Astros already 3.5 games behind the Rangers. For everyone saying "it's early"..... playing from behind is how we lost Gilbert last year. Next series begins tomorrow... Hader and Abreu already need two days rest each. We'll be lucky if the 5th starter makes it out of the 4th inning. Stros playing on the road, so at least there's that. Eta- Nope, home series.
And 9 straight home games Game #2 vs Twins in ALDS All 4 vs Rangers in ALCS All 4 vs Yankees to start 2024
Oakland A's will have a better record than the Stros after today, a team that is borderline to expansion team, or a AAA team. And the Spankees has our numbers now, god@!$#@ it. Bullpen killed us, but what killed us is not winning at home. This dates back to last season that is some voodoo crap going on......
Gilbert wasn't a big loss. It's time for the Astros to suck for a bit to retool anyway. Trade Bregman and Pressly this summer for talent and Tucker in the off season.

this franchise has been feasting on a shitty AL West for years and years to start the season. now that every teams have improved, no more feasting on the AL west. that plus they have to play everyone in the league now.
Ain’t how you start the season, it’s how you finish. Hopefully in October we are laughing at this 4 game sweep.
