Good series, glad they come here first, which has always seemed an impossibility to negotiate, for whatever reason.
But, for the love of God, schedule these games in Week 2. Quit scheduling teams with a pulse for the opener.

Altuve left with “hamstring tightness”. Time to roll out Zach and Smith in the lineup every day.

I don’t blame you, but you’re probably fine. But your pitchers tonight have to suck to give up 7 runs to this terrible Astros offense.

Just turn him into a reliever. Starters who don’t go at least 5 are worthless.
And with this offense, 3 runs feels like 3 touchdowns in football.

I don’t think he’s a bad person, per se, but I never cared for his body language and leadership style with the Saints.
And while he “passes up” $30 million by retiring, he’s getting to keep $10 million for being on the roster even though he won’t be.

I agree with what you’re saying that it’s hard to watch Framber leave for nothing. But it just hasn’t been their MO to trade pending free agents. Tucker was the exception, and maybe that’s the start of a philosophy change.
But it seems like if they were gonna trade Framber, they would’ve done that in the offseason, too, when you can get a bit more for a full season of him instead of three months.
We’ve also seen enough examples of wild-card teams reaching and winning the World Series. The 2023 Series showed that in both leagues, even in the first year with the extended format of an extra best-of-3 for seeds 3 through 6.

Guessing they won’t trade him at the deadline unless they’re way out of the wild-card and/or division races. Considering how bad the AL is, it’s not far-fetched this mediocre group of Astros would still have a shot to get to the postseason at the end of July.
Beyond that, it seems unlikely they would re-sign him. The Astros don’t seem to like re-signing their own free agents unless they can get them for a year or two, like they did a couple of different times with your namesake. The exception would be the 3-year deal they gave Montero.

Yeah, congratulations on improving on every nuanced metric there is to be found on advanced stat sites but not improving on the one metric that matters: runs scored.
And the ones in your graphic are just as much evidence about how putrid the offense is versus whatever else someone wants to find on the advanced stat sites of the world.

I don’t understand why some people who cover this team think it’s sacrilege to hold the hitting coaches accountable. This team needs better hitters, but this offense has been a problem for at least 3 years, even when it had better hitters.
And if this organization can fire a GM days after the club won the World Series, why can’t the hitting coaches get fired because the offense doesn’t produce? Usually in sports, if your unit doesn’t produce, you lose your job.
