I'm pretty sure no matter what happens, we're staying with what we have this deadline. The front office will go "this wasn't supposed to be a competing year" and hope for the best in the offseason.

Proven wrong mere hours after posting.

First pitch of the night to Kwan.. right down the middle..mid-thigh high.. a pitch that a ML'er should crush.. is spit on.. like virtually every other first pitch of an at bat for Kwan...

BTW - Your battery is Noah and Noah.
(Gotta be the 1st time in MLB history.)

Astros gonna rack up a record amount of steals tonight.

Straw dekes Altuve into believing he will catch that dying quayle off Tucker's bat.. keeping him from scoring..

Tucker immediately steals second.. again..off of Thor..

 

[eChameleon]

Noah gets out of it!

 

[Mott the Hoople]

WTH . Could've been worse.

The curve from Synder is about 78... the change up is about 80.. the fastball is as high as 96 (if that radar gun was correct)... Thor kept the ball on the outer half of the plate or just off.. A strong defensive play by Jose prevented a run from scoring..

One inning done.. 0-0

Well for some reason the game WAS on Bally on Fubo TV.. but now it's gone. Wtf happened?

 

[CATS44]

Defense wins the first round vs Astros batters.

Straws rep in center and a little acting keeps Altuve from trying to score. Joses play to his left did the same.

Even though Bell got a single to RF..he was clearly fooled on the pitch.. he caught enough of it to get it into RF>.

Arias hits a two bouncer that hits the turf and bounces over the two little guys in the Stros' middle infield for a single...
