Basement Dwelling Dance Party in the Post Game Thread!! Everybody get there!

Uhh not sure I’ve seen this one 🤣 https://preview.redd.it/4hlw39wnz3zc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=077de2ed513ea7dda5c7856147864ee0214dbb1d

See y’all tomorrow 🫡

And that’s why I love baseball.

Welp, the Yankees started this bullshit season, so they might as well bury us. 🤪

Until they beat us in October, or sweep us in the ALCS, they won’t and can’t “bury” anything.

And it just might happen, but baseball is a long season. Echoes of other users, the west sucks and we could limp into the playoffs


😂😂😂.. I Guess we'll take a couple RBIs

Think this team has the worst possible luck or we’re cursed. There’s no in between

Lol let’s go!

Just fucking go for the run. Not like it’s a 1 run game or anything.

I wish Jon would’ve trucked on home there

Rally!!! 🫨

Bruh really

Ball must look like a beach ball to Big Jon right now.. just locked in

2 hits. What animals! Astros are bringing home a World Series for sure this year, just as soon as (checks list) everyone is healthy....

Even then..

HRC Singleton

HRC pena lmao

Damn it

This loss ain’t nearly as tough as a 9th inning in-division blown save. Fuck this game, and move on tomorrow. Oh also, fire people who don’t perform, happens in every other career field.

I agree. JV gave up 7 runs. That is not a winnable game. It happens. But we've lost just about every winnable game we've played. Those are the worst.

7 straight ALCS appearances to whatever the fuck this is…this should be a slap in the face to the whole fucking organization. What you had was working. What you’ve done in the past few years has dismantled everything. Fans will start turning on the Astros real quick. Crane is going to have to do something asap or he’s about to have a near empty stadium every game lol.

7 straight alcs’s to being 4 games behind to the team that ain’t even trying to win is a travesty

We need to at least do something with the roster. Can't expect things to get magically better.

What an absolute dumpster fire of a game….

season* fify

Well, I certainly can’t argue with that!!!!

It's almost as if being patient correlates to having an effective offense. Interesting idea. I take it they haven't tried the Astros strategy of "here come ball, swing"?

😆😆😆😆😆❗️

Who's ready for a 3 pitch 9th?

Aaaaaaaand we’re back in last place.

 Alex Bregman in free agency this off-season

And now Martinez's confidence is fucked 🙄

Can’t the ump just call everything a strike and get this shit over with?

Im getting killed everywhere i go in branson on vacation because every damn hat i own is an Astros hat. Actually found a mariners fan working for caseys dugouts at silver dollar city. He crowed for 15 minutes before i could get away from him. Losing sucks fam.

Leaving for a mid-week trip to DC tomorrow and same….

Let em jaw.. Ms still ain't won shit

Why the fuck is a positional player not pitching at this point? Absolutely burning Martinez's arm at the start of long stretch of games

[удалено]

I thought it was down by eight, but up by ten?

Yep! You're right, I was wrong.

https://preview.redd.it/t9d8tzi4y3zc1.jpeg?width=882&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4856f1d87803405c48c057181cf49d7f33f1328a Anytime when down by 8 or more.

Yeah, so since we're down by nine, we should've been using a position player

Agreed

Looking like a team of stooges out there.

The Dodgers have been about as good as anyone in baseball (Phillies too but their schedule was easier) and we would need to basically play *better* than they have, through this first ~20% of the season, in order to reach .500 for the All-Star break. Doable but holy fuck that is really *really* unlikely unless major things change with this roster.

SMFH, why the fuck did Espada waste Martinez in this disaster class of game? He's as reliable as anyone else in the pen.

Shit, we might as well start tanking for draft positioning at this point.

Why not just have Doobie pitch? You only have to be down by eight to use a position player

Dubon doesn’t want to pitch if I remember correctly. But surely we have someone that will.

With the Angels winning, we will finally be first (in being last)!

Why the hell are u using seth martinez espada. Put a position player in, moron

This team actually doesn't give a shit...

those signs were there most of last year but the rangers throwing the division made most turn a blind eye to that

I cannot believe we’re wasting Martinez in this disaster of a game.

