1 HR allowed wasn't enough for Dusty, here comes Raley for more

Oh yeah, great call Dusty. Let's pull the only bullpen arm we have that can actually strike someone out and put in a home run machine.

I know it seems worse because we are in the midst of it.

But can y'all recall a worst 2-3 week stretch of Astros baseball in recent memory? I'm blanking off the top of my head but legitimately asking

Dusty is so damn frustrating to watch manage

The offense just needs to come back. Someone other than Brantley needs to get a hit.

There was an absolutely putrid run in April of 2018...but without looking, I'm not sure it was this bad.

Edit - went back and looked...nope, not even close.

We had a really bad stretch in 2017 after the ASG but then we signed JV, went on a roll and the rest is history.

This is by far the worst offensive stretch I have ever seen from the Astros. One of the worst 8-9 game stretch I've ever seen in general, offensively speaking

Dusty was the absolute right guy last year - media darling that took the edge off all the 2017 talk. Signing him to an extension was a huge mistake. He should have been one and done.

It's less about Dusty for me. It's more about the poor offense. If our guys were hitting, we'd be winning games.

Last year was very frustrating but not this bad because we knew we were making the playoffs since we were always in 2nd and the angels were terrible

We suck right now and the Mariners/angels/As are all playing really well

Dusty is saving yordan to hit for diaz in the 9th when we have 2 on to put us ahead

Glad Brantley came to hit. Hopefully some of that can rub off on AB here.

Come on Brantley. You know with this offense hitting a single does NOTHING. You have to hit it out of here or you'll get stranded

Seriously - where are the line drives from AB? He's chopping everything into the ground.

I still blame Chas for his smack talk. We have sucked hind tit since then.

This is like if 2016 Tyler White were an entire team.

Absolute monster 1st week and then hit about .100 the rest of the way.

Right...Only thing contagious on this team is COVID

Can we somehow find a rule where Brantley can hit each spot in the order?

We are the double play kings of the MLB whenever we need it the least.

It's a long season, but this team looks so down mentally. There's no fire. They just need something to go right, someone to make a play. This weekend series against the Angels looms large.

This is the only major complaint I have with Dusty. This change of pitcher for 1 out and then rolling them out there the next inning seems to backfire quite a bit for us.

I hope it snows a ton tomorrow so I have an excuse not to watch this clown show.

They need to freaking be patient at the plate and work some counts. They're swinging at everything.

Absolutely. They are pressing horribly.
