    Again... for the group... good pitching or bad hitting? Both sides....

    Astros have been swinging at strikes... and not necessarily pitchers pitches... but Yordan/Altuve unable to barrel anything up despite in their hot zones.

    He got two hits in 4 days... so he just bought himself until the all-star break... of 2025.

    When what you got to work with is Jose Abreu...

    Abreu is something like 4-23 since coming back up. That's better, but it's still absolutely awful. They can't keep running him out there and letting the season slip further and further away. Ownership and management are failing the team at this point.

    Joseph Espada is now 8-20 in games decided by 2 runs or fewer.

    I don’t disagree with you about Abreu. But this team has problems that far exceed 1 player.

    He's 2x the player than he first was at the beginning of the season batting around .200 in the last 14 days... Bagwell worked a miracle! </sarcasm>

    If I was Cabbage, Loperfido, Singleton, Dubon, or anyone else he is stealing playing time, I would be making more noise than Chas did with Dusty.

    Yeah, but replacing that one player can really help.

    If it's f*** us, then f*** you too.

    Offense could've done better, but still.

    100 games remain -- Astros will either triumph or continue a slow death.

    The luck meter has definitely been on the opponent's most of the season.

    So, good pitching? That's what we would say if the Astros did that...
