    Who would have thought that Hader, Pressly and Abreu would end the season with a combined ERA over 3.50.

    Please no, if that happens our post season chances go down considerably. What is worrisome, is that he has preexisting knee problems.

    most of the time it’s the fault of our hitters.

    Espada not sounding too confident concerning Yordan

    Astros are cooked without Yordan.

    4 runs on top of the ninth was not something you'd expect.

    just like how no one thought kaleb ort was going to give up back-to-back-to-back homerun against the fathers.

    Never liked Yordan sliding for anything. Big Papi doesn't slide. Doesn't slide, take the out,

    Okay so, postgame said Arrighetti had some leg cramps in the 6th inning.

    Still doesn't make sense to pitch Neris 6x in 9 days.

    Right knee contusion was basically my diagnosis from the sidelines (which should trump all)

    Well, the Texans were a complete embarrassment today, at least the Astros.......

    Nevermind.

    With an expanded September roster, this shouldn't happen.

    We didn’t have Yordan for a lot of that game and our bullpen had a bad night. I think even some of the best teams lose games like this. Angels got hot at the right moment.

    Astros playoff magic numbers:

    2 Seattle
    3 Kansas City
    3 Detroit
    3 Minnesota

    We own tiebreakers over Kansas City and Detroit only.

    Given a meltdown by getting swept by Seattle and then going on to lose the division, that would mean we went 1-2 vs Cleveland and Seattle won out (as an example).

    That would mean 2 of the 3 teams between Kansas City, Detroit and Minnesota going 5-1 to knock us completely out of the playoffs. Losing out all 6 games means that record would have to be 4-2.

    So my guess is the Astros have roughly a 96-98% chance of making the playoffs right now.
