    This is ground control to Milo Ham
    Please put in a word to God
    The Astros are not hitting very well
    And they're falling in the standings
    Here I am sitting in my chair
    And there's nothing I can do

    Other teams must get excited when they're down 1 run or two or up 1 run going into the late innings against the Astros...This is a bad pattern that needs breaking

    Gattis really wanted to blast one out of here (like he always tries to do).

    Stop swinging for homerun and big plays! Go for solid hits!

    Hinch man. Make a move, have 10 dudes on your bench who hit RHPs better than Gattis.

    I wish I could say I've never seen a choke job like the Astros are putting on before...but growing up a Houston sports fan (Oilers, Phi Slamma Jamma, etc) I've had my heart ripped out far too many times.

    It makes you wonder how the team has done as well as they have this season.

    They can't buy a win right now.

    I'll be thoroughly disappointed if Gattis, Valbuena, Carter, Rasmus and Conger are all still on the team next year.

    Amazing what happens when you show plate discipline. You get on base!

    This team is too much like the 2012 Rockets.

    We had a 6 game road trip near the end of the season and could have secured a playoff spot if we just one a couple of those games. I think we lost all 6 games on the road and settled for 9th place in the West.
