I prefer Loustradamus, but that works, too.

Nah, you're @Loucifer

well, his arm should be nice and rested from last week's outing...

it's wins like this that let me know to expect more losses like this.

Stunned to hear the final score.

Not the greatest game ever, but if I was the Astros I'd feel much worse about it. Embarrassing loss for them after Greinke pitched a pretty solid one today. Also, Osuna getting taken out with injury - not the best day for them at all. With Verlander out, they can't afford to be losing Greinke starts. I'm starting to feel like the A's might take the division in 2020.

Biggest concern for me today was Robles. Feels like he hasn't been great, and that's not great news when considering that really no one in the pen has been consistently good, so far as I can tell.

Starting pitching actually feels okay, at the moment. Offense is not bad and should improve. Bullpen, though, feels like the wheels are going to fall off every game.

23 runs in the 7-9 over 9 games.  They have been consistent....

Consistently bad!

Tonight is further proof that winning is much better than losing.

This goes for any regular starter not named Ohtani, so far.   Andriese doesn't count.

Wish the bullpen would actually listen to Callaway's thoughts.
