    I am not going to complain too much. These guys have been great overall.

    Not their night tonight though. Fortunately, a new day is less than 2 hours away.

    Name me something more guaranteed than the Astros struggling against a pitcher with a 5+ ERA?

    Maybe it’s just me, but it sure doesn’t seem like it.

    I cannot remember the last time we won a game!
    Tucker better hit 3 home runs tomorrow, no pressure.

    Astros scoring 1/no runs after scoring 10 (or more) the previous game. :D

    I wonder if Brinson or Dirden can do better than what Meyers is doing right now. Clearly, he isn't the same guy we saw last year.

    He's either hurt, or, maybe he's just been figured out. Either way I expect Matijevic to be the first one up if Jake is sent down/put on the IL, especially with Chas expected to be back shortly.

    Astros are going to regret not winning while the Yankees were on their slide.

    I guess Dusty isn't playing Hensley anytime soon. He's just there to keep the bench warm.

    So the worst ****ing pitcher on the planet just comes in and destroys us. Cool.

    Gotta be the 15th time that's happened this season :rolleyes:

    That's the hope. But not necessarily my expectation. I think THAT GUY may not show up until next year.

    HOF pitchers are no problem. Dregs and rookies are our Kryptonite.

    They need to open their eyes and forget the doctors report. Something IS wrong, Jakes has never been this bad. But MLB isn't the place right now. He need MiLB rehab and another Doctor's opinion. It may not be a structural issue. Perhaps something else.

    I believe in Jake, which is why I believe something else is going on and they need to find out what it is,
