forgot how stupid kimbrel looks on the mound
Why'd we take Giles instead of him?
We haven't swung at a single pitch yet in the 9th....
Bregman on deck. Really want Marwin's lefty bat next

I'm not sure Marwin is completely right with his hand.
Beltran just getting owned
Swing at the big hook stare at the flat one.
I'm not saying I could hit kimbrel, I'd look like an idiot against the BP coach these days, but it can't be fun to come off the bench and see this guy
Just an awful game.
Really feel like that one got away.
Crappy performance tonight from our offense. Clutch hitting wasn't there, baserunning was horrible
Yep. We should've really touched that starter up.
This is completely on the offense.
I can't ask Fiers and a worn out BP to not give up any runs. I can ask for this offense to put up more than 1.

This team honestly is dog**** compared to what we saw 3 weeks ago. No two ways around it.
The sad part is that it's mostly the offense and not the pitching that's been so terrible. Locked in a losing homestand with tonight's loss...

silver lining, Fiers went deep in the game and got a few bullpen arms some more rest
Man. We were worried our pitching was going to suck during this time. I've been pleasantly surprised with our makeshift staring rotation. Our offense has **** the bed (with the exception of the last game against the Rangers).
Running the bases like a six year old will do that. Fun times. Now we have to find a way to win during two horrendous pitching matchups.mathguy86 said:

It's par for the course for every homestand this season. The offense completely shuts down at home, and the pitching is usually great. Incredibly frustrating. No home field advantage at all.
Other than Wednesday night and a few other outliers this offense is pathetic at MMP
On a positive note, still the best team in baseball. Our two SP seem to be back on track to get back in the rotation. And I'll be in 113 Sunday.
Frustrating game...
Watching this team destroy their opponent on the road then come to MMP and play like dog **** is infuriating.
But it was great to meet Irish Pete and CSWendt. Hope to see more of you guys in the future. And the rest of you, let me know when you're around for a game. I rarely miss a home game.
When are we going to stop using the "still the best team in baseball" excuse for this team?JABQ04 said:

The Astros (right now) are not even one of the top 15 teams in baseball.

Hell no. Not even close right now. They have lost seven of the last ten.

It's like some of you have never watched baseball before. It's a game with extremely high variance. Chill.

Enjoyed it!
You guys are right. This will probably continue another 3+ months.

Great to meet some fellow TOFA patrons.
Snap shot of the Cubs June/July wins/losses last year...
Lots of L's... including a 5-15 stretch
We can come out of this funk and still kick ass

It's time for Beltran and Gattis to not hit in the 4/5 spots anymore.
and they didn't have any injuries to their rotation
I'm as bad as the next guy, but Jesus Christ. First rough patch of the season and some of y'all need your shoelaces and shaving razors taken away. Our rotation is not what we thought due to injuries. Our offense is slumping. Still right around 100 games to play. I'm well aware of our current issues, but if you expected to go .700 win percentage until the end then I admire your optimism. Our team has issues, mainly dumb baserunning. We had opportunities last night to capitalize and we made the mistakes, the Red Sox didn't. This team has the best shot at a WS run of basically any Astros team to take the field since 2005. Let's chill and enjoy baseball.
Way too much melting considering we beat ourselves with bad baserunning mistakes and had some bad luck on Aoki's hit.
Especially when we're down 4/5 of our presumptive SPs for more than a month this year so far. We're still 11 games ahead of the Rangers.
