    Jokes aside… would anybody question Martin’s future managerial abilities? Or reject the Astros possibly hiring him? I’m also looking at somebody who could possibly help retain players or recruit other players.

    Bottom line is the defense has to get better. Bottom line is and I'm not a numbers guy, the defense has been bad for the last 10 days or so.

    No I dont want Martin in the future plans of the Stros org.

    Having him back would be like peeing on the seat and forgetting to flush the toilet. Then having your wife wake you up and let you know what a MF'er you are. Hypothetically. LOL

    Let me get this straight: a game in August against a team against whom we've already secured the tiebreaker when we're up 4.5 games in the division is a must win?

    I predicted that to be your response.

    Must win, or else what?

    He has no logical answer to that, he'll just b**** & moan like the p***y he is and chalk up his feminine behavior as "let us vent!!!"

    You're right. I'm sure the division leading, seven time straight ALCS appearing, two time World Series Champion Houston Astros Dynasty will feel shame for only beating the AL leading Baltimore Orioles team 4-3 in the season series.

    Oh that’s right. I remember your dumb ass. You are also a Dust mite. You’re one of the biggest idiots here. I know I made you look stupid a lot last year and here you are mouthing off about me to someone else. Talk about feminine behavior.

    Another painfull loss. Luckily Mariners still suck. About M's win yesterday, both Giants Rogers RP's look like complete st when they pitch. Another worlds worst submarine and another lefty who can't throw any strikes if tight game. Seen them in multiple teams and same everywhere. Still they have decent ERA and keep getting chances.

    Anyhow yesterday's loss fkd up my multi betslip (only 40ish multipl.total) so it hit hard many ways. I still think with these kinda lineups wins will come from pitching. We won't outslug or even out smallball very often with half of the lineup being minor league players and stars also banged up. With our number one horse and lead we can't keep finding way to lose. Against Orioles we have weaker lineup (right now) but adv. in pitching and BP. Proud of the team how they did reset yesterday's game but if we keep piling late losses the confidence and conviction first half of the games might start to dwindle if there's the losers fear "are we gonna fk it up anyway".

    I did't not appreciate Singleton's play but got mad all over again reading his comment post game:

    “There’s two options: run through or hopefully try to flip it,” he said. “I didn’t expect him to dive at first. It is what it is.”

    Prob. did't mean it like that but even give the chance of sounding "yeah whatever" is unacceptable after your number 1 horse gave his everything to win knowing we are not scoring many. Repeat after me!!! "I have to do better, I let the team down and feel terrible."

    You better have Machado like numbers behind you if playing with lazy cow eyes plays and comments downplaying it like it was just weak night with the bat.

    Just don't wanna open the door for M's. They play Rays home and Angels away next. Against Rays neither will score at Seattle and prob.bunch of 1-2 run wins with pitching for them and if we crumble they will also start to compare schedules more and realise it's far from over.
