Yeah, saw it on twitter the other day. Wasn't supposed to be Astros merch, they just used Keuchel as a model photo.
IT'S NOT KEUCHEL DAY AFTER ALL

>>76396345
He's sick
It was a throw-away game the minute they started the rookies again desu
>Hud rambling on about Kathleen Turner and Romancing the Stone

I don't even see what they're trying to do with that...
just got home and I gotta say I'm not too happy with this game brehs
>>76398801
>I gotta say I'm not too happy with this game brehs
Don't worry, spacebro. It's a throwaway game. Keuchel was out sick so we had a starter comparable to Fiers (maybe worse) on the mound. If we come back in the 8-9th I'd be pleasantly surprised.
>no 8th inning miracle comeback

>we're getting spoiled, aren't we?
We are, hahahaha.
Once we're done with this series we'll have some fun with the Angels.
reminder that fLuke Gregerson getting through two scoreless innings is the equivalent of winning the game to me personally

It would be oddly fitting that Luke Gregerson would do good in a losing game.
