1.5 hrs in and we're not even midway through the 3rd.

Hey...at least it’s a balmy spring night. Views of the northern lights from the club level.

Pretty sure every poster here knows we’re not resigning him

But didn't you appreciate the confirmation that I felt the same way?

If asked which former Astro to sub in on this roster, i might now say give me 1980-ish Joe Niekro in place of DK. Between Cole and Morton, he’d drive batters totally mad. Would be hilarious to watch. 

[thetruth 149]

George is absolutely fucking lost up there. 

[Gut Wagon 8073]

We can have a couple guys struggling at once. No biggie. But not seven. 

[Dr. Teeth 5844]

Rally time

[Gut Wagon 8073]

Good grief. 

[Dr. Teeth 5844]

Our baserunning issues are back. 

[Honeysucklerose 990]

Mother frick. Correa

[runthebone 7982]

Yet another GIDP, wow.  

 

Un-Biggio like

[Gut Wagon 8073]

Gonna have to change “CC” to “DP.” He’s racking them up. 

[HtownHorn 14683]

McHugh throwing some gas tonight. He like Peacock may be a better pitcher coming out of the pen.

[Dr. Teeth 5844]

Is that Randy Johnson?

[Mez2 4023]

This is so frustrating. 

[Jimbaround 975]

That was dirty.

[Tailleur17 361]

What a dump

 

 

Oops that was meant for aggy thread.

[Tim Beck 20]

 

Slump buster

[Ldogg53 514]

This is gross at this point.

[UTexasFight 9450]

We need to get through tomorrow with at least one more win and get home to our slumpbuster, the Texas Rangers, this weekend

[Honeysucklerose 990]

At least no DP for CC

[thetruth 149]

Come on Marwin. Make it happen. 

[Honeysucklerose 990]

This is truly pathetic

[thetruth 149]

Or don't. Whichever. 

[Dr. Teeth 5844]

Was that a bunt?

[DoobieWah 1440]

It was a homerun.

For ants.

[Ldogg53 514]

Altuve still doesn’t have a HR this season.

[Dr. Teeth 5844]

Gotta respect Springer for laying out for that in this cold. Maybe it will get him going. 

[UTexasFight 9450]

Well he’s due up 4th

Would be nice if he busted out of this funk with a 3 run shot

 

 

Edit: or a grand slam

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

It'll be nice to get Yuli back. We need a spark.

[DoobieWah 1440]

Chit!~

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

Fuck

[UTexasFight 9450]

Rodney sucks
Go ahead and match Smith’s two walks please and we win

[Mez2 4023]

Do you guys think we'll ever score more than 6 runs in a game this year?

Our offense is teh suck.

[Scraps 13561]

Wtf is McCann doing lol

[Honeysucklerose 990]

Hey numb nuts. Swing

My bad. About a week ago I was wondering if we might score 1000 runs this year. At this rate, we’ll do well to reach 250. Something’s gotta give soon.  

[Honeysucklerose 990]

This is really perplexing. How can everyone just suck now

[DoobieWah 1440]

9 and 3

Afternoon game tomorrow.

The easy answer is always “pitching.” But it seems to be more than that. We’re not facing our starters every day. 

[UTexasFight 9450]

Keep the series winning streak going tomorrow.
Get home and get warm

[Guest E. Orr]

On pace now to only win 121 games.

[UTexasFight 9450]

On pace now to only win 121 games.

That unfortunately will be 40 games worse than the Red Sox

[Dr. Teeth 5844]

So who are the top players in the draft?

YOLO for Lodolo?

Not win for Witt?

[HoustonFrog 368]

Man what a disaster. Need yuli to spark

McHugh looked good throwing 92-93. 

[Planet Houston 4930]

[UTexasFight 9450]

We could use some of this tomorrow.
That game was also a Wednesday afternoon game that started at 12:10pm:

[Rimbo 25936]

Losing sucks

[UTexasFight 9450]

15 ERs given up by the starters thru 12 games...
Or a 1.93 ERA
That’s with Keuchel giving up 7 of those 15. Drop him and the rest of the starters have a combined 1.31 ERA.
Obviously that pace won’t continue but neither will the offense averaging
2 rpg like they have the last 6 games.

We’ll score double digits tomorrow
