    He might need a rest day. Can’t have him get a flexor strain.

    We also go station to station.

    We also run ourselves out of innings.

    We also have the worst third base coach in the history of the game.

    We've got other factors affecting our run output. But you're right there is no big 3 run HRs in our arsenal for the most part. No bases clearing doubles. So forth and so on.

    Astros players need a come to Jesus moment and quickly.

    14-21 in the last 35 playing .400 baseball? Yeah time for a players only meeting.

    They can't even manage their options correctly, a bunch of guys aren't eligible to come back up yet unless someone goes onto the IL.

    What about stolen bases allowed? It’s like little league baseball. They rarely throw out a baserunner stealing.

    It’s “fist fight in the dugout” time imo. Team needs a beef to reset.

    If this isn’t rock bottom idk what is.

    This is as ugly a stretch as I can recall.

    Maybe @Nook can shed some light on it, and I may be wrong - sure feels like they’ve quit.

    It's a major problem when you have Chas having to do mop up duty several times in a week span. The organization, the staff, everyone needs to be ashamed.

    Whats a players meeting going to do?

    That going to make the pitching stop getting shelled and get the hitters doing something more than isolated singles?

    Its a complete disaster at every aspect of the game.. I guess the fielding hasn’t been that bad.

    They have. Someone may need to be fired.
