Honestly the three guys they showed who are on rehab assignments are better than what we got. They still don’t excite me though.
Abreu showed flashes but inconsistent, James has an electric fastball but also inconsistent, and Pruitt is an unknown.

Maybe we will play better on the road against a team above .500.

Me too because he has good stuff. He is just wild and can’t locate his fastball. |

Those guys make Tony Sipp look like a Cy Young contender. |

Can't put this one on the bullpen. 5 IP 1 Run is pretty good.
I put this on Robel and Bucknor.

I should have known it was going to be a bad night when my boy Shohei got bounced in the first inning.

If any of the three can help, it will be better than most of what we have in the pen. James has been dominant at times, but, has never shown signs of being consistent. Abreu is a potentially dominant reliever, but, he also has control issues. I haven't seen an update on Paredes lately and he is another guy who is potentially dominant. If they all came around and could locate their pitches, we'd have a dominant pen instead of a trash heap. One thing for sure, I hope we have seen the last of Joe Smith. |

It is hard to believe this is the same team who put up all of those runs during an 11 game winning streak. We have been swept four times......by Texas, Colorado, Detroit, and Baltimore who are four of the worst teams in the major leagues. Crane should offer free tickets to fans who show up on the next home stand with ticket stubs to any of these three games because the Astros stole their money. |

I don't know exactly how umpires are evaluated or if videos of their games are sent to the supervisor of umpires or whoever is in charge of them. I do know they should have to watch the pitiful job turned in by Bucknor tonight. This was absolutely the worst job I've ever seen done by a major league umpire. He was worse than Angel Hernandez and that is pretty damn bad.

There needs to be a way to weed out incompetent clowns like Bucknor and Hernandez. |

C.B. Bucknor historically sucks just like Angel Hernandez, but the bottom line was the Astros just plain failed. There’s no excuse for losing 5/7 to a couple of garbage teams. Hopefully, they got the sucking out of their system because they’re scheduled to face actually good teams now.

If they follow the trend, they will go into Cleveland and win at least three of the four games. |
