Just one hit so far?! This pitcher can't be that good.

 

[Bmurph]

His slumps are usually at the beginning of the year.

Hope he gets out of it soon, and any of the others too

What a pathetic offense.

 

[Bmurph]

Astros lose 3-1 to the Twinkies

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

Offense isn't going to run well with choo, Desmond, Beltre, Odor, and Elvis all ice cold.

Odor 7 for 21 the last 4 games before tonight.

Don't make me get on your ass too, Murph.

I didn't realize that. Some of his at bats are so ugly I guess I just assumed.

 

[Bmurph]

Reynolds is battling, Ill give him that

 

[Bmurph]

Could have been a K

 

[Bmurph]

Don't make me get on your ass too, Murph.

Id post the Mariners final score here too, if I was gonna be up that late

Delino DeShields should not get another start again this season. He is flat-out terrible, especially at bat. I would take Mazara, slump and all, 10 times out of 10 against a righty or a lefty. DeShields is completely lost at the plate. He's as automatic of an out as it gets.

 

[Bmurph]

Another starter doing his job w a QS and the offense is gonna screw him over again

 

[WilltheThrill]

Hamels did his job. Very solid 6K/2 ER outing through 6. Maybe our offense can get to their shitty pen because they sure can't seem to touch their junkball starter.

 

[Bmurph]

Yep I was just talking about you AB

2-1

Hamels did his job. Very solid 6K/2 ER outing through 6. Maybe our offense can get to their shitty pen because they sure can't seem to touch their junkball starter.

Anderson is a solid pitcher. He's not a junk baller.

 

[WilltheThrill]

I will say just one thing in defense of our hitters and that's it- it can be awfully hard to hit when you've got a pitcher slinging junk all over the place at all kinds of different speeds, particularly when that junk rarely touches the center square and the ump's zone is inconsistent.

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

Beltre's next up on the 3,000 hit list. What I wouldn't give to be in the stands for that.

 

[Bmurph]

Roogie missed one there

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

Hamels did his job. Very solid 6K/2 ER outing through 6. Maybe our offense can get to their shitty pen because they sure can't seem to touch their junkball starter.

Looking at the box score, I cannot understand why it took Hamels 115 pitches to get through 6 innings.
