    Houston teams in general, with a couple exceptions, look great when their underdogs and other teams are looking the other way (not taking us seriously).

    But when they realize we are up and coming and they turn around and stare us down, we put our tail between our legs and whimper off.

    This is why it's time for Hinch to go. This team is not as talented as a lot of people thought but far too many times the base runners have ADD/ADHD on the bases and lose all types of focus. Just too damn careless which is a result of bad coaching.

    The entire team is just snake bit. I think their entire mindset is just *****ed.

    Well if they are too stupid to have better focus out there on the bases he as the manager has the power to bench some asses and they'll get better at running the bases real quick I'm thinking.

    So, I take it they will go for six innings to make it official and then just call the game due to rain?

    I like the way Castro has been swinging the bat over the past couple of weeks.

    I would love to see Correa hit a home run like he did last year in Fenway
