That's why I'm not a fan of the bunt. Gives them a free out and out offense isn't good enough to overcome that

Make him throw strikes
Better than a double play 
Those last two pitches that Dubon hacked at were never strikes. Swinging at balls in the dirt. Just garbage
"It's just another corps trip boys, we'll march in behind the band"
Not sure I've ever seen a pitcher come into a jam, throw that bad, and get out of it
Pitiful.
Did Joe show any emotion?

The problem was it left 1B open and they could walk Caratini knowing there are no sticks behind him.
This team is an absolute beating right now. Good god.
the Astros don't score much nowadays
Our bottom 1/2 sucks balls … can't get a dam run in that situation
If only our offense brought it as hard as TRM
Bases juiced. One out. Fail to even put the ball in play.

Except they didn't walk caratini to get to those guys. They walked him because he couldn't find the strike zone. Yet we swung at crap anyway.
As I said earlier, no need to throw a single strike to this team. They will get themselves out because they are either overly aggressive or can't recognize a breaking pitch.
Blame the players if you want. I'll stick with the one common denominator.

If Dubon had same plate discipline as Leon would've gotten the BB RBI
This is not a playoff team and I wish the division didn't force us to pretend it is so I could stop subjecting myself to this.
They need to hold a funeral ceremony for the bats like they did for Carlos Beltran's glove since we don't use them anymore.
My god Tucker covered up some glaring holes in this offense.
Well, I don't blame Pedro Leon. Hope his patience starts to pay off for him, soon, though
Astros offense is like that toxic ex you convince yourself isn't crazy and it'll be different this time because you had some fun times in the past
Cmon ump
Cintron is under contract through next season. He shouldn't even have made the trip to Arlington. My re-found faith in Espada is fading...
No real experience in that particular matter, but I have to imagine the crazy ex puts out more oftentjack16 said:

They looked pretty decent the 3-4 weeks before the all star break. I have to say tho… this has been pitiful since the break.
Nice play by Meyers
Defense is saving this game so far.
Nice play, Jake.
JAKE playing like he wants to be a pro baseball player
Abreu with another clean inning
Nice inning by Abreu.
NOW SCORE SOME MF'N RUNS
This offense is brutally bad right now.

Yes and no….. decent arm in left field and they don't go 1st to 3rd on a single right to the LF. They also likely don't tag up on a short pop up that he manages to throw worse than my 3 year old. Which thankfully didn't cost us anymore.
