Oh good, now I can switch back and watch the Rockets for a while... What's that? Their offense can't score either now?

It's the fourth inning and we already need four runs to win.

It's a stretch to think we'll get four hits.

At least it wont be that big of a deal to switch to The Americans at 9

If Keuchel gets through the next inning scoreless... then it's a quality start. The problem isn't him tonight.

Watched two straight. Not even sure he was wanting to swing at anything

Hey Stassi, try lifting the bat off your shoulder buddy...

Does anyone remember the home vs road splits for our offense from the first half of last season? I know it was a striking difference (as it is again this year) because it would pop up on TV graphics all the time. This team is anemic on offense right now.

They're absolutely clueless at the plate.

If you aren't going to swing the bat, leave it in the rack. Go to the batter's box naked!

20 straight innings without a run?

Last run was in the 4th inning on Monday

I typically agree but WTF is he gonna do with 99 on the black? That's a unhittable pitch. We see it with our pitchers.

Nothing you can do on that one. It's the one down the middle that piss me off.

MMP offense

If Bregman goes hitless in his next 2 ABs, none of 4-9 hitters for the Astros will be above .250.

Right now, it is Springer, Altuve, Correa and then take 2 innings off basically.

20 innings without a run


But on a good note, it has been 12 games since the Astros made an error on defense

I think being worried is acceptable at this point. Marisnick and Gonzalez played over their heads last season and have come back down to earth. And Gattis is .220 hitter at best

Outstanding starting pitching. Elite level defense. But more strikeouts and less power on offense.

Name that Astro should have been "can you name the last Astro to cross home plate?"

I'm sure the offense will improve ... but it's worrisome.

The Yankees and Red Sox both went out and added an All star bat (really two MVP candidates) to their lineup. We did nothing to improve the offense over the offseason. Either we need to find another bat at the trade deadline... or call up Tucker

Did Springer actually make a plate appearance this inning? I went to answer the door and within seconds there was another out... wait...that was a quick AB for Correa also...

Severino is dealing. Hitters look lost and intimidated. Some silly swings and surprise taken pitches for strikes at the plate...

Keuchel wasn't great - especially giving up 2 in the top of the 1st, but the offense is ill.

I guess we know now it feels to face Justin Verlander now

when you have our offense, everyone we face feels like Verlander
