    I was so mad at that bunt attempt call that I had forgotten about that no-out strikeout. 2nd time in as many games!

    Yep, but we caught a break on the Deshields ball or else Chirinos also scores.

    It annoys me when catchers let a ball go through their legs, not the easiest play in the world but that's their job.

    Let’s see. Mike Minor is 2-4 with a 7+ ERA on the road and he is taking us to the woodshed. Awesome. Vaunted offense is going down with a feeble whimper. Yea I know altuve and Correa are out. But no excuse. Really concerned about Springer. Dude left his load on the wall in the World Series and thus far this year is meh.

    I rather have the Baltimore offense right now and they’re the worst team in the league

    This is one miserable offense. I can’t believe we are going to get swept

    This team looks completely lost right now. Both in the field and at the plate. We. Need. To. Trade. For. A. Bat.

    Proof that the rangers roll with tampons and pads.

    Astros without Altuve and Correa is still better than some teams out there. No excuse why we can’t get more than three hits a game

    There’s no excuse to look this bad. It’s 2013 out there again.

    Springer is who he is, a streaky hitter. You just have to wait for his hot streaks. In the mean time he's not really dependable. Bregs is coming into his own and is still doing well with Altuve and Correa out but with so many other inconsistent to bad bats in the lineup it's hard for him to just put all these guys on his back. White of all people is the only one with a hit today, lol.

    Are they? I don't expect much consistency from this offense without those guys (or at least one of them). Even Bregman wasn't expected to be as good this season as his numbers have shown thus far, and regression was bound to set in.

    I mean, Altuve and Correa are god damn franchise cornerstones. If they were easily replaceable, I'd question paying big money to anybody (either now, or in the future).
