coogs and Stros.

 

Tucker has been straight ass for awhile now.

 

Astros need to show something at get some runs here

 

Spencer Arrighetti Dominating and Not getting a September Callup is Terrible. Astros Javier, Brown, France needs Rest and Need Help in Starting.

 

Yeah man...just awful. It sucks.

 

Squeeze those innings Dusty...keep trying, you'll get it one of these times.

Callup Blanco or anyone else doing well, give those guys a chance at least.

 

Who do you suggest they pitch? Try complaining less and actually offer solutions…

 

He never threw hard though. He just isn't praising the Lord.

 

Maldy handles pitchers, people. Scoring is overrated. Abreu is a veteran who’s never won a damn thing. He’s due!

 

People have a right to complain about this team.

 

My point is any team that can stack a lineup with LHBs like Baltimore he’s essentially useless and we would be crazy to send him out there.

He’s still getting RHBs out holding them to under .190 BAA coming into today.

 

He is clearly out of shape. His face has gotten chubbier and you can see him breathing heavy in the 2nd inning. Dusty will trash Chas for gaining a few pounds which has helped his hitting but Javier is his guy so he won’t say ****.

 

Management continues to ignore months of evidence and keeps playing them like nothing happened.

Diaz and Chas are also ignored.

This is outright sabotage.

 

Did he see his reflection in the banana pudding?

 

Average velocity more than a mph down on the fastball… and his command even worse. If spin is down and command bad, he’s a shell of himself.

 

Either Abreu is that slow... or he didn't think his team mate would actually get a hit
