Great inning.......Bregman strikes out AGAIN......Correa pops up,....and Marwin pops up a bunt to the pitcher.........Where is the leadership on this team?? It apppears to be totally lacking. I don't think we really knew how valuable Beltran was to this team.
I have one word to describe the 2018 version of Carlos Correa.......a five letter word beginning with "P"

In terms of quality AB’s.

Here’s Laureano....the guy who was determined by our FO to be unworthy of being protected from the Rule 5 draft last December and was traded to Oakland. At least we still have Fisher.

Keuchel is keeping us in there. I like how Bregman threw out someone at first base on a slow roller. I always thought of that as the weak part of his game. |

I’m sick of Chapman and Piscotty. They never stop.

The difference in team confidence between these two right now is almost tangible.

Todd Kalas just mentioned the Astros have one hit in the last 9 innings.
One player in the lineup today with an OPS over .800.

Man, Oakland can do no wrong right now. The A’s want it and are willing to bust their butts to take it. Astros are willing to take it if it falls to them easily. |

The difference in team confidence between these two right now is almost tangible. You just look at the difference in AB’s. One team battles 1-9 while the other can’t wait to get it over with. |

The difference in team confidence between these two right now is almost tangible. In other words, we have a hungry team in the A's playing a satisfied team, the Astros. We will leave Oakland is second place. |

I really have understanding Hinch's role right now. He continues to put a lineup out that has failed and continues to fail on numerous occasions. Yet it is the Same Line with a minor change. Same people in Leadoff and Same People in 3/4 who are clueless right now.

If they can somehow comeback and take this game it would completely change things... Big if

Stassi has gone cold too. I wish White would get in there somehow.

Never Settle- I think maybe someone should put that on everyone's Locker so that they can see it. And under it Put Failing in Great Big Capital Letters.
Luhnow needs to learn the art of Trading. He seems to fail more often than not in the trading realm. He really let the team down this year. This has been going on since the first month and has continued to get worse each month. This offense display is fully expected by the team he kept.

At the airport in Detroit getting ready to board for Germany. Please make sure our Astros are in first place when I get back.
