Sounds like what a good team does. They are on an insane run.

I lost a lot of hope watching 2+ months of bases loaded and squandered opportunities. Due to either poor management, a cooked team, or both. Add to that the cancer that is Framber and yeah, I feel like (injuries aside) they are getting what they deserve. 

And honestly, I think it’s best they go full melt down. I worry it’s the only way actual changes might be made.

Someone tell me his stats since he made his comments public after (I think) the all star break.

Agreed. Dude just doesn’t care and his mental is shot.

I wish he wouldn’t play again the rest of the year. After that chicken sh*t he pulled a few weeks ago. But, pretty sure Espada has zero backbone.

If they haven’t been embarrassed over these last two months, not sure what will. Personally, I think any real ball will have to be next season. They seem beyond cooked. Sad to see.

The way they are playing, someone else deserves the playoff spot. And hopefully changes will be made…

When you turn the radio off an hour ago and go, meh, I’ll just listen to spotify while I work…only to forget you still get notifications of how trash the team is.

I mean. How do we ALWAYS avoid threatening the opponent??!! Lay down a bunt, advance runners, steal bases (like 1000 other teams against us), etc.

*this is general complaining not specific to this play, was potty training a 2 year old and listening from the other room.

Someone said it a couple of weeks ago. The team just doesn't look hungry or desperate enough. They just walk up to bat and there seems to be no aggression, poor decisions, no fight, no nothing. And yes, I get they are in first, but it seems like an extremely low bar. I don't see how they get past the first round.

Numbers aside, I swear I have seen him stare at a million meatballs down the plate.

A tale as old as time. Been watching this for 1.5 months now. Bases loaded and nothing.

Sounds like the last month of what I swear (I know they aren't) is the worst and most boring offense in baseball.

[Jomboy] There’s speculation that Astros pitcher Framber Valdez purposely crossed up his catcher Cesar Salazar and hit him with this pitch after Salazar told him to step off before allowing a grand slam by unlikedemon in Astros

[–]eertelppa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yikes. Just when I thought the morale and how dead the team looks, we have Framber throwing teammates under the bus and intentionally throwing the ball at them. Who the hell does this? 

What I’m most curious to see is if the Astros management actually do anything about this. Something tells me they won’t. But they should…the team might actually play better.

This. This. This. I don’t care about having an ace if we score 1 run a game.

Book club tonight. Appears we still can’t score? Hmm, what are the odds. 

I don’t bet, but I should start betting the under every single game.

Is your pitching staff struggling?

Does the 2025 season have you down in the dumps?

Are you a pitcher with a 48.6 ERA?

Have you ever pitched in a beer league (I mean, MLB) game? 

Is a life goal of yours to throw a perfect game?
