Cut the poor play and start freaking win. Maybe a day game, most of us won’t watch, is the answer. |

I don't put a ton of stock in intangibles, but I'd be very curious to see what would happen if Gurriel was brought back and replaced Abreu. Obviously I don't expect Gurriel to be a good hitter anymore, but he had gotten real good defensively and he could be a huge boost to morale. And hell, even what he did the last couple seasons would be a drastic improvement offensively over Abreu.
Sign Gurriel, drop Singleton. It wouldn't cost hardly anything to just try.

Well it's Singleton instead of Abreu... Unfortunately that's probably the best option right now. He might at least walk or a hit deep flyball...

Really nice start by Altuve. Bring him around!

OR let's just squander every opportunity we get with a runner in scoring position. Geez, this team is bad at executional hitting.

Geez, this is already trending towards a big fat L.

I think Brown needs more time in AAA or the bullpen.

Oof, I'm done with this one. Going to focus back on work.

I’m not big on calling things early, but this formula of relying on JV, Altuve, and Yordan all the time is going to sink us sooner rather than later.

And this team simply does not hit with RISP as with no one on or runner at first.

Can Seth Martinez be made in to a starter? He is better than Brown and the other call-ups.

At least we know who to kick out of the rotation when Verlander is ready to come back.

Diaz homers, Astros are now down 9-1. Don’t call it a comeback, because it isn’t one.

This offense is just lifeless. It’s almost a guaranteed loss when they go to a pitcher-friendly park because they just don’t hit line drives.

ROTFL man. I turned on the recording, decided to go brush my teeth while Brown pitched in the first. Came back out and it's 9-0 ROTFL are you kidding me are they trying to lose.

They're too focused on getting their favorite pitch during the at-bat. They need to focus on the pitch they're probably going to get, and what they're gonna do with it when the barrel's in the zone |

Other teams make it happen. Not all the pitches Brown threw were terrible. The Royals just make good contact and our guys don’t. |

And Tucker was the best |

It’s like he forgot how to dominate outside pitches. |
