    As usual, George can't convert with RISP. He just tries to do too damn much.

    Keep your head in.

    RISP or RIP????

    This team is awful with runners in scoring position.

    Now, my problem with springer is he has NEVER hit with RISP

    Springer RISP

    Why are our guys so bad at shortening the swing and making contact to get a run home w/less than 1 out?? Is this the result of analytics? I think I'll take old fashioned good situational hitting

    Everyone would. I don't understand it at all, the team doesn't change their approach situationally whatsoever...

    If I was an opposing team I'd load the bases to start every inning then watch my team give up 0 runs against the Astros :(

    No no no, everything's fine and great, the season's early. No need to worry about silly things like scoring runs and winning games. Just drink the kool aid

    I'm just so sick of watching the same issue every night. They don't adapt to the situation at all and it has cost them multiple games this year and will continue to cost them until they fix it.

    For F SAKE. Is there any sports person in Houston that doesn't crumble like a damn stale cookie when it counts. Springer. Come on man. Show that you are worth more than a wet f'ing fart. Just a fly ball for a run.

    When things aren't going your way, things like that always seem to happen. Just gotta get something rolling.
