    I can’t stand Keuchel these days.

    Mouth has become bigger than his game.

    No Astros are losing because the A’s turned their order over and Dallas isn’t fooling anyone.

    Bagwell joins Kalas and Blum in the booth tomorrow.

    So many good memories of Jeff while growing up -- anticipating every AB.

    Stros playing crappy against decent-good teams again.

    We have been mostly healthy this season and are completely healthy right now.

    Tonight the Astros ran into a very good starter so not shocking to lose. Having said that, there is something off about the 2018 Astros so far. They are good but not spectacular so far. Part of it is they only have 7 hitters.

    Semien sums of the A's of the past 5 or so years not doesn't do anything good doesn't do anything bad. Good enough to not be terrible bad enough not to make the playoffs. Kinda amazing actually

    Hinch putting Smith in there was the white flag of surrendering the game pretty much.

    Yea. Marwin isn’t Marwin of 2017. Jake of last year was a fluke Someone forgot Gattis hit better when he was catching last year. Jose is FAR from 2017 Jose we are not coming up with the big hits and we are flushing some good pitching performances down the drain. Unfortunately the starters MIGHT be coming back down to earth as Morton and Keuchal both wet the bed.

    Alll that said we were still a half game up coming in to tonight. Personally I think we need to take the next 2 and anything less than a split with the Yankees will have me concerned.
