    I kinda blame Espada for this bullpen management.

    Abreu seems to lose his ability to focus in the closer role.

    You can’t ignore the 3 runs on 11 hits though from this offense either.

    Ok folks, that would mark the end of the season for the Astros.

    A podunk hitter that should have been overmatched.

    Springer, put us out of our misery.

    You f*cking loser batters leaving countless men on base. You're to blame. The game should have been 6-1 by now.

    Houston sports can be very bad for one's mental health.

    Doesn’t even matter if he gets out of this. Our offense isn’t going to do **** anyway

    The inability to throw strikes is what cost Abreu. If we had one more healthy starter... I would have opt for Javier as your closer.

    The Astros had an improbable 30-10 stretch earlier in the year.

    They are trash the rest of the season
