I’m not upset with the loss. I mean Framber failed, shocker. Chirinos struck out, shocker. Springer homered twice, they made Canning look bad, and they still scored 6 runs. Scored 6 but blew chances for many more. The defense sucked.

Altuve be like: "Hey guys, I'm back!" The next day: "Oh shit, I'm still not very good yet..." I hate when Altuve has back to back awesome games because that usually means he gets way too aggressive and then swings at every pitch until he gets dialed back in. I agree and his 0-4 last night was caused by being too aggressive. His brain often goes blank and it did last night.

Chirinos failing with the bases loaded was just par for the course for the bottom of the order.

Could be he is being over-worked this has something to do with it. He has to catch so much because Stassi does nothing with the bat. We should have kept Stubbs and let Stassi go.

I think Stassi is another White but with more value due to pitch framing and such. I don’t think he has any options left.
