So, about that pitching lab that kept us in the hunt for the 1st half of the season... what happened?


No reason for concern, the second half is a weaker schedule than the first

"Yordan's fine, nothing to worry about". Same vibe even though early this season was the lowest average EV of his career.

Chas should be able to fine other pitchers in Kangaroo Court if they have worst stats than him in any game.

It's a little funny that same batter is up in 9th that was up with bases loaded in 1st. If that had gone differently this would've been a completely different game.

Just 7 more hits and we can bring the tying runner to the plate

That's pretty good timing on that commercial.

They want me to buy season tickets for 2026 after watching this debacle?

I'm really liking that under 2.5 runs for the series.

wonder if Chas has been working on a few things in the pen


Honestly he might as well just work on pitching full time in the offseason

I know that it's easy to fall into "when it rains, it pours" mode…but is it time to start wondering if Espada has lost the clubhouse?

This is 6 weeks of largely abysmal play with a run differential that is drifting further and further into the negative. The injuries could be to blame for a a couple of weeks in there, but they're getting less competitive as they get healthier.

On the current trajectory, I just don't see how you can justify having Espada return next season.

this is where I am -- he's coaching for his job now

the Astros had 8 major league hitters in the lineup tonight + Melton

it's not the Space Cowboys anymore...and the team is playing worse

Lol at those thinking Joe gets fired. Should he? Maybe? But he is the same guy that had them playing well above their head when they shouldn't have been. Just don't see him getting fired but then again it's crane so who knows

Someone should kindly and most respect fully ask Espada, " what were you hoping for in putting an 0-21 (now 0-24) batter in the 4 hole?"

I know the hitting coaches get paid a few hundred k to do absolutely nothing but maybe just for ****s and giggles let's pay some other guys a few hundred k to do nothing

I wanted Espada after Dusty retired. Then I soured on him, until they made the postseason. After beating the Dodgers earlier this year, I thought he'd be candidate for manager of the year. Lately I'd be surprised if he makes it until end of the year. Can't imagine crane is too pleased.

Not counting two-way players, has a team ever had the same position player pitch three times in one week?

And if so, has any predecessor put up a zero in two or more of those games?!

Espada is toast. He's showing daily how ****ty of a manager he is. We **** the bed by not bringing in Francona when we had the chance. Espada is a joke.

If a hitting coach can't correct that in him after 3 years of trying, we should try a different hitting coach.

Looks like I didn't miss much. Any coaches with a hand in this offense need to be looking for new jobs come October
