August 17, 2025Aug 17 Thanks for a great day of baseball. I’m out. Losing a series to Baltimore. Embarrassing. Fire Espada.
August 17, 2025Aug 17 Fuck Dubin. I never understood the thought he was going to be some bullpen savior. When has he been good? He needs to be in Sugarland by 4 o clock.
August 17, 2025Aug 17 Maybe wait til the dude looks good before you keep bringing him into close games? JFC. FML. As soon as I saw him on the mound I was like ... Edited August 17, 2025Aug 17 by wood

It’s actually even plausible. I’m not mad. We weren’t scoring 2 runs to win this game after Javier gave up a run , so who cares. Let them pound us. We can play rope a dope.
August 17, 2025Aug 17 Also, Baltimore has been pretty good for 3 months. There was a reason I said they terrify me.
August 17, 2025Aug 17 Next time we are in this situation, I'd rather see Chas than Dubin on the mound.
August 17, 2025Aug 17 Sending Dubin out there for two innings when he was in a slump was what we call an Espada. Now this game is essentially over with the 5 runs.
August 17, 2025Aug 17 Jacob Melton is not ready. 13 minutes ago, Wulaw Horn said: He doesn’t have options. Instead of dfa I would smell injury. It’s actually even plausible. I’m not mad.

He can’t hit. maybe he can be a 5th OF as a PR and defensive replacement. At any rate, with Jake and Yordan due back and all our guys other than Chad signed through 2027 I hope we don’t see him again until 2028 at the earliest.

Yeah, according to CTH, he's out of options. https://climbingtalshill.com/astros-players-with-and-without-minor-league-options-on-40-man-roster-for-2025
August 17, 2025Aug 17 Currently Toronto, Detroit and Cleveland are losing. Cleveland is the team we have to stay ahead of to make the playoffs thus why I mention them. of Seattle loses today this will be less impactful. just happy Javier is sick and not injured.
August 17, 2025Aug 17 Trammell can fuck right off as well. We squeezed all the blood out of that turnip we are going to get. Urias is a better player than Dubon. I’m ready for Chas to get sent down and the roster to be: Diaz/walker/urias/pena/correa/Altuve/Meyers/sanchez/yordan. Theres your starters. bench- Dubon/smith/caratini/who fucking cares? Dubon is defensive replacement for Altuve or spells Jake in CF. Smith platoons with Sanchez.

August 17, 2025Aug 17 This series, the Tigers, and then the Orioles again is going to determine the outcome of the season
August 17, 2025Aug 17 I just don't remember so many beatdowns in previous years. Just noncompetitive games you stop paying attention to in thee third inning. I choose to blame Espada because they've got to get rid of him.
August 17, 2025Aug 17 I don't know if it's all Espada's fault but I can't find any evidence or even feeling/gut that tells me he's a good manager either.

But with the stretch run approaching, they’re somehow back where they always are.

August 17, 2025Aug 17 Need a clip of the fan running across the field. at the game, he did nothing that was the least bit entertaining

We had a great run with a lot of people out and a lot of role players picking the team up. That can only last so long. So happy we're (hopefully) getting healthy again soon.

August 17, 2025Aug 17 One of the most embarrassing losses I've ever seen. Just fucking abysmal in everything
