Bagwell's evil plan to keep having the Astros sign washed up first basemen so we pine for him by comparison is pure genius.

Don’t expect to win every game but goddamn we don’t even look semi competitive against the Pirates

We need to trade Jake to a team that can hit.

Well at least Melton looks ready to rake.

We will always have the walk he drew against Skenes.

Haven’t scored more than 3 runs in a week. But for 3 incredible pitching performances, we’re likely looking at 6 straight losses.

Gusto is obviously just a guy but if you told me we’d be into the 7th inning in one of his starts with only 3R allowed, I’d take that every time.

The offense is a complete goatfrick.

We have probably 1.5 players with an approach at the plate

Paredes and some credit given to Caratini

Yep. And it’s telling that neither one of those guys are home grown.

You can throw Peña in there at this time, too.

ETA: Last night’s dinger out of the equation and Esock is going through it right now. Pressing hard.

Beating Skenes and then losing to some a-hole with an 8 ERA is so on brand for this team

Exactly what I’m bitching about on full display

2-0 count to Pena down by 3 runs top 8 as a leadoff hitter and he swings at a slider on next pitch

A decent beat writer for the Astros would ask these questions. First pitch offspeed swings into DPs included

It should be embarrassing. Do your job

Yeah, he won’t finish this contract on the active roster

Only question is whether he lasts as long as Abreu

Nice AB, Jake

He’s proving to be consistent enough to rely on

Snitker helped him figure out pitch recognition. It seems only him and Pena could be helped by our two-headed hitting coach monster.

Mitch Keller is gonna shove extremely hard tomorrow. Ain’t gonna be pretty, but neither has most of the season.