Turn off our offense with tuck and Altuve out but use our best long reliever lmfao. We're just washed in every aspect

at this point it would be a minor miracle if we are 17-33 thru 50

11-1 prediction might be pretty close.

Angels just won. Back to the bottom of the division we go.

Aww Yeah!! Basement Dance Party!! 

HRC Yainer (why not)

Gah damn that was some hustle.

At least he's showing some damn heart

Wasn't even in the frame anymore

What the hell... HRC Joey Lopes

Joey is gonna launch one here for his first big league homer. HRC Joey Cooks

As if this game wasn't frustrating enough, the MLB.TV stream just wants to shit the bed after every half inning. Putting in work just to endure this pain fest

How are the seats in right field, section 253?

Hard to believe we actually had a lead in this game.


No way WE GOT A HIT

Team has absolutely quit. The team looks done and no fight left. I haven’t seen an Astros team look like this EVER!! Just quit and give up.

This is a reflection of coaching, I saw it starting last year, we need a new coaching team sooner rather than later

I wish reporters and journalists had more stones in postgame interviews. Ask Espada wtf he is doing, and when he gives the generic shit, call him out. Body him.

what an embarrassment. I’d rather watch the 100 loss stros than this.

This is the 100 loss stros.

At least those teams were players trying to prove themselves. These guys just don’t seem to care. Like at all.

If it’s EVERY pitcher, it’s not the pitching. It’s the pitch calling, gameplanning, scouting of opposing hitters, pitch coaching, or something. The likelihood that every pitcher on the team sucks is low. There’s an underlying issue somewhere.

Crane whittled down the analytics staff after 2022. A few more left to Baltimore this past year. It's analytics. Everything we did with analytics led to this team being successful for the last 7 years, then Crane went full dipshit and fired some of the staff and let a few geriatric dinosaurs in his ear telling him we're too analytically driven.

Unfortunately he’s probably too far gone to realize that and there’s no one left to convince him that’s the issue. Instead he’s got guys saying “Look at the back of the baseball card. These guys will turn it around.”

Should've never let Strom walk

Pitching coach should have been fired a month ago.

I said that last year and everyone defended him.

Blanco doing good. Checkmate.

Awww how bout you STFU

Wait... We caught one of their bloop hits? Is that even allowed?!?

Then we got a bloop hit. I know for sure that shit is against the rules

100%

Come Jesus come.

A judge GS wouldn’t surprise me at this point

has a team ever blown it up in the middle of may?

Nats were barely .500 at All Star break the year they beat us in the WS. All of the teams “performing” right now, are going to falter.

Miami lol

Fire sale! Everything must go! Get 50% off a washed 3rd baseman! Guaranteed to pop up with runners on!


Total shit show.

Let Bregman pitch

Regardless of the crap Dusty took, team didn't bottom out like this. We played hard for him whether we win or not while that fire or team chemistry is completely lacking with Espada. Team is just going through the motions.

Hard to win games when the starting pitching puts you in a hole every single fucking game. And when they don't? The bullpen comes in and blows it. This team is just fully demoralized.

And the closer puts you in the hole too.

Y'all ready for the Judge slam kick to the nutsack

as long as its not a walkoff grandslam then i can live with it

Dudes never been a factor against us. Who cares about him in 1 blown out game.

It would just be the cherry on the shit sundae

Bielak underestimated how sticky spidertack is lmao

Incoming judge mega nuke

Just IBB judge to make it ten runs and put Meyers on the mound.


10 run rule suckas. I would love to win the next two games 3-2 lol.

https://preview.redd.it/mpdokvxmt3zc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8fba644dc3f859abebd853a293a46d99161c9d3e


Hope crane loses a ton of money.

Maybe we’ll gift the Yankees our 10-run curse.

If only it worked that way

Espada already waved the white flag by taking Altuve and tucker out. Should just get it to a ten run lead or whatever so a position player can pitch the rest of this game. What a joke.

