  1. He got ejected for nothing, didn’t make a scene, and walked back into the dugout with his tail between his legs? Is our manager a little bitch?

  2. Hard to imagine we won a ring just 2 years ago. We play like a team that is rebuilding.

  3. Im not gonna be spending a cent on this team this season.

    I care too much about the direction of team to show support by giving them my money.

  4. People need to be fired

    The look they just showed Altuve’s face was just making, it’s like he knows it’s going back to the way it was during his early days

    This is so sad and pathetic. Bagwell doesn’t need to show his face anymore, go retire and be with your family. Just like Biggio does!

  5. The Houston sports gods sacrificing the Astros for the Texans’ success?

  6. What the fuck is wrong with this team. The starting pitching? I get it. Injuries everywhere.

    We’re incapable of stringing three hits together any more?

  7. Someone needs to go into that clubhouse and light their asses on fire as a whole. I’m talking throwing chairs around old school Jim Leyland style just go apeshit. Hold people accountable. This is unacceptable.

  8. See y’all down south boys. Where the stoppable force meets the moveable object.

  9. I got crushed for saying this team might be a sneaky 65 win team and I deserved it, I overshot by 20 wins.

  10. What a dreadful start, while there is faith that the season can be turned around… starting off like shit can cost you.

    The rangers played like shit down the stretch last year, but snuck into the playoffs simply by starting off hot and managed to win the title.

    I know that the Astros are tough in the postseason, but they can’t afford to fuck around like this….

  11. I think time has come for me stop watching them. My blood pressure just boils over mental mistakes, baserunning blunders, all or nothing approach at the plate. Not one aspect of the team is functional right now, not one. Hitting, pitching, defense, management, ownership and whatever the hell Bagwell has been doing

  12. Altuve looking depressed after that one. Has his best start to a season of his career and the rest of the team has turned to shit

  13. I think this is easily the worst team to watch in Astros history. At least when watching the 100 loss teams from 2011-2013 you knew they were bad and had low expectations. This team finds ways to lose games through every facet, not just one unit blows games. 5 Runs in a series deserves a sweep. If we can’t sweep the Rockies in a 2-Game Series in Mexico it’s curtains on the season, please tell me I’m wrong because I’m free to argue this afternoon.

  14. Well I hope Jeff Bagwell and Reggie Jackson will take a pay cut or finally retire when MMP is empty and Crane’s ran out of goodwill from 2022

  15. Loperfido needs to get called up like yesterday. I don’t care about his strikeout rate. I don’t care about how much we’re paying Abreu. I don’t care about how good or bad Singleton is playing.

    Get some fresh blood in this lineup. Change everything until something fucking works. This is beyond unacceptable.

  16. Fire Jeff Bagwell into the fucking sun. I’m so tired of this “Baseball is played by humans, not numbers” bullshit this motherfucker has infected our organization with. OUR BEST PERIOD EVER WAS OFF THE BACK OF ANALYTICS YOU STUPID FUCK! Fucking Easterby-adjacent dumbass. Completely ruined his legacy already, I don’t even want to see him near the stadium.
