  2. This team is ass. When will yall realize this? It’s who they are. We aren’t the big bad dominant team anymore, just a mediocre 85 win team. Oh well 🤷‍♂️

  5. All the losing sucks and all, but what’s really bothered me is how boring a team we’ve been for 3-4 weeks.

  6. We had Alvarez and Meyers back, our two aces on the mound, and got bitched by the Rangers AAA team this series

    No excuses can be made, this is what this team is: absolute mediocrity at its finest

  7. Missed it but I can assume Altuve is still cold and the lineup switch didn’t work.

    Going for splits has not worked. Gotta keep the same lineup.

  8. does it feel like we haven’t really tried to do anything different since we’ve been playing .500 baseball following the All-Star break?

  9. Framber can never pitch again for us and that would be cool. Top four going 1-15 is certainly a key to win as well. Hard not to doom right now. 

  10. Shitty offense strikes again. Running out of games to win. Might blow the division lead by the time we play Seattle.

  12. Inconsistent as hell score 11 then barely get 2. Everything about this team screams we really don’t care just going through the motions

  14. Scoring 10+ the game before + day game + pitcher with a 4.5 ERA + shitty HPU + 13 game streak = this game

    We will have to sweep Texas later this month to prevent them from getting the silver boot.

    I have very little confidence in the Toronto series. We just need to win one tho.

    Much much needed off day tomorrow

  15. Oh yeah, the final month of the regular season is gonna be a struggle. The last thing all of us want.

  20. I don’t know what to do with this lineup where we strand people on base and our hitters can’t drive people in. We should have the RBIs when we have Yordaddy with .375 OBP, Meyers: .366 OBP, Peña: .364 OBP, and Correa: .360 OBP.

  21. This season will go down as the season of elbow inflammation, Framber shitting the bed and losing all remaining good will on his way out of town, and basically every hitter not named Pena or Yordan having a massive down year.

    Seems like everything that could go wrong has.

  22. Framber was a major key to our regular season success in 2022 and 2023. He’s been less consistent lately, but I’m always going to be a fan. Not the best outing but the bats share part of the blame for the loss.

  23. This team is completely immune to momentum.

    In either direction

    They don’t lose too many in a row but don’t win many in a row. It’s so bizarre they truly refuse to get the wheels moving.

  24. We need to sacrifice a couple of midgets or something along those lines to change momentum. I’d say puppies, but I love dogs.

  25. This team is just pathetic. Cant get a single hit Friday to drive in the runner from second for 3 straight innings and then lose today because we used up our weekly run allocation yesterday. You could’ve eliminated the rangers from basically everything with a sweep and added on to the lead against the mariners and instead just flounder and show up for one of the three games. Bravo, really excited about getting swept out of a first round playoff series. I think I’ll just watch that Dodgers series all through October because they haven’t played for shit since then.

  26. Pathetic excuse for a baseball game gotta go 12-6 @ a minimum Tuve is in a funk and Cam is killing us in time I expect him to be good but he has hit a wall bad
