    No we will come back. It seems unlikely Colome and Diaz will go 4 days in a row.

    Juan Soto is only 19 and he’s raking it for the Nationals. Other prospects from other teams got called up and is helping their team. What’s Tucker excuse?

    2-0 might as well be 20-0

    Yeah I just don’t get the lackadaisical attitude that this team has way too often. We need that Biggio that sets the tone.

    Seriously 117 pitches for Dallas is way too many. Usually Sunday Astros games end around 4:30 or so, this maybe over at 3:30pm which means the Stros hitters aren't being patient. They are rushing to hit things. 1 pitch and done from Gattis. Ofc Mariners will do this 1 pitcher per 1 batter thing again to slow the woeful game.

    What was it about Keuchel's last inning or so was telling you he was tired?

    I really wished we got Stanton when we had the chance (listed the Astros as place he wants to play), or Carlos Gonzalez before the season.

    No one should be complaining about Keuchel. Giving up 2 runs in 7 innings is a damn good start. At some point our hitters need to hit the damn ball.

    9 home losses in a row is nuts.

    Mariners going to close it out with King Felix. I honestly like our chances against him.

    You like our chances?

    Are you kidding me?

    I don’t like our chances against ny grandmother throwing 65 mph meatballs down the middle

    Something else to think about...does anyone really like our chances in a WC game against Seattle?! I sure don’t. They have Paxton and a great bullpen. We need to right the ship and re-extend the division lead. A comeback today would be so huge.

    That swing right there by Margo sums up this team right now and their funk

    Astros have hit King Felix well before and he is really struggling.

    I refuse to give the Mariners any credit. This series is all about the Astros ineptness. The Mariners are not that impressive to me. The A's are the bigger threat. The Astros have had their chances to have a comfortable lead by now and have **** the bed in two straight heartless series at home against the Rangers and Mariners. The pitching is so good on this team. If the offense was just consistently average over the year instead of feast or famine, the lead would be at least 7 or 8 games by now. Just frustrating that they are wasting such good pitching so often.
