    Nothing like a strikeout looking on 4 balls

    i want skynet taking over the strike zone. it was cool hearing an old schooler in larry dierker saying he would prefer it.

    What if the Gomez/Fiers trades turns out to be one of the Astros best trades. Gomez is a star player and will turn it around. I had no idea Fiers was this good though...

    That was a terrible slide by Gattis. I think he's safe but eesh he needs some work on the paths.

    Gattis is the worst slider I've ever seen.

    Gattis better watch that pop-up after the slide.

    Another bullishh call though, he was safe and tag was on when he popped-up


    We had runners on 2nd and 3rd... inning over on a bad call

    can you call the first slide conclusively safe, but the pop up off the base inconclusive?

    I didn't see him tag him on the pop up though. Curious as to why he was out. Perhaps not enough to overturn it I guess

    Why didn't Rasmus go to third on the single? Really annoying
