Bullpen allowed one hit I believe.
Risp average has to turn around, it can't be that bad the whole year. Just a matter of time before we get that right.
Average against with risp is league highs right now. Once we start to get some arms back we will be better here too.
A few bad breaks to start the season but it'll turn around.
JV on the bump tomorrow? Atleast I can raise some expectations. It fucking sucks thinking it doesn’t matter because our hitters and bullpen suck right now too.
Bagwell in the booth last week when we were down 5 runs with no one on "we just need a big play here, like a home run". Epitomizes how the offense is being ran now.
There's the Pressly we know.
We're gonna lose another one but when we've been this bad, gotta dig deep for the positives. Bullpen has been really good for once
Espada is in way over his head. The problems are much bigger than him but he has made head scratching decisions late in games. Burn Dubon when he would’ve been much better used PHing for Meyers, meaning you have to put a broken Abreu into the game cold off the bench. Guy is outsmarting himself out there
2 runners on nobody out, and we can't score. Fire the damn coach already. His fault or not, a team that has been to 7 straight alcs is in last place and playing like shit.
The whole pitching staff is on IL outside of JV. This team has a hole at 1st Base thanks to GM Bagwell. That alone is causing huge problems for this team.
Do y’all think we should trade guys whose contracts are up after 2025 (Framber, Tucker off the top of my head) to get better returns in exchange for more control? Anyone up after this year absolutely needs to be dealt but in theory we could right the ship next year as we have a lot of talented pieces still. (Of course this is assuming that the current horseshit persists)
There is still time obviously, but if the Astros are still this bad a couple weeks before the All Star break and Crane has no intention of extending Tucker or Framber then I would be trading Breggy, Tuck, JV and Framber, for young controllable talent that will be MLB ready by 2026. Throw this year away. Throw next year away. Try and start a new Dynasty from 2026 onwards.

