What an absolute joke. This lineup is bad.

Blummer has Tucker pegged. Bust Tucker under the hands with the swing he has.

Sure glad I didn’t pay good money to watch this motley crew from a seat at MMP.

Folks, we just saw why we lose games..bases loaded NO outs, Tucker takes two straight fastballs in the same location to get called out, then, Maldonado hits an automatic DP ball to Segura and we get nothing. Unless a miracle happens, we will be swept by the Mariners. We have got NOTHING off a horrible pitcher. pathetic

What an absolute joke. This lineup is bad. I’m not sure a healthy and productive Altuve can fix what ails this bunch.

I doubt any opposing pitcher would be scared facing Tucker and Maldanado.

About to be 6-9 without Altuve?

About to be 6-9 without Altuve? It’s going to take way more than Altuve to save this sinking ship, I’m afraid. I don’t see any Verlander-like team salvation trade coming this year either.

Another day another wasted quality start. Take heart Astros fans, nothing lasts forever.

One win can turn it around. ....and then a loss turn it back around again. Only thing consistent about this team is it’s inconsistency.

the word must be out on Correa, 1st pitch fastball in the heart of the plate and he eyeballs it.

Correa 0 for his comeback. First pitch was a hittable fastball. Three innings left.

second pitch he swings at one 6" off the plate. Jeez

Correa averages with the count.....
0-2.... .161. 1-2..... .178 2-2..... .220 3-2.... .211
That’s bad.
Now 2-0 it’s likely over.

Todd talking about the record home in losses in 13. These last few games look like a flash back to that season.

Correa 0 for his comeback. First pitch was a hittable fastball. Three innings left. He wasn’t even hitting AA pitching before he was activated by the big club.

I wouldn’t pinch hit Stassi for Kemp.
