We dont win this this is what, 3 games in a week (since last Sunday) that’s directly attributable to Pressly?

 

exit: no, 3 of the last 12 games.

i was thinking of the Seattle series which was 2 weeks ago

Astros record...

vs. teams with winning record: 8-21
vs. teams with losing records: 22-14

Glass half full, we’re 9-4 against the A’s and Angels

glass half empty:

it should be 10-3. And we’re only 13-9 against teams under .500 not named A’s and Angels.

and we’re halfway through with our games against the A’s and Angels.

Vintage April 2024 Astros there in the last three innings.

GIDPs to end innings with runner on 3rd, passed balls to advance a key runner to 3rd, Pressly sucking, Hader sucking, etc.

3 times in the last 12 games… after the stink of those previous 9 games shown.

 

he has to be demoted 


how long did it take before Dusty finally demoted Montero last year?

 

edit: July 9th, with an ERA around 7 is when Montero finally got moved out of the 8th inning slot.

dammit 

 

Abreu (Bryan) has got to be pissed.

He’s losing so much money in arbitration being stuck in the 7th with shit coming out in the 8th for 2 straight years.

If team dick-stepping average was an official stat, these guys would be setting league records.   Maybe not weighted dick-stepping average, but for sure in raw dick-stepping numbers.  
 

They’ve improved their starting pitching DSIP (dick-stepping per innings pitched) since the first month of the season, but the bullpen DSIP is still up there.  The BPDS (basepath dick-stepping) has always been a weakness, but is more apparent when the team also has high numbers in late-inning DPDS (double play dick-stepping), PODS (pop-up dick-stepping), and CSDS (clutch situation dick-stepping) .  FEDS (fielding error dick-stepping) is also exceptionally high this year compared to the past.  
 

Weighted dick-stepping numbers are calculated by how often the dick is stepped multiplied by how big the dick is.  Pressly’s PPPE (past performance penis enhancement) crossed with his extraordinary dick-stepping rate this season gives him the highest WDSA on the team.  Yordan’s WDSA is up there just because, well, you know… Yordong.  Bregs and Hader are also having career peaks in WDSA.  Surprisingly, Jose Abreu’s WDSA is actually quite low,  but that’s because this man has no dick.

It’s this right here.

you can compensate for the BPDS, but the  FEDS this year has been atrocious  magnifies everything else.

And you forgot the RMDS…rookie manager dick stepping …which just compounds everything else

Espada said something about playing a little more small ball this season, but he's just to damn fucking stupid to realize that runners on 1st and 2nd and no outs is a great place to do it, when you are trying to add runs in the later part of the game. The perfect player to do that with is fucking Trey Cabbage. It would also help to maybe run the squeeze play with Dubon with runners on 2nd and 3rd and 1 out instead of letting a limp dick baclup swing away.
