Missed the entire game, thankfully so. Is Maldy the back end of our pen now?
Lemme guess, another team meeting tonight?

The lack of any real sense of urgency is noticeable across the board.
Maybe they can flip the switch at some point, feels doubtful.
Hey it's tough to repeat in this league for a reason or three.
Off-season will provide some needed rest and recovery and a managerial change, also perhaps some roster tweaks.
Not writing them off but man this just feels different, they look done
Well said. Too many days where you've had guys like Julks, Kessinger…Singleton….Bielak…etc. for this to have been close to a contender season. Injuries aside (and the Abreu disaster) the wheels are going to come off when the starters have plus 3 era and you've got starters hitting under .200. This season just hit different (no pun intended)

Dusty Baker said he thought J.P. France and Yainer Diaz had trouble getting on the same page. “They were out of synch”

Throw the rookie under the bus... Great

Dusty has joined the ranks of Covid for me. Never want to hear of or from it again.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.
How does that even make sense. Aren't the pitches call electronically from the bench?EastCoastAgNc said:Dusty Baker said he thought J.P. France and Yainer Diaz had trouble getting on the same page. “They were out of synch”

Stfu Dusty
With how we play on the road I bet we sweep the ****ers back in bean town...maybe a road WC series won't be so bad... What a season.
Dusty gonna point fingers and claim credit.
If they were out of sync how could you have helped them not be in that situation?

Jimbo and Petrino better bring it or this fall could be really rough. Dusty doesn't have a clue and he's just blinded by his 2022 ring
By the way, if anyone is keeping up, its 1-45 now. 1 for freaking 45.
He needs to be in the minors because its in his head.

Send him to Corpus and completely take the pressure off.
and this is why Larry Dierker didn't like team meetings.W said:
and speaking of former managers...and since the Astros had a team meeting yesterday...
time to recall Dierker's comments on team meetings...
he said he didn't like them. Because if you have a team meeting and lose again...then what?
won the first 2 games...lost the next 2 games...now what?
It's time for the super elite team meeting to be held in Bobby Dynamite's lair and presided over by Mattress Mack.
So our largest run loss differential in franchise history is 16 runs which we tied today
I really thought we hit our low point if the season 3 or 4 times now be we somehow keep lowering the bar

Ohtani has a torn UCL. Man that sucks.

These games happen...it doesn't mean anything.
Now....there are some things going on that mean something.

Schwab can be such a clownHow long have you been sitting on this one? That’s the 9th time the Astros have allowed double digit runs. It’s the second time Yainer was the starting catcher. Cesar Salazar was the starter in one. Maldy started the other six. But good effort. https://t.co/2WeQf9WPX5

No one is going to be happier to see Donkey go than Yanier. His boss never misses a chance to **** on him.
He's usually a clown. Homer to the extent he's blinded.

Maybe would have lost all 4 without the team meeting, so call it even?

One time somebody commented on one of his pro-Maldy tweets with "dude give it up, he's not going to sleep with you" and I dont think I've laughed that hard in a while
If you took out posts about Dusty or Maldonado, this thread would be 12 pages long.

Next year it'll be Tucker/Bregman/Altuve extensions, LMJ injury updates, and some starting pitcher who sucks

What time is first pitch?

When you hit as well as Yainer does, you don’t need your late-night, lights-off, computer-on homework sessions to be publicized to assert your value.

Also, Dusty can gf himself
