This team has had some bad losses this year but this has to be the worst

Why even have a coaching staff at all.

Chorinos clearly knew he needed the triple for the cycle and put himself above the team.

That’s what is sad about this team sometimes. Such great talent but they all want to be the hero and make dumb mistakes.

Despite their record this team is very flawed. Al the people in this city and on the radio jizzing in themselves and claiming the WS was a done deal after trading for Greinke are going to look like fools once playoff time hits.

I heard this game was Astros -500 today. I knew it'd be a loss. Amazing stuff

The kids in Williamsport are smarter base runners than the Astros.

Worst loss of the year. Tell me a story, AJ. Tell me you bet on Detroit. Tell me why 2 players made the dumbest mistakes of the year. Tell me how rested Brantley is. Long time since I’ve been this pissed.

i hope Brantley was well rested tonight. We obviously didn’t need him.


It's the Bobby Cox book of baseball, your ace is pitching so you can afford to rest starters.............then it bites you in the arse like it has 3 straight Verlander starts

Hunch has nothing to do with those retards trying to take 3rd

You learn in fricking little league not to make 1st or 3rd out at 3rd base. Infuriating to watch

It’s 100% a symptom of the larger disease. Hunch is on autopilot. There’s no demand to have attention to detail. There’s no rhyme or reason to days off and having 3 minor league players in the lineup (marisnicks bat is kind to call it aaa) Altuve gets thrown out at third he doesn’t bat an eye

Mr self proclaimed steady heart beat doesn’t say a thing and guess what it happens the next inning

The old cliche about solo homers don’t beat you does not apply to us and definitely doesn’t apply to Verlander.

If you think someone bet on the game and tried to fix it, look at the Astros third base coach. He is the one that likely made the call to go and not hold up at second.

I mean, Brantley did have to play 3 games in scorching Chicago, 4 in blazing Oakland, and then the last two nights in the balmy Ac of Minute Maid..,dude probably has needed salt tablets and iv’s just to stay upright

Would be nice to have Tucker at the bottom of this lineup.

Hi, I'm AJ Hinch. I went to Stanford. I'm a genius, and you're not.

Hinch can’t remember any inning ending outs at third base. He just proved he’s doing anything but watching the games.

This game was lost when the lineup card was submitted. In what world did AJ think a lineup including marisnick mayfield and straw AND no Brantley was a good idea?

Even if Tucker were called up, he wouldn't play. They've done it before.

That smug sob, Hinch. I’m glad I don’t drink much.
