I think we’re a good team at home when healthy. But without Altuve and Correa and a slumping Springer and Gattis and a god awful Davis, it’s hard to expect much on offense.
Yeah, yeah you got it, he is awfully awful, this sucks, Hinch sucks, kuechel sucks, Giles sucks, davis sucks, hell even Crane sucks.
Easy fly ball by Choo to the CF. CF not in CF. eta: I'll say this, if you're going to shift as much as the Stros do, your pitchers should sure as hell pitch to it. You don't throw heat outside if you're playing to pull, you don't throw down and in to a LHB if you're playing him the other way, etc...
I was simply pointing out that Davis hasn’t been good at all. I don’t think that qualifies as being overly negative.
Yikes! I knew the Rangers sucked but they have taken it to a new level in July. Astros looking like they need a shot in the arm like Verlander was for them last year. Hopefully Luhnow is not finished.
If we won every game, it wouldn't be fun. Need some adversary in a long season. What sucks is rock star julia didn't interview the power couple with the matching jerseys. "world" and "champs" so far the highlight of the game.
Gallardo is 16-5 against Houston in his career. He has a 3.08 ERA at MMP. How did they ever average 3 ERs a game and how did he ever lose 5 times?
The Astros either need to Callup Yordan Alvarez or Get a trade done. Catcher, OF, 1B, Bat is needed. The lineup needs Power. A Closer is a Huge Need.
So all they need is 4 new players: maybe maybe no call up a 2nd rookie OFer, trade for another OF/1B guy, trade for another catcher, PLUS get bullpen help at the trading deadline?
