Typical Astros game, its just not our year.... Fire Dusty and Moldy so we can finally get to winning again...
Tucker, where art thou? Yordan, where art thou? Altuve, where art thou? Chas, where art thou? Martin, why can't you just retire like Castro retired?!
As frustrating as this loss is, tomorrow is a new day and an opportunity to even it up. Framber will be ready and locked in. Bats will wake up. Don’t stop believing in this team!
So disappointing tonight.....I have been vocal about Moldy and what a HUGE weakness he is for us offensively. FWIW, I don't think there's anything extraordinary about his defense for that matter. But, runners on base with him at bat is an exercise in futility. Brantley not playing in some capacity at this point should be a fireable offense. It's dirt stupid IMO. I love Altuve but that base running is inexcusable....he could have touched the base and ran BACKWARDS back to first and been safe.
Anything extraordinary about maldy’s defense? Isn’t he literally the worst defensive catcher in baseball?
I thought he graded out as the worst? Maybe I’m mistaken. Watching him, he’s dreadful on defense but who knows
I know. But the pitchers love him and request him. I dunno what to say at this point. I trust them a whole lot more than I trust us, I guess? eta: what's the saying? "familiarity breeds contempt?" That hasn't happened yet with the Stros.
I just feel like luhnow would not allow this garbage. It’s embarrassing what’s happening, win or lose
Anyone who would stop believing in this team never did to begin with. I'm with you, my mang. Go 'Stros!
Needs to quit messing with the batting order 1-5. Tucker hasn’t done crap all playoffs but maybe Abreu got comfortable in the 5 spot. But Tucker hasn’t been god for a good while now, dude needs to step up. Especially since Yordan has a tendency to flame out one series after being a monster in another.
Just the deliberate self sabotage is what I can’t get over. If we play our best players and lose, fine. But intentionally not playing our best just because of dusty’s ego is brutal
Eesh. King Tuck with an OPS of 500 in 2019 alcs. 593 2020. Sat up from his coffin In 2021 alcs with an 885. But 2022 back to a 422 ops in thr alcs. Point is. Don’t look to him for the cavalry. Shockingly 2019 - 625 2020 - 746 2021 - 307 2022 - 929 that would be Maldanados OPS in those ALCS Tucker. One year above 600. Maldanado one year below 600. Baseball. Gotta love it.
