    Astros went from banging on trash cans to being a dumpster fire. I wonder what's next in its evolution.

    Not sure if this is reason for optimism or reason for negativism, but we are 1-9 in one-run games this year.

    With 8 blown saves... imagine if we kept Neris and Stanek instead...

    I honestly think we bond on the road trip and sweep the Jankees.

    It's a marathon not a sprint.

    6 games against 2 division leaders goes 3-3. It's what I expected.

    Sucks how it happened but if you look at the big picture, nothing about this week indicates the sky is falling.

    Have 3 vs Yankees and 3 vs Tigers. Need to go at least 3-3 hopefully better.

    Then 10 of 13 vs A's and Angels if they don't win at least 7 of those 10 games then worry.

    It has been the last 8 years. Maybe Marvel bought the rights.

    It's not the losses... it's the complete inability to win 1 run games.

    It's pretty well accepted that 90% of 1 run games are luck.

    They may be 1-9 now and end up 9-1 over the next 10 ( but more likely 6-4)
