Man. Rough season so far....even for DK. What is going on? Was last season a fluke?....not as far along with the rebuild process as it seemed? I know it's a long season...162 games...bleh...
The issue is that the team hasn't responded well to adversity to this point whatsoever. They are just falling apart.
But 6 of the next 12 are against Seattle, said one poster. :grin: Yeah, worst team in the AL can't look down on anyone.
Yeah, we had a lot of things rolling our way last season. Looks like things are evening out by being the opposite this season. The team seemed so clutch last year.
So Rockets contender expectations = turrible season Astros contender expectations = second worst record in the league Texans likely playoffs but not a serious contender = ?????
This collective group is a mentally weak bunch that can't handle success or expectations it appears. There's personnel issues but this team looks mentally weak as well. Pressing, trying to do too much on the base paths, fielding problems, major regression in pitching, etc. It doesn't help that Hinch is not capable of steering this mess in any direction.
Please... His throws on the run all of last year were consistently accurate. I think somebody introduced him to alcohol... Gomez?
