    Lol. It also appears Dusty feels this team has played in too many postseason games in recent years and it's time for them to take a break from the postseason this year.

    My favorite is that Baker didn’t pull France when it was 3-0 - he had to make sure the game was in winnable before pulling France - good job Dusty.

    Truly another pathetic performance by the Astros.

    At what point do we look at our pitching coaches? Every starter aside from the guy we just reacquired is melting down.

    Going back to back doesn't look likely at this point.

    I hope something changes somehow these last 30 something games.

    Seems to me the starters throw too many fastballs in the middle of the strike zone. Like…hit it if you can and too often they do.

    Yesterday's game was the one to take at all costs. Instead they pinch hit with Dubon and Julks. The 4 game series was designed for a tie.

    Don’t understand why Yordan didn’t pinch hit? He made a miraculous recovery in 15 hours.

    This one really hurts.

    Bielak gets used today instead of a skipping a Framber-Javier-Brown start... smh

    There's little hope in sight for any main starter (sans JV) being fresh again this season.

    A series split against the Red Sox after getting swept, all at home...is a complete failure. Now 3rd in the AL West trailing both the Mariners and Rangers.......
