I'm usually pretty positive but this team f***** sucks right now. We don't have anyone I'd trust in a game 1 in the post season right now and yet we are too cheap to trade for Verlander, who at the moment undoubtedly would be our best starter. This sucks.
This team has been a mediocre to bad team for a significant amount of time now. Injuries and playing a bunch of AAA guys has hurt but this team is just dead right now.
You know, after all the stress of the last few days, I wanted to kick back and watch some good Astros baseball. Instead, I'm seeing awful pitching, bats sitting on shoulders while watching strikes whiz by, baserunning errors, throwing errors, and bad decisions. At the very least play inspired for a city that needs some inspiration right now.
The team has had a nose dive toward the end of all of his years. They backed their way into the playoffs in 2015 and put a scare in the Royals but overall, I have no confidence in Hinch being a good leader/manager for this team.
