    The walls are closing in on this team. There just aren’t enough games left in the season to have a bad run of games like this, especially against one of your now main competitors.

    Thoroughly outclassed. Team looks uninspired as ****. Dusty didn’t get these guys ready to play, that’s for sure.

    The pitch he struck out JRod on was also over the plate… begging to be crushed.

    Moldy plays more games than not
    Framber and Brown both need skipped starts

    If this is what we're going to get out of Brown, Valdez, and Javier then this is going to be a lost season.

    If you can't get up for this series any better than this that's a major red flag.

    So here's what I think happened: After a year of James Click keeping Dusty under control, Dusty goes crying to Crane about how he can't work with Click. So Crane gives them both a 1 year deal, Click leaves, Dusty feels like he won and will do hit his way come hell or high water, and there's nobody now to check his stupid ass. And here you have what you have. Now, if Dana Brown steps in we can maybe salvage this year. Maybe.

    Seattle is a clearly better team at this point. With the rise of Rangers, this marks the demise of Astros reign of AL.

    Thank God with the new schedule format the Astros only play the Mariners 13 times instead of 19. First time being dominated by a divisional opponent since 2016 in a 162 game season.

    let's make it a game.

    whenever astros go up at bat, go get water or go to the restroom. then comeback and see how many outs there are already.

    Glad this one is on peacock.
