    8 runs scored over 3 games tells a different story.

    the not hitting at home is also not new and not limited to the first 3 games of this season so I don’t see how that is getting downplayed because SMALL SAMPLE SIZE

    It is 3 games…. the response to a three game series in March is absurd.

    The Astros did not have a bad off season either. They added the best relief pitcher in baseball.

    I am not talking about your posts (at least I remember your posts being an example - but yeah there is a lot of toxicity after 3 games for a team that has been the best in baseball over the last 8-9 years.

    Anyone making definitive opinions after 27 innings in March doesn’t know or understand baseball.

    Still dont understand that mindset that we can just go get a reliever at the deadline if needed....might not be needed if we do t ha e enough middle relief to be in contention. The one area of glaring need has turned a 3-0 start into an 0-3 start.

    As long as that definitive opinion is about the 3 games played so far, and only that, then they are valid IMO.

    Perhaps going forward, that signing will show merit. But to this point, Hader hasn't helped us.
    I am inclined to think spending that money on middle relief would have.

    Why pull France now? I don’t understand his moves. I think I’m fast getting to n this bandwagon.

    I thought we would have less of these lineup changes for every game but I guess that’s the norm now

    How bad does it need to get before we would make a change? I know this is just one series against a good team.

    Keep moving the goalposts. You are a joke. You wanted Espada, now you got him. So, if the Astros start winning, make sure you do claim him again.
