0-2 on Correa before the double, Blanco pitches a strike that and then I stopped watching. 0-2 pitches a strike and Correa was damaging the balls on those 2 foul balls. No strategy, Correa is not going to walk in this series.
One more thing, coincidentally had dinner with one of the Coach’s while in Seattle. His date lives near my gf and I and knew some mutual people so we talked all night about non baseball stuff and of course the Astros. The pitchers absolutely miss Maldy. He may have taken his crappy bat with him but he also took his leadership.
Well... win tomorrow and offset today -- but today was supposed to help offset the Mariners series. Astros are 10 games behind in offsetting s***. The offense is utter garbage with runners on. We get zero luck regardless, but the opponent gets all of it whether it's ball-strike or bloops. Crane needs to get Jabreu's ass out of our face. Dude has some terrible mojo going . He enters Sugarland, Urquidy IL -- he re-enters Houston, Javier IL. Stupid a** losses vs SEA directly due to his defense immediately after he returns when there was already losses defensively before he left. Astros played its best without him and its worse with him. Get him the f*** off the team. Chas and Diaz continue their f*** up. Espada is a jacka**. .
1-4 since the return. Killing all of the momentum of getting back into the race. Abreu is bad juju for this team but they won’t cut him loose until it’s too late.
Crane is one of those cheap rich guys that can’t stand the thought of taking any big financial loss based off his own bad decision so he just doubles and triples down to avoid the truth staring him down point blank in the face. His ego is ginormous and pride is impenetrable.
Damn! We missed tying the record by one game, we had the scoring in one inning record right there and we gave it away yesterday but we return to form tonight!
No. The point is the team has a lack of leadership and fire. They don’t play hard for Espada. That NEVER an issue with Dusty.
I wouldn't be opposed. Astros seem to need conspicuous transgressions by upper and lower management. Some moves seem beyond obvious, but nothing happens. BTW.... if you didn't already know, Hader is currently warming.
These guys are pros, if they need a manager to fire them up and go out and perform then they need to go back to high school or college…..
This hasn't gotten enough attention, like it has somehow been lost in all of the other underachiever ****. His OPS is 200 points lower than it was a year ago. His average is 30 points lower and his power is basically gone. He has been a shell of the player he was a season ago. Very disappointing. WTF has happened? So many guys underachieving. It's a statistical anomaly that so many different players are all struggling at the exact same time. Dudes are hurt, others just can't seem to play anymore. Coincidence? I dunno. It's really weird. This has been a REALLY really strange season so far.
