    It's big ask to have these rookie pitchers save us. Once again, I'm asking a sports team to not wait until the final minute of the deadline to get us help.
    We're being crushed.

    Yep the key word in that statement was "hope". As we all know hope is an immature emotion.

    Nice .gif.
    The dead horse I will continue to beat is that the Astros completly sitting out the starting pitching market for two straight years was indefensible.

    Bregman on pace for 75 RBIs.

    This is a player who has averaged 101.5 RBis his last 4 seasons that he played a full season.

    What kind of contract is that going to garner for a player on the wrong side of 30.

    The Astros may look back on this series with great regret.

    LOL, Altuve has 8 hits his last 7 games and zero RBIs. Every time runners are on base he pops up or strikes out it seems lately.

    Nah, a trade will be in the works soon once the sweep is in. It's been written.

    These things happen when your rotation is a M*A*S*H* unit.

    A guy like Bloss might be great pitching 2 innings from the bullpen twice/week -- but the Astros situation is too dire.
