    We all should have known Javier was snake oil for most of this game. He’s toast and done and the Stros are stuck with him for a few more years.

    Our best lineup isn’t out there. It’s no surprise that we lose these games.

    3 runs given up ain't even bad.

    offense can't even score their avg of 4-5 runs.

    Look, the Astros may go 2-15 at home to close out the season, but we will all thank Dusty later, ok?

    Getting swept by their call ups better sweep the Rangers.

    Astros have won every game this series that Chas was treated like a starter.

    They were always “stuck” with him without the extension… thanks to arbitration.

    Would have already bet Urquidy was in by now.

    You can put your best lineup out there but it can’t include Javier.

    This team has way too many holes to compete for a championship

    When you sit two +.800 OPS hitters (top 25 hitters in the American League) and you lose a game by 1 run or 2 runs -- then the decision to sit those players is costly. This is how Dusty is mismanaging. The margin of victory in MLB is so slim... that even small decision-making errors, repeated consistently over time, can cost the team 5-6 wins... in a division that probably will come down to the last 3 games of the season. Bottom line: Dusty's incompetence matters.

    More pathetic offense. Horrible. Not remotely a championship team unfortunately.

    It’s extra hard when the manager doesn't try to win

    Yankees BP hasn’t given up a run in 9 innings in this series. I’ll be surprised if they score another run.
