    Inning from hell.

    I just badly want one hit from our team at this point.

    This season.... "Man, oh man"

    #milo


    True, but that doesn't mean surrender hit after hit, after hit....

    True, it lessens the embarrassment

    Him, Bregman and Reed should be here soon. Any combo of Gattis, Gomez, Tucker, Valbuena, Castro, and minor leaguers should be shipped for Lucroy.

    But they will do nothing and let the season get away from them. Try again next year.

    Reading body language, its like Springer has a chip on his shoulder about something. Couldnt guess what. He seems impatient and not completely in the game.

    Being a Houston fan is just an exercise in frustration. Can we ever just have a team that lives up to expectations? So far the astros look like they went to the houston rockets school of resemblink monkey crap

    Lol what the hell would Milwaukee want with a bunch of veterans when they are rebuilding

    If you want Lucroy you would have to be moving the guys on the list you started with

    Both sides have to like a trade

    I'd love to know how you think this game is on Fister? Oh wait, no I don't care at all. You have possibly the worst sports takes I've ever had to read.

    If the Astros are 4-7 or worse after eleven games, do they fire the manager? The expectations were pretty high coming into this season.

    He pitched his ass off, very encouraging.

    Now that Fiers/Feldman/Fister have looked good this week, I'm not sure who/what people are going to b!tch about.

    Re-read. I said any combo of those plus minor leaguers. Was just listing all of our dispensable major leaguers.

    Preston Tucker is included in that group and is the easiest sell-high I've ever seen.

    Sorry my friend, but Fister, throwing at 85 is not going to help the team at all.

    If the fastball does not get better he will have another 2015 season for the Astros.

    Feldman and Fiers pitched pretty good, Fister has not.

    Maybe he got his panties in a wad because the club was fielding offers for him this off season and he came in trying to prove he shouldn't be considered being traded by the club. I still stand by my overrated stance on him. He's been flat out trash so far this year.

    Fister has not looked good, his fastball is not fast at all, he is throwing at 85, not good.

    Now, Feldman and Fiers did pitch good, same with McHugh.

    Oh, and if I'm a RHP pitching to Tucker, all you have to do is elevate the fastball and he'll swing at it, and swing right though it.
