Royals the Seattle then az to end the season. At this point I expect us to lose every series and end the season 3-4 games back missing the playoffs. Then there’s that fantasy we make it and get hot and win it all. But I also fantasize I’ll get to bang a supermodel too so…..

It's September 20 and our manager is still tinkering with the line up.
It is what it is.
You can tinker on September 20 when you're up 10 games on the division.



I wonder if there's any sort of thought that these Astros just aren't good at home and so you'd rather have more road playoff games.

And Dusty has hamstrung himself because he can't pinch hit for Maldy without losing the DH.  We have played so much this season with intentional handicaps.

You can't change the position of player when they pinch hit?  I thought they would swap Diaz to C, staying in the 6 spot, but have Yordan become the DH in the 9 spot if he came in. Is that not an option?

That’s all fine except “more road playoff games” means having to play an extra 3 game series. No way they are purposely trying for that

It doesn't matter, this time ain't doing shit in the playoffs.  The starters have been subpar for months, the defense sucks and the hitting is streaky as fuck.  I look forward to never watching Dusty Baker stumblefuck his way through a game again.

So is Urquidy just broken now?

Some regression for the pitching staff was inevitable but I wonder if we're starting to miss Strommy a year on.

We need to fire Dusty as soon as the season is done and hire Strommy as manager. Bring back what made the Astros special. No more relying on idiot decision makers like Bagwell and Dusty. While we are at, Crane needs to apologize to Luhnow and make it right to bring the GOAT back home to Htown.

Nope.  The DH spot is reserved for the pitcher.  Once you move the DH to a position, you forfeit DH and pitchers have to hit for themselves.

While we're at it, let's bring back A.J., George, Correa, CFM, Yuli, and Marwin Gonzales because why the hell not?

Right so you can PH for Maldy with Yordan and move Diaz to catcher in the 6 spot. But the next time the 9 spot comes around, the pitcher has to hit or another pinch hitter.

I often chuckle at the thought of this board debating Chas vs George this year if he was still an on this team instead of Chas vs Dubon/Meyers.

Let em off the hook. Gotta score on fujinuts before 3rd batter

Baltimore throwing Fujinami is the Astros equivalent of Montero.
Only difference is their manager knows it and only allows him the min batters while ours lets Montero roll until inning is over
