There’s just no urgency with Baker. He’s managing like it’s a normal 162 game season.

I don’t give a frick how taxed your bullpen is. No way you put Bert back out there after he gives you a clean 6th. You have got to win this game

Stubbs puts the ball in play there. Idiotic move pinch hitting Toro

This is like taking all the bullshite from a worst case 162 game season and squeezing it into a boudin casing that’s only one third the size that it should be.

Three straight fricking games you go into the last inning with a lead and you blow it. Absolutely inexcusable it sucks so much that these fricking assholes are still going to make the playoffs so gotta keep watching. frick this

20 runs in 3 games. And two of those were 7 innings. 0-3.

How are they ever expected to win this game when you are banking on six outs from Bert? That’s horrible bullpen management.

Pressly gotta be in the game. Don’t care that he threw the night before you battled your arse off to have a chance to win again you put your best arm out there.

I couldn’t agree more. And he’s no sure thing by any means. But you go with your best guy, especially after you blew game 1. And maybe if you win game 1, THEN you go with Bert. But when you’re about to get swept?

As someone said earlier this is on McCullers too with his trash performance last night.

As much as I want to agree, I trust Strom. Pressly had thrown 3 of last 4 days and they didn't want to use him. They don't want to hurt the guy, and I can respect that.

Someone out of the pen needed to sack up and get outs. This is what happens when you have a bunch of rookies.

The Giants, Cubs, Reds and Nationals all canned this guy and only the Cubs fired him after a losing season. They just fired him because they were tired of his shite. He hasn’t managed 40 games with the Astros, and I’m already tired of his shite.

He has a “woe is me” attitude, and that’s the last thing this team needs after all the stuff swirling around this team. I don’t care about this season, but it’s not good the Astros already picked up his option for 2021. Maybe an utter collapse in September would shake Jim Crane back to his senses.

We're by far the biggest loser at the deadline. I would've liked to get a starter too, but there's no excuse to not getting bullpen help. None.

It appears the Astros are just going thru the motions. It's apparent that ownership and management had no interest in acquisitions before the deadline.
