Really sucks saying it after how good Framber has been for us. But we need to win games. And we can’t with him pitching. Feels like he brings the worst out of himself and everyone on the team.

No more first place
So, we’ve already gone up against God, and now we’re going up against Etsy witches.
Which deity should we try to court to our side? Allah? What is Vishna up to these days?
Would I be a bad person if I took a bit of Schadenfreude in thinking Framber’s tanking his FA value as hard as he’s tanking our postseason aspirations?
Will we win another game with Framber on the mound before his tenure is done with us?
Remember when we left a struggling Verlander off the 2024 playoff roster
Would be a shame if we extended the same grace to Framber
Took 2 of 3 from the Braves. Need to take 2 of 3 from both the Rangers and Mariners *at least*. 5-1 out of those 6 is probably needed. Probably have to go 5-1 combined against the A’s and Angels. Doable, but no margin for error any more. Players, coaches, management, all need to act like the season is on the line. No more saving people for later. No more days off for key players. Empty the tank. Get in, see what happens. Division, Wild card, doesn’t matter. Get in and go from there.
Edit: Mets just did us a solid. Now hopefully the Angels can chip in, too.
Blubaugh should start for Framber. Too late now for these predictable, almost-guaranteed meltdowns.
Framber really pulling a Will Smith right now. Generational down fall of a player in more ways than one
Very good chance the division lead is lost tonight. This is easily the biggest week of the season for them.
If they really want that division and even the postseason, they go 4-2 at the absolute least this homestand.
Very ready to not have Framber Valdez on my favorite baseball team
I know we want to blame the offense, but I really think your (supposedly) 2nd best pitcher should pitch better than the rookie opener for a bullpen day
Dogfight. These next two series are playoff series in everything but name. Hope the offense can keep up the much better AB’s. Let’s end the Rangers season
Well Rangers lose finally
At least we got our ace on the mound tomorrow
Edit also ftr 5-2 mets
Just need to forget about today and handle business against Texas and Seattle.
Mets walk it off!
How does Raleigh keep hitting home runs? Teams haven’t adjusted to him yet?
Giants give, Mets taketh away
We got framboozled.
The MVP for the Astros today is…the New York Mets!
Why can’t Framber get some elbow “soreness”? JK I don’t wish for anyone to be hurt, but I almost rather not see him pitch anymore.
It’s simple guys. Let’s just sweep the rangers and the mariners.
Astros did such a good job of making the starter work and only put up two runs against him smh
The boys have it set up in front of them, beat the two teams you’re in the race with it & finally take care of business with the two bottom feeders in the west
Time to put up or shut up
At least we won the series. Now shake this one off and find a way to beat Texas and Seattle
Angels beyond useless. But it’s the Astros’ own fault for losing the division.
We probably not making playoffs sadly.
Lol Angels are down 8-0
Look if the Mariners are gonna play at this level to take the division, fair play to them. They’d deserve it. We need to worry about making the playoffs let alone having division dreams. 2/3 against Atlanta is okay, it’s not a bad result despite having an opportunity to sweep, but with Framber slumping I guess it’s unrealistic to expect wins during his starts
I recommend everyone to just check out, enjoy some football, and not even bother looking at the Mariners and Angels game
The only games that matter are the next six. The Astros still entirely control their own destiny
Mariners are going to be 20-3 at home since the trade deadline 😮
Framberz what the hell happened to you?
Help us Jason Alexander. You’re our only hope.
If anybody from the Astros read this; for the sake of the entire city… Time to lock tf in fellas
I wonder where our aggressive offensive comes from…
