    Anyone find it interesting that Kramer is up to 108 pitches?

    Don't think I've seen this high of. Aourch count in quite some time.

    Bingo. They are in the bottom half in MLB. They do have problems scoring base runners. I’ve seen that a lot in 2025.

    That's true, I thought the three players we picked up at the deadline would help with the offense.

    Whatever game plan we have, doesn't seem to be working.
    Although Kramer has had our number.

    Why are they letting Kremer run his pitch count up over 110 pitches in a 7-0 game that means nothing for them in a lost season?

    The up and down games from this team, blowout - win - blowout - not sure that’s a sign of a team that’s able to make a run. You can lose for sure but the manner in the way these guys lose is kinda unreal.

    Yordan Alvarez had 3 Home Runs in 1 game against the Orioles at Baltimore.

    Missed opportunity to come back sooner.

    they have a little over 1 month to figure out consistencies.

    even if they stumbled into the postseason, this team aren't going very far unless someone goes Colby Rasmus against opposing pitchers.

    I said before the season that the 2025 Astros could not survive a serious injury to Yordan or Framber. I was really really surprised they were able to win as much as they did between Alvarez getting hurt and the trade deadline. This is one game, Astros are still in first place. But they need to get hot sometime in the next month and they desperately need a solid SP3 to emerge.

    Astros hitting with Runners In Scoring Position has to be Bottom 10 in the League.

    Bullpen Middle Relief is terrible

    Luis Garcia I think is that Pitcher, he just needs to get stronger.

    Cristian Javier struggling, he added weight. Spencer Arrighetti struggling with Walks. Lance McCullers role is unknown. They need to get going soon.

    Middle Relief needs to be replaced, especially Dubin.
