We might make the playoffs but I can't with any seriousness pick us to win multiple series once we are there.

I bet 750k International signing money wouldn't have given up two runs.
It kind of feels like we got Tom Sawyered into paying to take a 5+ ERA reliever with a -.6 bWAR before tonight's troubles off their hands instead of giving them 12 marbles, a tin soldier, six firecrackers, a brass door-knob, etc. for the privilege of being allowed to whitewash Monument Park.
Misguided optimism on the sixth hit. Mea culpa.
Astros are 2-4 in their last six games. In that span, they’re slashing .215/.271/.325 with four homers, 13 walks and 45 strikeouts. They are 6-for-43 (.140) with RISP.

Does 86 wins take the division? 'Cause I don't think it'll be enough for a WC.
Given the bats they traded for, I can't see their offense staying as anemic as it was. If their pitching stays solid, we will need to do more than what we have been doing since the ASG to beat them. Firing Cintron and promoting somebody who can convince our guys to take a pitch every now and then and quit swinging at low and away crap they can't reach would be a good start.tjack16 said:f1ghtintexasaggie said:EastCoastAgNc said:Astros have 52 games remaining.

I think 86 likely does. But we still need the mariners to stay cooled down. Them getting hot would end our season

Didn't have to be this way right now if we could make decent contact with a baseball.

How could he have made Yordan and Altuve hit home runs again or everyone else stop striking out?

Genuine question. How would you have done that? Who would you have traded for? And who would you have sent in return?
