2026 Astros

Baddog glad to see Javier finally have a good game. I know it is rare for him to pitch good but glad he did

[baddog]

He had Tommy-John surgery and he was our star pitcher during a WS championship. He’s like any pitcher and could use some run support., but when he pitches like this, it makes the wins much easier.

Bad loss tonight, but maintain a 3 game lead.  

[rupert3]

Very tough loss but wake up tomorrow maybe.   Altuve and Alvarez in big slump.  Alvarez still hitting just not dingers.  I liked it when they walked him to get to Paredes.  That didn't work and that is when I thought we had it.

Actually we 4 up because we hold the tiebreaker.  If you want to look at it that way.

[rupert3]

Not meant to be, 3-2 setback just no hitting today except Alcarez Number 38 dinger.  I think but not sure that Altuve got his 2500th hit.  I'm sure I'll be corrected.

Pitching by Lambert improved after their first 2 runs

Arlington ahead 7-6 top of 8

[myrecordwashorrible]

Altuve entered today 4 hits shy of 2500 and picked up 3.  Will likely get it on the upcoming road trip. 

Up and down season to say the least. Was hoping for a solid 4 game lead after the eeekend and now likely will be a 2 game lead.

Sorry repost. I deleted the info but don't know how to delete post entirely.

Arlington wins 8-6 on Seager hr in 8th

[spidersal]

It is certainly an up and down season. For some reason when they pitch good, they don’t hit and when they hit, they struggle on the mound. They are having a hard time putting it all together

Luckily they are probably in the weakest division in the major leagues 

[rupert3]

Well it's crunch time,  Of course I will be pulling for the Stros but I will also pull for the Mariners to a point.  However we need to take care of business and win for ourselves.  Next 3 days could be reall interesting.  So go Stros

6-5 win over Philly. 

Hadar hung on for that save.

[myrecordwashorrible]

Winner!  Anyone else get even more worried when it was reported the Schwarber was 0 for 15 lifetime against Hader?

[rupert3]

What a scary win Bullpen made it soooo interestin/scary 3 dingers Wesneski 5-1 Hader 24/24 saves.  Altuve still waiting for 2500  Maybe tomorrow

[spidersal]

Blubaugh is usually effective, not tonight. Hung on for the much needed win. Looked like a Bridge City man pitched some in relief for the Phillies

[A BUC 77]

Yeah Blubaugh has been great lately.  So I can’t be too mad.  This is a great Phillies team though.   Peña’s great play and Marshes base running era may have saved the game.  Hader finally gave up a run but the Stros hung on.  Yordan needs to get rolling.  I like how the Astros get up when they play good teams.
