    Did whatever Tucker have spread throughout the rest of the clubhouse? How do they come out so uninspired?

    What a fitting end to a joke of a game. Huge choke job by the offense today. Need to win the next two to save face.

    It’s every third game or so that this happens. May be time for new blood next season.

    Our bottom five, 0-15, not that the top lit it up but just getting a little something from the bottom five you probably plate a couple, hilarious but Singleton was close to getting more ABs then Chas, I just can’t get over that

    Also, don’t know if Peña is lazy or what. He’s obviously always in his head.

    The top needs to deliver. Period.

    Diaz had shown some patience in earlier at bats but perhaps too amped up there. That was a few inches off the plate. He's probably feeling like he's got to do something spectacular to get Dusty to play him everyday.

    At this point the way the Astros have looked against the Mariners, I'm more concerned about them than the Rangers. Yuck.

    This game was set up to lose the moment the lineup was announced. Made worst by Tucker being sick.

    well that’s obvious but you can’t have five auto outs either, having Chas behind Singleton boggles the mind.

    I’m getting so tired of these games where they just forget how to hit. It’s always some no name bumb pitcher that owns them. Just tired of the uninspired baseball they play at times.

    I don't care for him as a person anymore, after that tweet last winter, and his pissy interviews.

    Tucker being Tucker lately probably wins the game getting four ABs

    the lineup was dumb and when Tucker went out it got worse. Crane and Brown need to hand Dusty the following lineup and tell him this is what it will look like until the end of the year with a FEW substitutions allowed every 10 games or so.
    Altuve
    Bregman
    Tucker (3 or 4 dont care)
    Alvarez (3 or 4 don't care)
    Chas
    Diaz
    Brantley (hopefully) or Abreu
    Pena
    Myers or Singleton when Alvarez in LF
