    Oh wow.
    We won a first game of a series.
    Now sweep teams in series, otherwise— mediocrity reigns HARD with this ballclub.
    2 out of 3 or 3 out of 3 should be a floor, expectation, standard…
    Sign coaches & hitting coaches and pitching coach still is REGRESSING from the WS/ALCS runs… clean house. Team could still be better than the podunk product it barely sells.
    JimCrane… you’ve got idiot tendencies.
    JoeEspada: just, stop— you dont know how to bring fire.
    D-Brown… youre not gonna get away with this nickel & dime BS for long… show up & show out.
    Fck the MLB for *REQUIRING* JC to push the best GM/‘Mgr “regime” out the door when they were trailblazers of this franchise. Garner/Hunsicker approached that level of singularity.

    W or L, this team, franchise, organization is a shell of what it once was

    Stupid reason but I'm pretty sure my 1st pack of cards had Biggio and Bagwell. Since Astros were the only pair, I decided to like them.

    It's been fun watching Abreu and Hunter grow up into badasses this past few years

    Mariners loaded bases with 0 outs and didn't score a single run. Oof

    Abreu isnt giving up too many runs but his WHIP is almost shaky

    The “floor, expectation, standard” is somewhere between a 108 and 162 win team? Ok then. Maybe wait to post this drivel after a loss?

    We call this pulling a prime Ryan Pressly

    Kidding, Abreu is better right now than Pressly ever was.

    Abreu is a beast and I'm happy he is an Astro, but I think maybe you forgot how great Pressly was for from 2018-2022.

    211 IP
    11.9 K/9
    2.39 ERA
    2.28 FIP
    0.929 WHIP

    and even better in the post season.

    You beat me to it, this exactly and he’s been better than he is right now. 2022 reg and in post season he was unhittable.
