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

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
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”

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?
This isn't a low point.Boiling Denim said:
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
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

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

No one is going to be happier to see Donkey go than Yanier. His boss never misses a chance to **** on him.

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.
