It's like he's been trying to get released all season.

How many losses is Dyson responsible for now?

Fan interference. This guy reaches in and plucks a barely fair ball that I'm sure he thought was foul. He gets booted. Fine. But he gave the ball to his son, who was maybe two, and the usher took the ball. Now I get tossing the guy, and I get not wanting to let adults keep balls like that, but couldn't they just let the kids keep it or give them another ball or something? It just seems like a kick in the teeth to be a kid, get a real baseball, and have some usher take it away just because your old man wasn't paying close enough attention.

How about Jordan Jankowski's major league debut in Houston? He comes in for Houston to the 9th inning of a 4-2 game with the Tigers leading. 

He strikes out Mikey Mahtook swinging.

He strikes out Andrew Romine swinging.

He gives up a standup triple to Tyler Collins, who was 5 for 50 on the road this year.

He has an 11 pitch battle with Jose Iglesias, which ends with Iglesias hitting his second homer of the year. 6-2 Tigers.

He strikes out Ian Kinsler swinging.

That was a decent outing for a rook. Striking out the side and giving up a homer that is only a homer less than 10% of the time based on exit velocity and launch angle. A couple feet to the right and it's a loud out. Tigers would have won the game anyway since the only run we got in the bottom of the ninth was a solo shot by Bregman. Good game on both sides though. Greene was dominant, I was impressed. Devo has been a bit overused, and probably shouldn't have been used for such another long outing in the same series. He's still got a good chance to be an All-star this year though.

Tonight's game is almost guaranteed to be a Tigers win though, Fiers averages over 3 home runs/9 innings. I hope McHugh comes back soon so we can take his ass outta the rotation.

Bregman and Iglesias' homers were the exact same distance, 348 feet. They both came back onto the field too. Statcast gave Iggy's homer an 8% hit probability, and Bregman's had a 7% hit probability. 

The Crawford Box giveth, the Crawford Box taketh away!

I think I read that Bregman's homer was actually only about 1% probability, lol.
Yeah, a lot of other teams' fans hate the Crawford boxes, but if you have the pitching to allow long fly balls more towards center, that cavernous CF (admittedly less cavernous now that they took out Tal's Hill, good riddance) will turn them into loud outs.

I'm so sick of Verlander taking two months to get it going every year. They need a win tonight because they have 4 games in the next 48 hours, and Verlnader goes up there throwing batting practice. He had this game too and he just completely fell apart.

No, the Astros are turning the AC on when their guys bat and turning it off when the Tigers bat. 

And don't laugh, because everyone knows that Minnesota used to do that at the Metrodome.

That was a crazy game. Decided on a 400ft homer by our 4th outfielder who is normally a defensive replacement. Jake from Rake Farm!

Series wins for the Astros verses losses: 12-3. That's pretty incredible. It's to the point I don't even look at individual losses, as long as we win the series.

KC is in town tonight. Weve got a score to settle too.

Thats the weird thing about Cleveland sports. We'll kick the #1 team's ass handily, and the sorriest teams will kick ours. We win when not supposed to, and lose when we are expected to.

starting pitching has been especially awful. even when they get a decent start, they can't drive in any runs. still time to get their shit together, hopefully it's sooner than later.

It might not be long at this rate before the O's start dealing.  This would be the year for big trades with so many players contracts coming to an end after the 2018 season.  Machado, Britton, Jones, etc.

so a coupla weeks ago, the Astros beat the Yankees, first in the AL East, in a 4 game series. Now they head to Minnesota to take on the AL Central leading Twins. Gonna be tough without Charlie Morton, who just got put on the 10 day DL, and maybe there for longer. Brad Peacock, who 1 hit the Tigers in a spot start while Keuchel was on the dl, gets another chance to remain in the rotation.
Another down side of Morton going on the dl is Fiers is still in the rotation instead of being moved to the pen.

Astros down 8-2 going into the 8th against the Twins, score 11 runs in the inning, then 3 more in the 9th. Their previous record when down 6+ runs in the 8th since 1962 was 0-659. First time the Astros had scored 11 runs in an inning since July 1994.

So I was watching the fight in San Fran...Harper took a couple shots to the kisser looked like. Good!

But, they must not have been very hard hits. There wasn't any blood. 

These guys act like tough guys, but they can't hit for shit. Some of the shots Harper took looked like sissy swings. 

What a disappointment. 

I hope they both get 10 game suspensions for fighting like girls.

40 runs in 3 games. Astros took the Twins to the woodpile 17-6. Almost wish we could save some of those runs for the series against the Mall Cops. Pitching line-up for that series is Cy Keuchel, McCullers, and Peacock so should be a good one.

Just some time off to keep his innings down. I think they made the excuse he had slight muscle soreness. While we have this huge lead in the standings, might as well use the 10 day dl to our advantage
