If we lose this one, we deserve to lose it for blowing all of the chances we had to score.......twice with runners on second and third with one out and nothing. Now, leaving the bases loaded with no outs. Pitiful

If the Astros lose, it is every bit deserved.

Stanek is officially garbage. I had a feeling Seager would nail him and I was right. This idiot ignores baserunners and then grooves pitches.

Once again Correa strikes out which would have won the game with a hit for an out and now next inning the pitcher gives up a zillion runs.

Correa should’ve swung, but Castro and Yuli blew it more.

Graveman better stop giving up hits like Stanek. Pressly just plain blew it.

Correa should’ve swung, but Castro and Yuli blew it more. Agreed. The pitch Carlos took wasn't close to being a strike.

There is no one I’d rather have at the plate right now.

There is no one I’d rather have at the plate right now. I think I know who you are talking about and I wanted him there, too. Problem was he struck out with the bases loaded just like the three guys in the 10th. I know the relievers weren't good, but, we blew several chances to win this game and didn't get one key hit when it counted.

This team can’t rely on guys like Meyers, Chas, and Jones to be their offense. If they have any hope, they need to step it up.

Yuli is second to blame.... Some of the blame goes to the guys who failed to drive in runs twice when we had runners on second and third with one out earlier in the game. The game never should have been within the Mariners' reach. We always seem to screw up when we have a chance at a sweep.

Also, it’s hard to win when your best reliever today was Raley.
Brooks.
Raley.

Yes Pressley blew it with the HR but with the bases loaded Correa or Yuli have to find a way to push one run across. This is why I am not a Fan of Correa he blows to many of the chances.

I was not too shocked at Stanek. For some reason, he doesn't think he needs to keep runners close to the bases.

Yuli has been the best in the league at getting it done in that situation. Brantley didn't look good today at all. He has started hitting too many ground balls.

I think Castro had the same chance to do it as the other two. We had bases loaded with one out in the 11th after we scored. Jose struck out and Brantley left them loaded. So, I don't think we can pin it all on Correa and Yuli. Plenty of them had chances and didn't get it done. But, look back to when we had chances to score earlier in the game and blew it. We had many chances to win and several of them had chances to drive in key runs and they all failed.

Brantley is almost exclusively a pull hitter with men on base, with the contact going to the 2B.

Brantley is almost exclusively a pull hitter with men on base, with the contact going to the 2B. And, that is hurting him the way pulling has hurt Altuve at times. Jose looks like the old version who gets multiple hits. We need the Jose we have now. We got more from Meyers and Jones in this series than we expected. I never expect hits from Maldonado so I'm pleased when he gets one. I thought Castro would make contact in the 10th, but, not this time. We can't pin this one on one or two...Several blew chances to drive in key runs.

Correa should be replaced by Bregman in the 3 hole tomorrow. Carlos cost us this game.

I love how the experts on this board are now moving on to criticizing the likely batting title champion's hitting.
