Lost 6 of the last 8. If Altuve is going to be out for an extended period of time things will get interesting.

Over under 7.5 pitches for Miller in the ninth
Over. Barely. 13 total pitches for 6 outs.

Man, I love getting beat by a second row Crawford Box shot...need some help from Meyers/Dubon/Heyward against Mason Miller
And it wasn't on a bad pitch. Maybe a little elevated but it wasn't in the strike zone. And it was McCanns first ever contact on a Hunter Brown pitch.

The singleton pop up and Pena double play was the dagger. Up 1 with men on the corner and no outs… stranded them. Scoring 2 there makes it 5-2 and swings all the momentum your way
It's our Manfredball strategy in a nutshell and how this team hits with RISP overall. We strand them anywhere and anytime.
Astros fall to 77-68
topping out at 85 wins seems about right

Consistently losing to the A's is incredible
Great job ! Way to be clutch !
This ****ing team is infuriating
The Altuve error didn't help either
glad they turned it around but this not a good sign for a post season run its like they just said f t
They are letting the Ms hang around. We are turning a sure thing into a nail biter.
as terrible -- and I mean terrible -- as the Mariners have been since July 1st...
Seattle will have a chance to right all their wrongs at MMP in 2 weeks

And to top it off, that Altuve injury didn't look good. That swing was awkward. It's got oblique written all over it.
Odds that the mariners are within 2 games of us when they come to Minute Maid in 2 weeks?
The Astros are inviting Seattle to swipe the division.

Continued garbage in close games.
15-26 in 1-run games.
3-12 in games tied after 7 inns.
5-9 in extra inns.
Still 0 wins when down after 8 (0-52)
But losing to A's not shameful.
Since All-Star break:
A's 27-22
Astros 27-21

6-1 vs Royals (4-0), D'Backs (2-1)
0-5 vs Reds (0-3), A's (0-2)
the Rangers will have a big say in that
play the M's 7 times between now and Seattle's series at MMP

one recommendation for Dana and Joe...
Framber and Kikuchi must start every 5 days
scrap the 6-man rotation
don't have the luxury of having them pitch once a week

Beat good teams. Roll over for bad ones.
Chas McCormick has a fracture in his right hand and is going on the IL, Joe Espada said.

The wheels are falling off
With the caveat that he hadn’t spoken to the Astros’ trainers yet, Joe Espada sounded optimistic about Jose Altuve. Espada said he’s “not concerned it’s an oblique”
— Chandler Rome (@Chandler_Rome) September 12, 2024
Side transplant, hell miss 3-4 years
McCormick says he has a small fracture below his index finger. He said he’ll be back at the end of the season.

“It’s not a serious thing,” he said. pic.twitter.com/TyLlD3zrz1
How is a fracture going to heal in 2 weeks? Are we seriously gonna put him back in the lineup after a broken finger with no rehab?
WTF. This should have been a move done before the game.EastCoastAgNc said:Chas McCormick has a fracture in his right hand and is going on the IL, Joe Espada said.

Looking a lot better now. This team is fully capable of blowing this thing and they're sure trying.
I'd hate to talk too loud about this but there's a PERFECT game going on up in Seattle right now.
What, a PERFECT GAME? I've never actually watched a PERFECT GAME.
I'm going to go turn it on and see if he can stay PERFECT.

Nailed it - SD homer as I hit submit
Aaaaaand followed up by a double.
Come on Padres, keep going until you steal this win

I miss the days of 2017-2019 and 2022 where we could coast through September and not sweat the division because we took care of business in the early months

a couple of stats to make you pull your hair out...
since the all-star break...
Jake has a .509 OPS in 154 at-bats
Pena has 5 walks in 186 at-bats
somebody get these guys some help

Gamel has 11 walks in 56 at-bats since joining the Astros
(11 walks in 67 plate appearances)
go figure
