    If we are counting on Bielak to be a savior we are in trouble.

    This game may just provide the negative reinforcement to never do this again.

    True but Dusty doesn't give a single f'. He's been managing since the 1800s. He knows it's better to take the L than our players suffering from enuresis or mental fatigue during this 17 game stretch.

    Bielak entered with a 3.35 ERA

    Might finish closer to 4.5 than 4.0 before game's end

    His clock has struck midnight

    Sh1tty lineup can't score and the ump can't ump

    Sh1tty road trip

    Astros have lost the complete season series tiebreakers against 2 likely Wild-Card teams in both the Twins and Blue-Jays already. Guardians will be possibly added to this list by the end of the season. Wild-Card races always are separated by a game or two in the end. We can't keep dropping these games against Wild-Card contenders. These aren't the same regular losses as the Pirates or Giants. It looks Dusty is thinking long-term but is he really? These will effect us in the end.

    Why didn't they fly home last night, give everyone 2 days off and forfeit the game?

    Astros aren’t anything without the power bats in the lineup. That’s why I want Cintron fired. This is a trend that has been heading this way for a while. Home run or bust this year and no walks.
