    If I was the scorer, the run would be unearned. If Marwin did not ***** up, Reddick would have made the third out, not the second.

    If Marwin hadn’t gone full stupid on that play DK would’ve gotten out of the 8th with a shutout intact.

    Jesus Marwin. In what world do you not go for the 2nd sure out. Runner on 3rd doesn’t mean d*ck at that point.

    It should be unearned, because even with it not being an error, the fielder's choice "assumes" an out should have been made on the play.

    Sick of Marwin in the lineup every day. And no, not just because of this game, before the game even started I was thinking "Why start Marwin against a lefty?" He sucks way more as a right handed hitter.

    Somehow Marwin has zero errors in this game

    Any reason why Marwin isn't played at 1B, with Bregman & Yuli at their natural SS and 3B positions until Correa returns?

    Now do we keep McHugh in for the save, or bring in Rondon?
    Davis at 1B instead of Marwin, especially against lefties. Why bring up JD if you don't use him? I've said many times that 2017 Marwin is gone for good, and his value should be only as a bench IF. He's a switch hitter in name only, righty Marwin is terrible.

    For all of the stupid asses who suggested trading Carlos Correa over the last few days, this game should be remembered.

    He's looking like a regular Billy Beane up there. ;)

    And is he above bunting at this point? Why wasn't Hinch bunting with him to get the runners over? They are treating him like he is already a big time run producer in the majors.

    Wait, what?

    He's hit the ball hard twice tonight, but both on the ground. But no, he doesn't look great at the plate so far.

    This group of Astros core players.... might be my favorite group of guys on any Houston team I’ve ever watched. More than the Rockets championship team.

    Still love Basketball more... but something about the chemistry of this team that makes it special.
