    Cole needs to get better at focusing and bearing down when things out of his control don't go his way. Example 1: after the Diaz error against Tampa, example 2: tonight

    eta: he's got to do a better job of holding runners on too, that's 2 steals tonight where he's pretty much ignored the guy on 1B

    we're just playing inept baseball right now against a not very good team. down 3 runs feels insurmountable with the way we're hitting and that's a frustrating feeling.

    i just want to see some fight in this team... there seems to be none at the moment.

    Cole goes from being unhittable to ******** the bed fast.

    They've pretty much been painful to watch.

    Yep, feels like a 3-run deficit is pretty much insurmountable right now. Now watch them come back and win 7-4 or something (I can hope, can't I?)

    That ump in the Astros head and exacerbating the ongoing issues to start this year. Hinch and company trying to light a fire but so far we are inept

    I feel that way when we have a 1 run lead.

    Wow we’re playing so bad right now, it feels like we are the Rangers.

    Must upgrade catcher and add a starting pitcher at some point this season.

    This is one of the most egregious umpire performances I think I’ve seen. Pure ego.

    He just has to get it somewhere around the plate and he’ll give him a strike. This guy is brutal.
