    Stat Pad game for batting average !!!!

    Smh.. Correa's last AB gave me visions of Pete Rose. Could've been a huge moment in his return but looked like he wasn't trying to win.

    Avoid the sweep

    That is just stunning! How do you fix that? Is that a lineup sequence problem? Lack of hitting talent? Wrong matchups with pitching? Chance?

    This was a mind-numbingly stupid performance.

    Lack of effort?! That would be inexcusable. I think he is still adjusting to change. Hopefully he will settle in. Has to be a bit overwhelming.

    Damn, that game was just so stupid. This team just isn't right at the moment. Hopefully they wake up.

    Nah, that would be noticeable and an absolute killer. The guys are pros, and very, very competitive. Sometimes **** just happens.

    Told yall Correa isn’t a good bat anymore. He’s a huge downgrade from Parades.

    Still 3.5 up in the division, only 2.5 out of best record in AL. If this “new” group can somehow figure it out, albeit in the middle of a fairly challenging 9 game road stretch, they can “still” get a 1st RD bye or better. But they’re going to need to turn the corner soon

    Tony Perezchica is a Terrible 3B Coach, Jesus Sanchez getting run down at 3B, Dave Clark at 1B Jose Altuve caught at 1B.

    As a 3B Coach, Astros really need a Former Defensive Outfielder that can read Body Language of Outfielders that are ready to throw or are confused and late reaction on throws to 3B.

    Gary Pettis is sorely missed.

    The only good news is that Seattle Lost.

    Rangers and Seattle beating up on each other at least.

    And a huge defensive upgrade over Shay Whitcomb and a huge offensive upgrade over Short/Guillorme.

    He's been bad all year as third-base coach but apparently really good in coaching up the defense of Paredes and the infielders.
