If I were Espada I'd put Caratini at catcher tomorrow and put Yainer at first base replacing Abreu. Put Dubon as DH.

This is just pathetic. Flat out.
Thank goodness the Aggies won tonight but still this first two games sucked

3 relievers last night and 4 relievers tonight allowed runs to score.
Martinez, Montero, Mushinski, Scott, and Bielak have zero business pitching in anything but blowouts.

5 pitchers who have no business pitching in close games? How do we manage that?
Well we had a good run.
Should have gotten another outfielder too. McCormick plus Meyers isn't a recipe for success imo.

This.
Outside of Javier, just an awful game on every front. Really inexcusable baseball
I haven't seen such a poorly played 3 innings since 2012. Awful baseball all around.
What we meant is tomorrow the season stats.
Duh
Duh
No idea why that emoji was used
Not worried yet. But this team depth, and middle relief is something to keep an eye on as the season moves forward.
I don't like that so much of the pitching depth is reliant on guys coming back from injuries and hoping they don't have any drop off

So what are we thinking...Must win tomorrow? Game 3 of the season
3-14 now.

Dana must wake up every day...
thankful he wasn't the GM yet when Jose Abreu was signed
what a disaster contract

Apparently every game is a must win or the season is a failure and the GM and owner suck.Ag_07 said:

That entire off-season was a disaster. Him and Montero
Montero even worse.
I don't want to sit through another 2023 guys.

This team always struggles early before putting together several win steaks. We will be alright.

I have a feeling Montero and Jose Abreu will pretty much be the exact same players they were in 2023.

Move Abreu down or out would be a good place to start.
Certainly! Singleton to start at 1b tomorrow.
Somebody's got to start thinking outside the box here...
Hey Joe Dirt is a Mariner now
Outside of the low leverage relief pitchers blowing up this game the Astros had there chances. Just missing that big hit tonight. They had plenty of runners on and had chances especially early on to blow it open. No need to meltdown and bench everyone yet.
Honestly Peña swings have looked solid so far actually trying to hit the ball where it's pitched. Abreu has just barely missed the ball and his putting good swing on everything. Even Jake hit the ball hard just right at them. They will be fine. Javier pitched his butt off and looked good. Plenty of positives in tonight's game.

1 win from a WS….
it seems like teams have figured out how to eliminate the Astros power
it's singles, singles, and more singles at MMP
the Astros have 20 hits in the 2 games, and I believe 17 are singles

Zero doubt about that. What we need is Espada to realize it sooner than later.

Problem with that is we have a pretty tough first month or so ahead. Pretty much all teams that are looking to compete in a serious way. We need to avoid a death spiral before summer begins.

Should have gotten an OFer and another SP. Oh well. Espada needs to make his first big managerial move - bench Abreu.
Don't know how you can bench him with the current roster, but he needs to be hitting 7th. Immediately.
You don't bench your big money 1b two games into a season. My god. Some of yall sound like the slaps who call into 790 post game to *****. Heard a guy last night say Hader should've pitched the 7th

Start Dubon at 1B. Or Diaz. Do something bold.