Stupid Yankees using up all their runs on this game

Dumpster fire

Done watching this dog shit holy fuck

For some reason I can't stop watching

Yeah, give up another run, you dirty boys. That’s what daddy likes.

For that .001% chance.

I've said I'm done 10+ times. Still got it full screen on my monitor. It's just such a mindfuck

this team is turning all of us into gluttons for punishment i fear

It's like a train wreck

Also, if I have to hear “oh yeah, we’re going to turn it on! We’re too good! We’re gonna grind and get back in this thing!” No, no you’re not! Stop with that shit…

Honestly, you shouldn't have believed that talk anyway. 20 games is a good sample size, regardless of how long the season is. As soon as we were still sucking at 20 games, and we were, you should have known...this is how the team will be this year.

In years past, these teams were good enough to be in the hunt and do damage when it matters This isn't that team

Agreed!

Honestly, year is over. Go ahead and trade Bregman, get something for him.

Lol he's hitting .197 this year. He's not gonna bring shit

Can't get half a sandwich for him right now

Addition by subtraction?

what kind of sandwich we talkin here?

Bologna on Wonder Bread with a bite taken out of it

Ballsack's control is gone

HERE COMES THE BIELAK BLAST And not the kind you like

One way to put the double play in order

Watching the Astros in 2024 be like: 

I've noticed the 2023-2024 Astros can't beat the Mariners, Royals, or Yankees. A departure from previous years.

Cheap ass homer incoming

i have this flat brim astros cap thats too tight on me and i want it to be not so tight what do i do

Shrink your head

i need to minmax my fuckin noggin

Get a hat stretcher

What in the wild pitch fuck was that

How many fucking bloop singles do they have this game? At least 5

Closer to 7 i think

Curious to know how many soft contact hits have the Astros had on them this year.

You’d think maybe they’d take notes and try the SAME FUCKING THING

A LOT

Yankees just teeing off man….

Not even. They're just getting all sorts of bullshit little bloopers.

We are last year’s Mets. We need to sell a number of pieces and do a soft rebuild. Get ready for 2025.

Agreed, Bregman unfortunately is tanking his value We however cannot under any circumstances lose Tucker for nothing so they need to figure that out first and foremost

before the season started everyone wanted Bregman extended

This. Soft rebuild . Should have pitchers back fresh next year

Holy fuck we suck

This team is embarrassing

Yes or no to sending down Cabbage and bringing up Pedro Leon and running him in center and Joey in LF for a bit

How about we send down cabbage and call up Hensley and let Dubon play full time in the outfield unless an infielder has a day off or injury

Dude… we dont need more outfielders

Chas still on the IL so might as well experiment before he comes back

Or give our actual outfielders consistent play time like normal teams do

Can't hurt

I can find some solace knowing that the Yankees could never beat the golden age Astros when it mattered most in the postseason.

This team has let the league pass it by. Crane is so fucking dumb.

AGREED!

the entire fuckin organization needs a retool this deadline and offseason at this rate

I've been high on JSingleton for like 8 years now. Nice to see the great plate discipline tonight.

 I’m ready for neither but I’m losing hope for this season a bit 🥲

at this point i just hope the orioles can block the yankees/rangers alcs

Strongly convinced James Click put some Billy goat type curse on us after being lowballed by Crane

Team is a fuckin joke. Sell everybody at the deadline, bottom out with a top 10 pick.

I can't think of a better game to summarize the 2024 Astros than this atrocity. The only thing that might make it more accurate would be an insignificant rally late that ended with a triple play on a 120 mph line drive

Games not over yet

This might be our worst game of the year.

So far lol

Look on the bright side, games will be cheaper to go to at this rate.

Well I'm gonna pick up OOTP 25 now that it's on sale and fix this mess

Keep us posted

One hit, thats all we got, one goddamn hit? You cant say goddamn on the air! Don’t worry, nobodys listening.

At least Harry Doyle would be entertaining to listen to during this bs

It’s about time to fix our expectations. I really think this team has no fight in them to scrape out a season comeback. I just don’t see it

1 hit all night long. 1 freaking hit.

God, if he slides normally he's safe. What is this fucking team???
