    Dezenzo had a good start of year... and Paredes is still possible.

    Good call, paredes could be a game changer to lengthen the lineup.

    Do you think Dezenzo will the Sept 1 call up for a position player?
    I'm wondering if Trammell comes back as well.

    Texas looking like they'll be only 5.5 games back.

    We still got 6 to go with them. Next weekend is a huge series.

    I’m not a big phish guy but there are certainly worse songs out there. I have to listen to k-pop demon hunter all damn day. It’s driving me insane.

    It is disappointing to watch this offense, and the lack of clutch hitting, but you can't have Alvarez hitting 2nd, he needs to be 4th, and Walker 5th.....we need the ON BASE guys up top and the RBI guys behind them.

    1. Pena - SS
    2. Altuve - 2B
    3. Correa - 3B
    4. Alvarez - LF
    5. Walker - 1B
    6. Paredas - DH
    7. Meyers - CF
    8. Smith - RF
    9. Diaz - C

    I don't like Alvarez at LF, but Paredas would need to DH I assume.......if Alvarez has to DH, you can bring in one of the guys below.

    PH - Carantini, Dubon, Sanchez, McCormick,

    We need more offensive firepower.

    They are without Semien, Seager and Eovaldi for the season. Of course there's no telling with our offense what will happen but you've got to think we should split at worst.

    Don't blame "spaghetti." Abreu gave it away, but the power shortage is a killer. No situational hitting. Actually, very little of any kind of hitting.

    Really we shouldn't have even scored 1 run.

    Infield hit that the fielder misplayed.

    At least 2 were infield hits that only scored one run.

    It wasn't long ago Astros were scoring with 2 outs and making comebacks. I think we have enough bats, they're just untimely and sucking right now.

    Yordan should be better than Paredes, right? Enter Correa too.

    I saw Cole play tonight. He went 2-4 with a homer

    What'd you think of him?
    I think they said it was his third homer in 4 games.

    Did Myers and DeZenzo play?

    And probably using him multiple innings if we go to extras. Joe looking great with tight games stats then but no healthy and rested arms for later serieses in season.
