yep, we haven't seen a team whip the Astros like this since the 2016 season (against the Rangers)

Here's the thing. If Tucker is in the building… you play Tucker. You can't afford not to right now.

Tell that to our sub 75 IQ manager that doesn't know we're not leading the division by 10 games

You know what is even better to think about? That Kessinger probably would be playing today if he wasn't on the IL.

Our staff isn't very good right now either

60 pitches in two innings. And to combat that the Astros have the bottom half of their lineup on deck.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

Before I leave, if we get swept here, our boys are in trouble.

To be fair, our staff has been scuffling most of the season as well. We've just had better luck and it's finally regressing to the average.

Framber has had a terrible second half, Javi is mentally toast, and Brown has been inconsistent. JP France has really been the only workhorse who's performing above expectations. Hopefully Verlander gets us across the finish line.

I think singleton might need to flatten his swing out a little bit.

Coming out of that Baltimore series I thought we were primed to go on a run. This team all year is just way too inconsistent. A lot of it is on Dusty. But some of it is on injuries and players going cold way too often at the worst possible time.

Flashes of brilliance, but more flashes of incompetence. That's your 2023 Houston Astros.

Good news is the 6 seed (if they hold on to it) gets you the Twins.

Who the Stros lost both series to this year.

Remember how dialed in the Rays were at the beginning of the year and that they were assumed to have cake walk to the division win?

With that uppercut swing he'll bat .165 with 35 HR, 65 RBI and an OPS of .600 a season

gambled that all the regulars would be healthy for the rest of the way

I've never seen a team that is basically managed into a funk like this one.

Win the 1st 2 games of a series…let's empty the bench for the finale; especially if we have anyone who has been hot.

Diaz hits…let's sit him and then be defensive about it when asked.

Either way, it's on Jim Crane for not getting rid of him and realizing that you basically won in spite of him last season. The hitting staff was absolutely brutal most of last season and the hot October got you off the hook.

Basically, ownership ignored in victory last season which will likely be their reason for defeat this season.

They are smoking the ball and our hitters are hitting lazy fly balls

Jeez, you guys are turning this into an in-game Aggie football thread. Who knew these 3 games in mid-Agust were more important then the rest of the season combined?

We are on the struggle bus, but this Mariners lineup needs to hit the craps tables in Vegas with the heater they are on.

I'm convinced this team/coaching staff doesn't really care about winning the division. They have the "just get in and see what happens" mentality.

It might work out… but that first round bye would go a long ways
