    No, there is no leader on this team offensively after Altuve. That is saddening.

    Sandy Koufax Bassit is mowing through them.

    When Maldanado was in his feelings about adding a catcher, they should have parted ways then.

    Typical Astros offense, to follow up an offensive explosion with blanks the next day...

    At some point, they're gonna have to acknowledge their record with and without him this season and admit that there's a correlation. They already screwed up by letting Vasquez walk, but they don't need to compound matters by continuing to cave to the demands of a guy who damn near guarantees a loss when he's in the lineup.

    I don't think the calvary is on the way. As someone wrote, the Astros look like a .500 team. Can they flip the switch into turbo mode? Hmmm.

    If they stay under .500 all season, no one will see them coming. Genius

    Complete arrogance that they thought they can just turn it around.

    We had a great offensive day yesterday so this was expected i guess. Especially against a bum like Bassit.

    If you're relying on Meyers and Maldy for offense, you're not gonna win many games. And I don't want to hear about the 9-2 win yesterday. That was an anomaly and everyone knows it.

    They're unfortunately kinda stuck with Meyers right now, but Dusty has to stop playing them both.

    Bassit has been a sub 3.50 ERA each of the last 5 seasons. He's a #2 or #3 starter.

    Forget just winning games. The players getting paid big bucks can eek out at least 1 run

    Good strategy to let maldy hit there with 2 catchers on the bench