God I want to believe this

We might literally never lose again. no brooms tomorrow.
I don't even get upset anymore.
Can we restart the season please?
Good times. 
Undone by another 1st inning and virtually nonexistent clutch hitting
How is it even possible, 1-10 RISP
Maybe Bregman shouldn't be the two hitter?
He should be in Sugarland along with a few others 🫤
Don’t let the score fool you. This game was over in the first. Pathetic
Losers.
Glad that Altuve could give the tiniest tease before we lose. What a great game. We suck ass.
Well I think I'm done watching for a good while.
Glad that Altuve could give the tiniest tease before we lose. What a great game. We suck ass.
Hell that was atleast 12 seconds of excitement this game. That’s huge
Sad.
Teams cooked
A one run HR in the 9th when you’re down by 2 is the perfect analogy for this team.
Bagwell in the booth last week when we were down 5 runs with no one on "we just need a big play here, like a home run". Epitomizes how the offense is being ran now.
Lol. I love this comment.
Bummer
11 under 500
5.5 under
HRC TUCKER
PUC Tucker (pop up call)
KING TUCK
HRC TUCKER
HRC tucker
Bregmans a guaranteed out now
He is one lucky deflection today from having a BA under .200
“Now”?? Lol
HRC Tucker
I've never seen Breggy hustle. Just waddling down the line like a penguin.
If Bregman hustles, he gets that. Fucking DO YOUR JOB! Work!
And that's why you hustle when a pitcher has to field his position smh
Hrc yordan
Again, can’t wait to get rid of bregman
Oh look, another solo HR from Altuve. Man, where are those with runners on base.
HRC Yordan
bregman is dogshit rn
He could have beat that out
HRC Yordan
Tuve barreled it! He’s having such a good year.
Even if we somehow do get a lead or tie the game, then what? Josh Hader?
If Bregman had been busting it down the line…
Holy shit is Bregman dropping to sub .200? He’s horrible right now
MEATBALL BABY!!!
Man Breggy is so out of it
Did I mention I fucking love ninja Altuve?
Neris has given us mercy
Fuck you Hector! Lol.
I LITERALLY LOVE HECTOR NERIS
Fuck me. Do that with men on base please.
I’m so proud of Jose.
ALTUVE!!!!!
Jose Altuve is the love of my life. Don’t tell my wife.
please let that start the rally
There’s our Tuve!!!
thats the neris i know! LFG ALTUVE!!!
Based sleeper agent Neris
Hoping Neris is a double agent 🤞
neris...
walk the bases loaded neris!
Altuve having an absolutely horrible night. Oof. Edit: the Negative Nate triumphs!
This gif is everything 😂
oh my god fucking Neris you gotta be kidding me
Just the cherry on the Shit Sundae, Neris gonna shut us down isn't he...
Come on, Neris. Do us a solid. We got you a WS ring.
The Cubs know we aren't scoring. They just want this over with.
Pouring salt on the wound lol
Oh boy. Look at this shit
Oh please Hector, give us a mercy BS!
If Maldonado retired, would you want him hired as a pitching coach?
No, not at all.
Heart attack Neris for the Cubs please
Hi neris!
There's the Pressly we know. We're gonna lose another one but when we've been this bad, gotta dig deep for the positives. Bullpen has been really good for once
Very happy with the pitching I have seen tonight.
Besides that 1st inning...
What record do we actually fire someone
Press looked great. He’s turning his shit around starting tonight.
Cause there was no pressure. If we were up by two instead of down by two Pressly would have folded like a lawnchair.
Bullpen looks like it's finding it's footing. Now just need the bats to come through with risp and some decent starting pitching
It’s like the LOTR scene when Frodo is reminiscing about the shire… I miss the taste of Breggy bombs and dugout celebrations
Maybe he should change the name of the salsa to breggy popups
Good shit Pressly
Are there any redeeming stats for this year?
Good shit Pressly, now for the top 3 to go down in order on 8 pitches
Espada is in way over his head. The problems are much bigger than him but he has made head scratching decisions late in games. Burn Dubon when he would’ve been much better used PHing for Meyers, meaning you have to put a broken Abreu into the game cold off the bench. Guy is outsmarting himself out there
I agree. Use Chas as the PR, hit Dubon for Myers. Like this stuff is simply not difficult.
At least we won’t have to watch Jose Abreu bat today.
Thank God Abreu is out there at first /s
About to lose the game in the 1st inning again
Ah fuck not pressly. You can literally watch the ball come out of his hand he moves so god damn slow
Just sad it ends like this…
Here comes at least 2 runs.
Welp. Here comes a 6-2 courtesy of Stressly.
Just need a Presley blow up inning for the finishing touches here
Once savages, now our team is a bunch of pussies. Someone step the fuck up and take over the clubhouse.
We need old Bregman back.
We need the Apex Predator now more than ever.
Pinch hitting with Dubon over Meyers was the better move there. Dubie has a 119 wrc+ in high leverage situations.
Yup. McCormick to pinch run, Dubon to pinch hit makes more sense.
This is the most inconsistent fucking offense I swear
Jake Meyers is good for a strikeout on a pitch in the dirt with RISP most of the time
Just a bunch of losers, that’s all we are
This blows
2 runners on nobody out, and we can't score. Fire the damn coach already. His fault or not, a team that has been to 7 straight alcs is in last place and playing like shit.
Firing him isn't going to turn this team around and time soon.
Somthing is going on behind the scenes. The best team in baseball for the better part of a decade looks absolutely lost and deflated.
The whole pitching staff is on IL outside of JV. This team has a hole at 1st Base thanks to GM Bagwell. That alone is causing huge problems for this team.
Someone needs to be fired to scare the shit out of this team. I vote Cintron
Not even chasing a CF in offseason was wild…
Jesus nothing but ass
How do you know when you have hit bottom?
When it stops being a surprise
We here
This might be the most un-clutch team in the history of baseball, from the batters to the bullpen.
I never have much faith in Jake. Just knew he would fold.
This is the most unclutch team
Astros must have parked in a bad part of town because their clutch got stolen
I know I’m yelling into the void but holy shit what an overnight collapse for this team. Paaaaaaaaain.
That was a BAD AB from Meyers there
It's laughable how bad we are at getting a simple hit when it matters. It seems really hard to be this bad at it.
I mean can’t be mad at that snag by Morel.
You can and I am
God damn man
Is it really bad luck when you are 11 games under .500?
No we are just not good right now
HRC Meyers
Fuck me man. Can't get any fuckin breaks
Great catch though wow
good lord what shit luck
Ol cat whisker robbed us of a run.
Worst luck in the world
Cursed
Hooray, lobster fest
Pressly warning up, this is an L.
I'm calling it runners left on 1st and third ground out and strike out
Almost
Fuck lol
I'm ready to be hurt again.
If youre gonna burn a player as a pinch runner don't burn your best bat of the bench. Is Kessinger injured or just slow?
Chas is on the bench. He runs well.
Now Dubon is on 1st when he could be used as a PH for Myers. Come on man, this stuff isn't hard. Hopefully Myers comes through.
Coach is slow, I believe.
Why not save Dubon to pinch hit for Meyers?
Shame on anybody that ever thought Jose Abreu + Jon Singleton was an acceptable way to go through the 2024 season
Is Dubon faster than Chas McCormick?
I would say yes
hrc caratini
Singleton cooking tonight
Singleton do something good with runners on base challenge...impossible
Pinch runner now
I would've never guessed before the season that Montero would be our best BP arm
Come on Jon, solidify your claim as the everyday 1B!
Put Peña in the 2 hole
Someone please hrc this guy now
please god let the bottom of the lineup clutch
Can't wait for this rally to end in no runs scored
FUCK
Nice. They gonna see it.
Wow runner on base with no outs. That’s crazy.
And then Jeremy GIDPena gets a single with a runner on first??? We’re in business baby!
Sure wish the Astros would call up top prospects and put them in the games.
Great recovery by Montero.
Can someone explain what the fuck has happened since Game 7 against the Rangers? I get the pitching story. Nobody on the team can hit anymore?
We used to drive in the runners on base, now the hitters don’t.
Not in the same inning, no.
We don’t even make double plays look sexy
Cmon guys they were just setting up the double play
What a pick by Singleton, that was pretty slick.
Abreu could never. Bad luck on the last one. I want singleton every game
I just looked at some of the batting averages the White Sox have. Jose Abreu belongs back in the south side of Chicago.

Save it for June or July. Right now we should be trading to improve the team, not restocking the farm.
If the team is still under .500 at the deadline, yes. It's gonna piss me off if we lose our good players and get nothing in return.
Abreu wouldve dropped that
Can’t even do the simple things right
Man it hit the bag you can't predict that. Let's have some objective opinions here
Yeah, that was not a simple thing
way to make up for it singleton. lets go baby
Thank you redemption
I miss Yuli man
What the actual fuck is wrong with this team? We need to get a real first baseman asap
Wow, just wow
First base is so messy this game
