    Now would be a good time for a Moldy stint on the IL.

    Dusty's stupid lineups constantly changing, with no rhyme or reason is horrible. That being said, you are right. Our pitchers are inconsistent, and so are our big money players. They just blow it too often at the plate with guys on base, and can't even muster up enough hits to beat the worst teams in the league. It's been so frustrating watching them this past month. They don't want to win bad enough for the home crowd so maybe they should get an empty stadium for a night.

    Sorry jayfree my response got embed in your comment. I like gambling …so

    I would like to bet you that the astros make the post season with Dusty as manager. I’m willing to bet a lot but let’s just say $100…that’s enough to matter and affordable for anyone.

    Caltex is short for California and Texas, the two states I was raised in.

    It’s unreal how Astros starting pitching consistently gives up a crooked number in the first inning seemingly every game, especially at home. But thank God Maldy is back there to keep the runs down, throw out base runners and keep the ball in front of him. Oh wait…

    One of the most disappointing games of the season.

    Some cringeworthy player quotes tonight regarding the state of the team. They’re as lost as the fanbase is.

    Oh I get it, apologies, no offense.

    But can you get a Pepsi? Just one Pepsi?

    Breaking news: Framber was *not* upset about Maldy's passed ball and the Royals got lucky yesterday and in previous games vs Houston too.

    I'm actually past the point of being scared or worried that they won't make the playoffs. I'm just mad. And it they don't make it, I think it will be well-deserved and I might actually be a little relieved. Crane and management need a wakeup call, and missing out on the postseason would be a very good one.

    If they keep Duster after this year, then the golden era of astros beisbol is over.
