Shocked I got this far into the game before turning it off, I hate this team

- 0-7 at home against the A's and Guardians

- got outscored like 45-6 over a weeklong span

- went 30 innings without scoring

- pantsed at home by the Rockies with the ace on the mound

Not deep playoff run caliber and not even remotely fun to watch. Wicked combo of a team.

This has been a patchwork season, but the team is getting healthy at the right time. It's sad people can't enjoy the resiliency and instead have to focus on the negative aspects.

I am not trying to be rude, but it sounds like the team is making you miserable. Just turn them off and go on with your life.

---

All of those things except the first one have happened post-deadline, I believe? It's not blameable on the AAAA players. What resiliency are we seeing in being sub-.500 in the last 10 and faceplanting weekly with one of the easiest remaining schedules in baseball? Genuine question. It's just what it is.

I agree with the above though, elite username.

I am talking the season in the totality. The last few weeks have been rough, but wear/tear and still an undesirable lineup can do that to you. The team is getting healthier every day. We need Jake back. It will be an even bigger bonus if we can get Isaac back.

It's not ideal that they're losing tonight, but it's still great to watch Yordan back at the plate. Altuve roped a ball in the first, Walker roped one as well. They were just right at someone. Lots of runners LOB, but... That is just how it goes sometimes. Outside of the E6, they haven't played badly.

Stayed off this thread tonight - not good,
We need to beat these guys at home

CFM giving up a 3 run bomb to the Athletics in the first. Other teams just dangling games in the standings if we were serious.

on one hand I understand how games like this happen, but it doesn't make it any easier to follow.

Twins also giving hope to the 2 seed cause. Imagine.

The only debate about the 2-seed is whether it will be Tigers or Blue Jays.

They should just walk Yord to lead off the inning

For those that missed out tonight, you still got a shot to get the Rockies at +260 tomorrow night

Two umpires missed Walker's K swinging.

HB is way to inconsistent to be an ace, you come out at home and get shelled by Rockies jfc

ITS

THE

ROCKIES

They are still pro players who can make plays. All you can do is make a good pitch or put a good swing on the ball. That doesn't mean it's always going to work out in your favor. There are series for a reason, and that's so the law of averages work out, and the better team usually wins the series.

Also, I am not saying Hunter was good tonight. He didn't recover from that E4 or E6 (however you want to score it) and he did hang one 0-2 pitch. The HR pitch was a dotted inside sinker. Just a better swing, though. If Altuve's ball finds a hole, it's a different game. If the error doesn't happen, it's a different game.

Walker HBP

followed by another great play by the Rockies outfield

Damn how did that swing not leave the yard...

Every ball right at them

At least these guys really showed some fight tonight against a tough opponent.

They're squaring up the baseball and showing fight. K's, weak roll-overs and pop-outs -- would be a different story -- but that's not what's happening. Doyle is fast and good in CF.

The Rockies allowed 27 runs in their previous four games.

I'm going back to wanting play road games. This team is dead at home for whatever reason.

last call for the 'stros

Dubon walks

12 baserunners tonight

Look at the bright side…our 2 best relievers, Abreu and Chas, get the night off to rest their arms.

The bright side is if Yordan bats again it'll probably be as the tying run.

Please DFA melton

0-5 in our last 5 at home against the A's and Rockies. Relentless.

But only against the Astros. They get murdered by every other team in the league.
