Jose is leading off today.......it would be nice to have someone who will see more than one pitch.

Nice start for Javier. Sure would be nice to see the bats come alive.

Melvin doesn’t challenge a ball that landed fair, and they still get a 3-run HR. Jesus.

javier is getting hammered......He is a rookie so a bad start is not surprising. A's up 5-0........game over.........Astros offense non-existent........we go home 5.5 games behind the A's.

I think the goal should be the postseason, not the division.

I think the goal should be the postseason, not the division. This is what it is now......getting in the post-season is our best bet. With this offense, that will be a challenge. We keep hearing not to worry that these guys will hit......It's about time it started. |

Our guys just don’t do as much with hittable pitches as their opponents. Arizona schooled them and now the A’s.

That was it. Correa cluelessly down on three swings.

That was it. Correa cluelessly down on three swings. None of which were strikes. \ I am sure this is not the case, but the vibes they give off makes it appear that they are just going through the motions. |

None of which were strikes. \ I am sure this is not the case, but the vibes they give off makes it appear that they are just going through the motions. When a couple of hitters slump, it makes sense. Too often, we have almost the whole lineup struggling for long stretches. Either the hitting coach is largely useless, or they really are lost without some kind of cheating scheme. |

I have thought the hitting coaches were useless for a long time. Do we see any adjustments by these players during slumps? Do they try to hit to the opposite field? NO......we see all of them trying to hit home runs with almost every swing. |

How did they make it to the World Series last year? There was no cheating. You sound like a skankee fan. |

Quite possibly one of the worst series I've seen by the offense in a long time.

The 2015 Astros, quite possibly the 2014 as well, had a far more exciting offense than these guys.

Quite possibly one of the worst series I've seen by the offense in a long timne. It is at least in the top 3. I saw very little emotion until Gareau tackled Laureano. I also applaud Dusty for letting the plate umpire know what he thought of his strike zone. Mostly, the whole team was out of sorts. |

What did y'all think about this dude storming toward the Astros dugout after he got beaned? Rumors are flying that he may be banned for the season. Garneau tackled him lol Tackle football |
