    Astros are incapable of making a relay throw within 10 feet of home plate

    Morton is great first time through the order but after that he just crumbles. Thankfully he won't be asked to go more than 4 or 5 in the postseason.

    Doesn't matter how many runs we get.....pitching just can't seem to hold together. You hate to see the starter leave because Hinch is going with some obvious losers in relief who can't hold a lead...no matter how big it seems. Liriano and Clippard are laughable as well as Hoyt. Gregerson's not dependable ...we must have some additional pitching from somewhere...I know,.. Capt. Obvious here.

    What in the serious **** is this? Angels are like Harvey right now. Hanging around. Put these boys away.

    Wow. Very concerned with the division. I don't care what the lead is. Had a chance to sweep this team and will need a rally just to get 2.

    I'm really getting so sick of this ! This team just lost its cajones after the all star break

    You have a pitcher who is struggling badly and you don't take advantage of that and now he's near unhittable!

    Like I said, Devo is best after the starting pitcher. I blame this Marlins uniform.

    Lol, this is one of the biggest knee jerk reaction in clutch fans and that's hard to top.

    Seriously? One of the biggest knee jerk reactions? Uh no. Try reading this board more. Im consistently anti knee jerk. I didn't say we'd lose the division. I said I'm extremely concerned about it. And then I posted some facts.

    Division should be safe but there is serious concern with the pitching and sub .500 play since the break. Well, there's a HR as I type.

    If we are not going to win the division why are you concerned about the division then?

    All our pitchers should have the nickname 'Give it Up " this weekend. This is a replay of yesterday's game. We are 4th best in the DIVISION since the break.

    Huh?

    Extreme was a poor word but I can be concerned about the division with the way this team has played since the All-Star break. Can these problems be fixed? Absolutely. I would put money on us winning the division but it's not a stone cold lock.
