    The Astros must be really frustrated with this situation, they might be tired of losing...

    If you take a macro-baseball view of things, the Astros are bringing joy to millions of baseball fans this year, just not the ones that matter.

    It took the fall of the Astros to get the Texans and Rockets back into relevancy.

    Opponent ONCE AGAIN gets damn near every break.

    Record setting injuries
    Worst play by a first baseman ever
    Sh***y play
    Sh***y luck
    Questionable manager

    One of the most unpredictably worst seasons in sports history

    Much like we had to sacrifice Watson's ACL for the first WS title. This means we're winning the Super Bowl, right @Hey Now! ?

    This team is so weak man. Even Espada getting thrown out of the game was weak. Needed to be arguing sooner for the bad calls with the umps. It's hard to have respect for this team with what they have shown so far.

    Singleton’s plate discipline and pitch recognition seem to be extremely good, but his ability to barrel and elevate the ball has been ****ing pitiful and will likely end his career.

    This is some absolutely brutal suckage.

    When cabbage hits the ball, he hits it hard. The key is the when part
