Heavy on the heart to follow this team. Just few days ago I was on the hype train with the rest. Gotta just recalibrate and be happy that we will crawl to winning pretty bad AL West even with all the injuries and medical stuff right out of comedic drama series like Northern Exposure. They are friendly clueless family doctors and couple of young ones with degree from online courses and relatives in Astros org. The AL as whole is so even and tight that trade deadline might be more meaningful this year than usual allthough not so many sellers. I am now setting my mindset to we being 3rd div. winner and playing Tampa, Seattle or Boston in best of three crap shoot. We prob are not getting any real bats with any payroll and only garbage finds our hope. Something like clubhouse cancer drunk Verdugo might be biggest name we might get. All 4 Seattle's righties (Kirby, Gilbert, Castillo, Woo) can zero us, Boston's young bats starting to rake and they have promised to use Devers money to add, and I don't like how we measure against Tampa righties either. Team like Brewers (fortunately in NL) might be nightmare for us. Pitch n defend well and take team AB's all day while stealing bases also. Even Texas coming up, I will skip some games and try to be happy where we are. They overachieved so long that coming down to their actual level feels terrible to watch. Hopefully Walker did't leave the bat to LA I guess and gives us some jolt .
Even with the sweep, we have the 3rd best record in baseball. Maybe we can limp into the ASB winning a series against TX. Then we should start getting guys back, one by one.
No one can doubt that the man absolutely loves baseball - respect the passion and effort from Dallas.
FU for making me click off the ignore list eta fyi: LA is 9-10 in his starts, Stros are 13-5 in Framber's
