    Let's not forget Abreu gave up that HR that was fouled before base clearing double. Wouldn't Neris be better?!?!?!?!?

    Look, the reason Espada has a short leash with the fans is that he and the Astros have one of the worst one run differential records in baseball.

    It is kind of his fault putting in pinch hitters that lack the ceiling for clutch.

    I would trust Neris over Abreu.

    Pena's bat is very meh and he gets the longest rope because of his supposed Gold Glove yet he's been tops in the league in errors every season he's been up.

    We don't have anybody that can drive in a run when needed. Been that way all season long. Hell I blame Dana more than Espada

    Since July 30th:

    28 games
    24 errors

    That doesn't even count plays that should have been made that weren't counted as errors (e.g., Singleton vs Baltimore).

    I don't think I've ever witnessed an Astros team this poor defensively over an entire month of play.

    Also infuriating is that we absolutely know the Astros won’t score.
