    Jesus, first inning pitching for the Astros has been horrendous so far in the early season.

    Fiers isn't locating his fastball at all.

    Fiers and Feldman should pitch a practice 1st inning before taking the field.

    Fiers is indeed a wild card. Fluctuates from looking unhittable to throwing batting practice.

    Reminds me some of Felipe Paulino.

    Fiers has looked like crap his first couple games. Astros have the offense this year but pitching is scary. Hopefully LMJ comes back and is a clear number 2. Maybe Fister will surprise and bring back 2014. How about a fire sale in oakland and sonny gray? That would be great.

    Nothing about fiers fister and feldman blow my skirt up.

    2 on, no outs....

    Astros have a chance for a huge inning.


    Was thinking the same.

    He had backup (Springer) if he dove and missed.

    Remember the players we had before Gomez and Fiers?

    Luhnow's trades are currently a fail.
