Milo Hamilton’s Microphone

I support a professional baseball team.

@DavidMorant48 @1RealKillaCam @astros @MethodistHosp He did walk a guy with 2 outs but it’s ok.

1st outing back this season and he probably just wanted to fit in with the rest of the staff.

#Astros win! (Final: 11-9).

This one looked like a guaranteed loss. But they pull off a miraculous comeback, with 6 runs in the Bottom of the 8th.

Pitching was terrible. But Hader got the save in his season debut. Rubber game tomorrow night.

Record: 28-35

I don’t believe what I just saw.

6 runs all with 2 outs and nobody on base. Would be huge if they can finish the job.

@BenOndaTop Bad manager and an even worse bullpen.

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

@BenOndaTop Astros fans love to look at numbers and not what their eyes tell them.

Arrighetti deserves a lot of credit for being the Ace of this staff right now, but he’s been very lucky as well. Walks and hits a lot of batters. There’s always one bases loaded jam he has to get out of.

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

For a franchise that has typically been known for its tradition of good pitching, this 2026 staff really is an embarrassment.

These guys might finish with the worst overall Team ERA and walk rate in 65 years as a team.

#Astros

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

On Friday night, they were six outs away from chipping their record back to 5 games under .500

They were playing solid baseball. Then Espada used Abreu and they ended up losing the game. Really sucked all the momentum away. Now the pitching is right back to dogshit.

#Astros

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

At the end of the day, you just won’t win with this pitching staff.

The lineup is battling with all its limitations. But pitching teased everyone for like 2 weeks, by beating up on the Cubs and Rangers.

It’s the worst staff in baseball, from head to toe.

#Astros

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

@BenOndaTop Said the same thing.

He’s had good numbers. But he issues at least 3-4 walks every outing.

We’re just a bad team. And bearing up on the Rangers and Cubs fooled everybody.

Walks and HBPs, with 2 outs and nobody on base. I believe it’s partially coaching.

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

Spencer Arrighetti has been very good for the #Astros.

But he has lived on the edge constantly. Walks and HBPs. All of that happening with 2 outs and nobody on base.

Fundamentally, our pitching staff is poorly coached. They don’t attack hitters. They nibble.

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

I just don’t get this obsession with the standings.

There’s nothing to brag about with this bad division, so it’s entirely irrelevant whether they’re in 3rd or 4th or 5th place.

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

You gotta stop worrying about the division standings, man.

They’re 8 games under .500

Getting back to above .500 and staying there is the only thing people should be paying attention to. If they do that, the AL West will take care of itself.

#Astros

5.5 back now. Feels like a free fall

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

@MooneyOwnsYou @KevinHe57306966 Most delusional fans in baseball and it isn’t even close lmao.

“The entire org gets a W for 2017”.

Yes, you were the best runner up in baseball history! 🤣. In reality, 2017 LAD was very good but not great and will be a minor footnote to future generations (at best).

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

Nightengale must be on LAD’s payroll himself. What a shameless article lol.

Remember folks, “EVERY team can spend $400 million on their payroll and collude with MLB to manipulate the free agent market. You’re just all poor and stupid and lazy!!”

#Dodgers 🤡

Dodgers fire back at critics of LA's big spending amid MLB CBA talks https://t.co/lZz8ZFjX4C

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

The #Astros’ realistic goal at this point is to be 2 or 3 games under .500 by the All Star Break.

If they somehow get to 84-85 wins (which should be enough for an AL postseason spot), they will need the entire calendar to do it.

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

Lidge was nowhere close to this bad.

Bryan Abreu is actually just a fundamentally bad pitcher, who got away with electric “stuff” for years. Lidge was way more mental. Bryan is just not a good professional pitcher.

#Astros

[Doug Daikindome ジョン・アレクサンダー @jalex_819]

Haven't seen a once dominant reliever fall off this hard since 2007 Brad Lidge

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

#Astros lose (Final: 10-6).

Pitching, which has slowly been improving, was putrid tonight. The staff issued 8 walks total.

Bryan Abreu should probably just be DFA’d at this point. He has shown he can’t pitch in any type of situation.

Record: 27-35

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

@StrosBro Santa is a rookie who has made like 2 appearances lol.

This would’ve been a great time for him to pitch.

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

Joe Espada wasting Blubaugh in the 9th inning of a 9-4 deficit is something I just can’t understand.

He’s one of your better arms in the bullpen and you use him now?

It’s another #JoeGem 💎

#Astros

[Milo Hamilton’s Microphone @MicrophoneMilo]

Blubaugh gives up a run, but who really cares in mop up duty?

Why do you continue to use this guy in situations that don’t matter?
