[tx 3 putt 78730]

That sucked donkey boner

[WBT 20993]

7 hits to fucking 2

[Mo Horn 8939]

Nothing like getting shut out by the worst team in mlb

[Gut Wagon 8219]

It's pretty hard to lose to a cellar dweller when you hold them to two hits, but we're just the kind of team to do it.

It's OK because we're also bad.

[Scraps 13809]

we’ll make a qualifying offer for the pick, but I’d move him if you can

our system needs a talent infusion 

[Beau Vine 55874]

My favorite part was at 1:50, when he credited Maldonado with giving hitting advice.

[David Dennison 19566]

What a friggin' mess.

[Honeysucklerose 1006]

My GOD can we get Lunhow back here stat??

[UTEX_ME 4289]

[perfectchaos007 6780]

Dana is so fucking stubborn.

[David Dennison 19566]

Yeah. Dana.

What stupid shit is he saying now?

[hornmpa96 2669]

Move every asset you can and build for the future.

This team isn’t going anywhere.

[tx 3 putt 78730]

Dana is catching the tail end of this mess. Last year’s draft is showing something, we need a great 2024 draft. He’s moving zero players until crane gives him the green light. IMO, crane and Bagwell are still thinking we can catch the M’s, just need a 10 game win streak and sweep the M’s !!!!

I’d prefer we don’t rush back Garcia and LMJ. Retool for a 2025 run. Injuries sunk the season. 9 fucking pitchers on the injured list

Nothing new tonight, but over the past several weeks he has insisted this team is on the right track, they'll turn it around, no need to panic, and "there is no scenario where the Astros will be sellers at the trade deadline". 

There's optimism and stubbornness, and Dana is the latter.

What should the GM be saying instead?  “Yeah, we are totally fucked.  We have sucked shit through a straw all year and I don’t expect it to stop. I’ve got all our good players on the trade block and honestly we are looking at the draft lottery odds more than we are looking at playoff odds.  The trade deadline and 2025 can’t get here fast enough.”

[HtownHorn 15234]

Dana is saying what he is allowed or told to say. This shit isn't difficult, Dana is GM in title only when it comes to the make up of the actual 26 man roster, those decisions are being made by Crane and his HOF crew. Dana is here to rebuild the minor leagues through the draft, something he is really good at doing. We are starting to see the fruits of his 1st draft.

Dana and Espada were hired because they agreed to let Crane meddle in everything.

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

Worst loss of the season

(so far)

Could always be worse!

[Hornsbay22 485]

I hate this team, trade everyone except Altuve Alvarez, and extend Tucker.  Burn the mother fucker down.

[drewlaws 130]

Honest question. Do yall trust this organization to rebuild? Is Dana Brown the guy and if so, can he do it without Crane/Bagwell meddling?

its going to be a ‘reload’ for 2025, not a rebuild. The core is in place. Crane isn’t giving up on a 2025 run

Don't they already have Brice Matthews playing some 3B like Bergman did?  

[tx 3 putt 78730]

 

[tx 3 putt 78730]

 

im calling it now, Altuve isn’t a first ballot HoF. East and West coast voters are going to ghost him. 

[Scraps 13809]

Way to go out on a limb.

It will probably take 5+ years for him to get in

[Chuckie Finster 23094]

I honestly won't even be surprised if he gets left out if he doesn't reach 3,000.

[Scraps 13809]

Still no Yordan.

Bunch of fucking losers man 

 

 

[tx 3 putt 78730]

[Scraps 13809]

lulz 

 

 

[Dutchrudder 11246]

Don't worry guys, help is on the way!

 

 

[Scraps 13809]

Lance needs to quit throwing to no one and just be activated because the longer he fucks around in BP sessions and rehab stints the quicker he is gonna get hurt again.  We need to milk him for his 20 innings now.
