Almost felt like expected punishment from the baseball gods. It wasn't a mistake at all, honestly. Robert hit a rope to SS, Abreu was off second as he should be, just unfortunate.

It's not like older managers can't adapt, but what reason is there to believe that TLR is willing to do so? Houston has a competent analytics department that can keep older guys like Dusty in check. It's pretty clear TLR is the analytics department at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things can change, but they needed everything to go right this year and everyone play at their peak potential. They didn’t account for injuries, lack of depth, nor regression. It is year 5 of the rebuild. This team should be a juggernaut that is ready to take the American League by the Balls. The Northsiders did it to the NL 5 years back. The Sox can do it too.

Or when Trout, Rendon, and Upton are coming up. Bring in Foster in the 7th with the bases empty and Heuer or someone warming as backup. Not hard. And your positive that the 3 hits that Foster gave wouldn't have lead to more? I disagree that struggling pitchers are as easily handled as you say. Using only 2 pitchers in high leverage situations every game is going to wear them out very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
