OH NO!!! The offense is tanking!! Naw it was time for the Game's DP for the Astros. Come on you know they have to have at least one DP per game. It's a standard they set. |

If I am not mistaken with that run scored today Tucker has more runs scored than he does hits. Correct. Five runs and four hits. His WAR is -.2. Well if that WAR has not been turned positive by a good bit by the time he gets 40 more at bats then it might be time to be concerned as far as 2018 goes anyway. Even with only getting 4 hits so far a -.2 seems a bit harsh. |

The old George has checked in today. Good to see. He seems to be rounding back into shape. Now when he hits a home run or two we will know he is starting to click. |

Barring a horrible game by the bullpen, Cole will join the 10-win club.

98 pitches thru 5 for Cole. I wonder what changed to cause him to use more pitches per plate appearance than he was. Still a one hit shut out through 5 is hard to turn your nose up at. |

Maybe the lead gets comfortable enough to bring Perez into this game at some point.

Has this ump's strike zone been this bad all day Yes. Very inconsistent. But it has been equally bad for both pitchers. |

Does Cole come back to start the 7th?

Does Cole come back to start the 7th? The 6th yes, but I kinda doubt the 7th unless he can do the 6th on half a dozen pitches. |

Having Smith in dominant form for the playoffs would be so good

With this game, the Astros' team OPS should climb back into the .770s. Not a bad place to be by the ASB. With the right upgrades, maybe they can finish around .800 on the year.

An interesting comment from the Giles article:
The Astros will not allow Ken Giles to finish games the Astros are leading by fewer than 4 runs until Ken Giles is better in non-save situations." |
