The starting rotation is definitely going to struggle with all the injuries to start the season.

Top of the order didn't do anything yesterday. Dubon looked slow getting tagged out at home. Pressly didn't give his usual outing.
New manager is sorting things out.........hopefully

Poor pitching and stranded base runners led to 7-1 loss last night.

Stranded base runners are probably the thing the Astros are best at

It’ll take’em awhile to get their signs worked out, be patient…they’ll come around

Has any team ever gone 0-162?
At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR

68, you are hanging tough. You start your own thread about your team and you know full well its gonna catch some flack. I counted 8 to 10 times you had to bite your tongue, so far. Credit for knowing when you go out in the rain, youre gonna need an umbrella. Astros fans should be proud of you.
BTW, I have no problem cheering for the Astros when Im not cheering for the Rangers.

Thanks Free, been a fan since mid 60’s. Before TV, had to listen on the radio. First game I attended at the Astrodome, Colt .45 stadium was still standing in the parking lot. Saw Nolan Ryan’s first game as an Astro up in the $2 seats. Nolan hit a homer his first at bat with the Astros. And stuck with them through the 3 consecutive seasons of 100+ losses.
Astros up 5-0 tonight after 4 innings. Hoping they can hold the lead.
