Bregman was the biggest example of that concern. But you don't want Breggy to hit homers. You want him to line doubles to right fieldI expect more homers from him. Right now, Altuve is putting him to shame. I also want Bregman to line more hits to right because he can’t hit homers that way. He can’t just keep giving away strikes to pitchers.

Garcia with a nice bounce back game. I hope they let him take the 6th.

Nobody is complaining about Jose's HRs. It's what he's doing in between the HRs. Higher strikeouts than normal and way less hits. (Compared to what he has done before.) Maybe it's him evolving as he ages. Who knows? For a long time the team's approach at the plate had been to be more selective. Hinch had been trying to get them to take more walks since 2016. It's frustrating when they fall back into the old approach cause it means taking strike three now and again, but it's probably out of habit guys are sitting on their favorite pitch so they can knock the hell out of it

Maybe it's him evolving as he ages. Who knows? He needs to do less 3 RBI HRs, which happen to be the only Astro scoring in this game, and more singles damn it!!!!

Garcia can't throw more than 88 pitches?

Altuve should teach Straw how to bunt.

Man, they really couldn’t do one more inning with García?

So, Manaea can get a K on a pitch way inside, but Javier can’t get a low strike in the zone?

The Stros need Murphy to hit in another TP.

I haven't looked at the numbers lately, but I feel like Javier has been struggling out of the pen lately.

Well, it sucks to give up the lead but it could have been a lot worse.

Speaking of HR. It would be nice if Brantley and Yuli were hitting a few more.

Down in order. At least Yuli fouled off a ton of pitches and made Manaea work for the out.

Taylor doesn't look like the answer...

Altuve has decided to make this inning as hard as possible bfor Taylor.

Are we allowed to criticize Altuve’s defense here?
