This was a game that Espada compeltely whiffed on managing. The stupid decision to draw in the infield in the 4th only to think Weems going two innings was a brilliant idea. Weems should have come out after the call that was overturned into an out.

8-2 with a -4 run differential. Everyone on this thread understands baseball at a level where that is unsustainable.

We currently have the most players on the IL in the MLB. It's a good thing we overperformed the first half of the season

Sure. But only 3 of them actually matter. Maybe 4. 
Yordan, Pena, Javier, dubin. The rest are replaced with like quality more or less.

We finish the season 5-4 against the white sox and Rockies.
 
 
Sigh 

Not done with Colorado....still have 3 more so it can be worse

Well that’s fun.

i thought we only played each NL team once.

is that part of some sort of “natural rival” BS?

or do we just rotate playing one NL team home and home every year?

Damn the dodgers are gonna blast LMJ in the first 3-4 innings. Terrible timing to not get framber and Hunter in this series.

?

Framber starts Saturday.

or are you saying sucks Hunter isn’t also pitching this series, in which case meh. 
it’d be awesome to see the AL Cy young winner face off against the NL’s best in July, but considering the run support we give Hunter, I’m fine with him shutting down the Rockies and guardians on either side of the Dodger series

Toronto swept the Yankees out of 1st place.

Springer had a series

Reached base 12 times. 8-14, 4 BBs, 7 runs, 11 RBIs, 4 HRs including a grand slam

increased OPS from .822 to .891

Not sure 6 yrs, $150M was worth it but somehow there is only 1.5 years left on that deal. And would much rather be in that spot now than 4.5 years left on Altuve’s deal.

just glad he’s having a resurgence now right as my 10 yo decided to re-up for #4 on his jersey for his fall baseball season.

Nervous about this series.

I fail to comprehend how an Astros fan in 2025 can be nervous about a series in the first week of July.

We’ve been in a golden age for a decade.


It don’t make a shit until September.

no matter the outcome, its's just one three-game series in a 162 gm marathon.

just keep playing good baseball and avoid a prolonged losing streak.

Cam Smith will probably be leading the team in Batting avg by all star break.....that is both awesome and sad

He's been hot, but there is no way he's catching Pena.

one of his interviews from may or so, he talked about the astro staff had swing changes / modifications for him on day 1, before he ever took a swing here
