Well that was dumb... 

[WBT 20561]

easy big fella

[Dutchrudder 11136]

That was also dumb. I'm sensing a theme here.

[tx 3 putt 76880]

6 batters / 10 pitches / 2 runs 

[Dutchrudder 11136]

414 feet, would have been a homerun in 29/30 parks, but not this one...

I want Craig's kid to do well so getting DFA'ed sucks, but I don't want the Dodgers to do well so...

Framber fucking sucks

They aren't going to do anything.

The more you play him the higher the chance he gets hurt, which is what we need so that he gets put on the list....preferably the 60 day

If the jackass gets hurt he will lie and play through it like he did last year with his back.

[Macklemore 2876]

This team is such a beating to watch this year.

not if he has a torn ACL

[Wishbone 4759]

IMO, and only my opinion: Couple of things. Framber seems mind fucked, and Bagwell has no business having any influential opinions with regard to to what it takes to win a championship. Those just seem to me to be obvious. Of course, it’s not that simple, but…

[Dutchrudder 11136]

YORDONG!

[runthebone 7967]

I jinxed Altuve.  Oh well.

Is Framber dedicating this game to JP France?

[Mitch Hedberg 2090]

Just turned it on and saw the score. Then come here for the scoop. Glad I haven’t been able to watch. Framber needs to unfuck himself long enough to trade his ass for good return. 
And I hate all HEB commercials. 

[Mitch Hedberg 2090]

I wish I had waited until after Abreu batted to start watching. What a fucking beating. All businesses do bad deals. Have bad losses. Bite the fucking bullet already. Fuck that guy

Frisco seems like a good place to leave him. Further the better.

[Honeysucklerose 987]

What’s up with Fubo today? I can’t get the game. Which is apparently a blessing.

[runthebone 7967]

Getaway day gives you more time to be in a bad mood after a loss

[Honeysucklerose 987]

The year of suck continues

[cabowabo 4484]

What's the Astros' record since Abreu came back? It is ridiculous that he hasn't been cut yet.

[perfectchaos007 6627]

Another series loss in the books.

Should be Fubro. Fuck You BRO.

[HtownHorn 14671]

The Astros took a 5-1 road trip and got mismanaged into a 3-3 split.

4-5 in games he has started.

[BrickTop 474]

[HtownHorn 14671]

Holy shit, Altuve has been awful in the last 38 games. 5 fucking walks, 1 IBB and 36 Ks. He needs to be removed from the lead-off spot when Tucker returns, but Espada doesn't have the balls to do it.

[tx 3 putt 76880]

90 wins is impossible, start dumping players and letting younger players get at bats. 2025 prep

Especially with Espada. You are literally losing games because of him.

Trade Bregman, Framber, and Pressly.

I wonder who is actually managing this team?

Correa with 5 hits today....something Altuve hasn't done

Sunday and Monday.

I actually root for that stat to stay intact for his entire career

At least we got a baserunner, unlike 12 years ago tomorrow out there

[Rockethorn1978 6072]

I’m starting to fear the front office and owner isn’t gonna be ahead of the game by trading scrubs for prospects so we don’t miss a beat and instead we take the titanic all the way to the bottom and sets us back 5 years.

the team has a little roll / mojo going when Abreu left and then bam

I’d shop framber, Pressley, Montero, Scott. Bring in some prospects. 

[runthebone 7967]

Before blowing up the team, I'd fucking get rid of Abreu.  He is a fucking cancer.  He probably is why the White Sox chemistry sucked ass.

This team is done.  They can play this out for 4 more weeks, but at this point they have to win 2/3 of their remaining games to even think about making the playoffs.  Not happening.  A half assed deadline where they trade Bregman and keep everybody else is worst case scenario.  They need to be proactive: Tucker, Framber, JV, and Bregman all need to be gone; getting good value for those 4 guys now probably gives Houston a top 5 farm to go into next season with payroll flexibility and a pending top 5 draft pick, which is a lot brighter outlook than what they have now.  Cabbage and Loperfido need extended run to see if they can play.  Dubin needs to be moved into high leverage relief.  Crane needs to start working his way thru the list to pick the next manager.

[Chuckie Finster 22694]

It’s almost unbelievable that our one big, obvious hole coming into the season was middle relief, we fell ass-backward into two dudes (Martinez and Scott) who are performing that role at near all-star levels, and we are STILL this bad.

Abreu has been nails since his last blown save. 18 appearences, 17.2 IP, 1.53 ERA, 2,57 FIP, 28 Ks. and 11 Holds.

[runthebone 7967]

It's just hard to believe how bad this team is.  Bregman can't even fucking field his position.

 

And fuck Abreu in the fucking stupid ass chin ponytail face.

Has it even crossed this guy’s mind to maybe cut that shit off?  We saw Pressly go clean shaven yesterday and he was lights out. This fucker thinks his beard pony tail is more important than the team. Fuck him. 

[UTexasFight 9430]

Let’s at least enjoy and recognize the pure display of power on that HR Yordan hit

changeup moving down and away. Takes it 405’ out to left center
