If this ends up with the Cardinals winning the NL Central......

If this ends up with the Cardinals winning the NL Central......

As much as I hate the Cards, which is a lot, I would soooo much prefer that to KBIB being happy at all so lesser of two evils I guess

Yeah, pretty much.

SMH Astros

 

[AdmiralsFan24]

The Brewers just scored 10 runs (6 earned) in 4 games against Ervin Santana, Adalberto Mejia, Bartolo Colon, Dietrich Enns and one of the worst bullpens in the majors.

They've scored 25 runs in 10 August games.

Astros going down the toilet. White Sox sweep them 3-0.

 

[c9777666]

Of course the Astros got swept by the White Sox.

From the 1st inning of Tuesday (3 runs in 1st inning of this series) all the way through the later innings tonight, the White Sox did almost no wrong.

They finally fell behind? Tie it in the 9th.

Baserunners in the 10th/11th/12th? Throw the perfect pitch to get out of it.

It was almost as if for three games, the White Sox lived a charmed life- where everything just went right and nothing wrong.

Coming off a bad sweep in Boston before this no less.

Now watch them get swept by KC.

The Astros road record was bound to regress but I never saw THAT coming.

Good to see Moncada starting to hit.

Mariners getting shut down by Tyler Skaggs.

Given the Mariners' recent trend of scoring late and the Astros basically letting them back into the AL West, don't be surprised if the Mariners comeback as they did on Tuesday.

EDIT: Called it.

More possible pitching issues for Seattle, James Paxton just left the game with an apparent Pectoral injury.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

A's suck and are gonna lose, but that double by Adam Jones was foul by a foot.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

All comes down to the grade:

Grade 1 recovery takes a matter of days. You can return to training when the symptoms have disappeared.
Grade 2 recovery is a matter of weeks—approximately 2-6.
Grade 3 complete tears usually require surgery; full recovery takes months.

 

[c9777666]

Tie game. Boomstick.

Starting to get some 1995 vibes here.

Dare I say these Astros suddenly looking like those 1995 Angels?

Refuse to Lose 2.0?

EDIT: And then THAT happened.

 

[Sacha Baron Corbin]

Bud Norris does it again, 3-0 to 3-3 in the 8th.

Why Scocia continues to trot this guy out in the middle of a playoff race is beyond me

 

[Sacha Baron Corbin]

Michael Nelson Trout! Bases clearing double in the 9th!

 

[PG Canuck]

Can see Diaz is struggling...

Scott Servais: Nahhhh leave him in screw it

Tough call.

Just for comparison, who are the other Mariner relievers that fill the gap between the starters and Diaz?

Dude got the win. What are you talking about?

 

[Sacha Baron Corbin]

Dude got the win. What are you talking about?

his last 5 outings are something to marvel at, 3 1/3 innings with an ERA over 21

Huge win for the Halos though, the reigning MVP does it again!
