And once again our secondary bullpen guys can't keep the game interesting. Unreal.

Umpire might by MVP for the Astros tonight. Bad game all around tonight, it's amazing how much swagger this team lost as soon as PK got injured and sat out last Sunday.

Score some runs and win for my 10,000 post! Oh-Man just shot that to hell!

f*** it. Ohman is atrocious.

There's your ball game. Our bullpen sucks.

I think he goes through stretches where he really wants to play, and some where he doesn't. I think he's in a stretch where he looks forward to playing right now, hopefully it lasts for a while. The scouting report when he was claimed was he didn't feel like playing all the time.

 

Yeah that makes sense. The mental part of the game.

 

Man we get blown out by Houston.

Yuk.

well boys and girls not to be a fatalist or anything but I think that just about does it for tonight. Thanks Santiago and Ohman

Welp, at least it was a former De La Salle Meteor? :/

Ball 3 was a strike to Alejandro. You gotta be consistent with your zone.

When I see Ohman coming in, I want to grab a bat.

We always seem to have a guy like that, though I guess to be fair, most teams do as well.

Astros played a real late game last night Sox at home. Sox look like they got in at 5 AM.

6 straight fastballs by Ohman thrown before that homer. AJ's pulled that crap way too often this year.

When you give up 8 runs to the Astros, you deserve to lose.

 

Stop talking about Gavin being good Hawk. He sucked despite striking guys out and having great stuff.

You all hate our bullpen when our worst guys blow it but I never hear a peep when Jones-Thornton-Crain-Reed shut it down (may not be a better top 4 bullpen guys out there) and the rest of those guys are what you expect -- sometimes on, sometimes off. Paying much of anything for a bullpen arm would be very superfluous at this point. Brian Bruney is not a bad 5th reliever, might as well let him have that role. Usually Ohman does a good job against lefties, not tonight. Stewart does fine as a long man, but I wouldn't mind letting him start in the minors instead if we've got somebody else.

I'd feel worse about that if Ohman would have gone on to walk him and the Astros got another run or two...as it was, screw Ohman. Gives up a freakin' 430 ft homer to a GD left handed hitter.

It's not like Ohman can throw anything else for a strike.

No Mas!

Yeah, I don't think any team has 12 studs.

Santiago continues his run of just getting bombed in the last inning of a game (worded that way to account for the Cespedes debacle).

Instgead of 4-3 going to the bottom of the 9th the bullpen gives up 4 runs and we probably have to wait for Saturday and Chris Sale

We completely f***ed him and Stewart both. Both career starters that had a chance to put things together with another year of experience and instead they're both wasting away in new roles at the highest level of baseball.

We better wake up and win 2 of 3.

Bad start to round two of interleague, but hopefully it's a wake up call for the rest of the NL games.

We suck tonight.

I'm going to the game tomorrow. This game sure was a total bummer though. After the nice win last night, you'd expect the team to come out and play well. Instead, we hit like s*** with RISP, make dumb mistakes in the field, and pitch like crap. SMH.

Cue the Dunn bomb
