Our problems start with, but aren't remotely limited to, the guys at the top of the lineup. It just happens to get even way worse from there.

Astros hitters not named Alvarez are 4 for 42 in the last game and a half.


Finished 4 for 53 over the final 2 games of this series...a smooth .075.

Cue pukey face

Peña is so freaking bad vs breaking balls. How has he not made any adjustments in his career to not swing at absolute crap pitches?

There is absolutely no f***ing reason for Cintron or Snitker to leave the clubhouse today with their jobs. Absolutely none.

TK and Blum giving it to Pena about the first inning again. And this is exactly why dumb approaches at the plate matter. Have some situational awareness.

Oh well, it appears we are what we are. Three dang hits. Fire Cintron now.

This team shouldn't be anywhere near the playoffs, so it's hard to even care what the Mariners are doing right now.

Absolutely pathetic.

I don't know what's worse - the Astros' offense or the Jardiance commercials.

The hitting coaches shouldn't be allowed on the bus to the airport. Call up the minor league coaches, they clearly know better what they're doing. Dana needs to bear significant heat for the state of things, but in coaching staff and roster construction.

this is on Espada too

he needs to take control of Pena's at-bat in that situation

give him the take sign until he gets a strike called

don't be afraid to instruct a .700 OPS hitter

he hasn't earned the right to do his own thing at the plate

That Pena AB in the first was laughable. Even moreso now with the final score.

Announcers trying to sugar-coat the shortcomings of this club.

"Fatigue"? Give me a break. That's crap.

If they are fatigued in early August… we are screwed for the next 2 months

After the 4.1 scoreless and the W today, Alexander's ERA is down to 5.43. Congrats to him.

Two more years on the Lance contract.

McCullers, Abreu, and Montero represent around $48.7 million of our payroll next season.

The LT threshold next season is $241 million, so over 20% of the under LT payroll is tied up in players that can't play or that hurt us when they did. We're getting a taste of life without Tucker too.

We desperately need a GM who can spend Crane's money wisely and Crane to allow him to do so.
this is the killer

there is very little payroll relief coming in 2025...

because the Abreu, Montero, and LMj contracts are still on the books next season

Thanks Dana for doing absolutely nothing in finding a bat at the trade deadline. The team has been dead offensively since the deadline passed.
