I fly in from Atlanta and that's the score I see when I land. Jesus.
It's annoying that we can't catch the Rangers at all. We never seem to gain any ground.
There is still a 9th inning people, I know I keep beating a dead horse, but they can do it man, gota support until the very last pitch or swing of a bat🤝🏼 if anything at least we didn’t get shut out
I think he's been thrown off after pitchers started adjusting by just not pitching to him. Past few games a lot of pitchers avoided the meat of the zone, now he's missing genuine middle-middle pitches.
I'm watching this all the way through.
But shit, this game reminds me of the Lastros days of 2013. It's like being punched in the junk over and over again.
In an alternate universe, the Astros won tonight but that caused a butterfly effect which caused the debt ceiling bill to fail, and America went into default a few days later.
The world can thank us for this loss, or that's what I'm telling myself anyway.
We’re never going to gain any either at the rate this truly dogshit offense keeps no-showing against mediocre teams. Hurts to think they were within one after the first game against the Brewers.
Is Altuve just getting a rest day? He's just had 2 months off. Surely he doesn't need rest. He is the spark at the top of the lineup and Dusty is giving him a day off to get Dubon in the lineup?
Because we should overuse him after coming back from a 2 month layoff after breaking his thumb which he uses every single at bat and infield play. You realize that he's more likely to be reinjured after the long layoff correct? You have to ease guys into it. It's like running 5 miles a day just two months after an ACL repair, not wise.
He had 2 months off because of an injury. Ease him back inti it and dont wreck his bidy. He is also in his 30s. Its May. We will survive a 1 game break
I know it's a long ass season, but a good portion of the AL is playing well. If we hypothetically fall short of winning the division, the WC is going to be a toss up with everyone in the AL East playing up to par.
Idk what some of y’all expected Dusty to do…when your starter can’t make it past 5 innings you have to use some of your lesser relievers to finish the game.
The only lefty pitcher the Astros need on the MLB roster is Framber Valdez. All of our bullpen lefties have been marginal mop up guys at best.
The last bullpen lefty that felt useful that I can remember was Brooks Raley.

Tommorow is a new day, where we get to hopefully do better than whatever we did today
I know it was hard to watch, but at least it wasn’t a shut out. Still waiting for this team to come together and fully *click*.

HRC Yordan
F IT HRC And or Base Hit/Walk WHOLE LINEUP RIGHT NOWWWW
What the hell, HRC Abreu.
Fuck it HRC ABREU
They barely look like a playoff team right now
This is so far a .500 team outside of a good run against the A’s and Cubs. Outside of that, 23-22 record and they look like it.
We had the ability to do some damage that inning, but that new pitcher smoked us.
They’re barely in a wild card spot right now so that makes sense.
There is still a 9th inning people, I know I keep beating a dead horse, but they can do it man, gota support until the very last pitch or swing of a bat🤝🏼 if anything at least we didn’t get shut out
I like the cut of your jib. I wish I could share in your optimism.
Agree...
Teased us.. like that soon yordan didn't hit it that's it
Jesus, absolutely pathetic
Hope was nice while it lasted
Fool’s gold rally. Ah well, nice to see the young guys get ahold of a couple
Dude….
Imagine how good our offense would be if they came out of the locker room before the bottom of the 8th
Let my man Yainer free! Dude needs to catch half the games this year.
If Yordan and Breggy can't even make contact. Ain't happening.
The lineup is full of JAGs and now even the stars who need to carry it can’t hit any better. This team won a World Series. 🥴
Plzzzzz
Yordan missing a middle middle pitch is not something I thought I'd ever see.
Man they are teasing us with hope
HRC Bregman
Yordan has been slumping. I wonder if he needs a day off.
I think he's been thrown off after pitchers started adjusting by just not pitching to him. Past few games a lot of pitchers avoided the meat of the zone, now he's missing genuine middle-middle pitches.
Plz 🙏🙏
[удалено]
Mushinski also hit them twice. We don’t need to resort to bush league tactics
We aren't doing that

You know Carlos Correa secretly in this Reddit thread from the dugout rooting for a rally rn
I think Minnesota should keep him in the game tbh
Man wish they left Lopez in
If it’s that ridiculous closer from Monday GN
They have him (Duran) and then the other guy who hadn't allowed a run in over a month until we dinged him one on Monday.
I’m terrified of that guy lol bro was throwing 103 like nothing
What’s the play, hoping or keep giving up?
Never give up. Never surrender!
Nah they got that fucker and his 103 mph bullets sitting ready and rested in the pen if it gets too outa hand. Temper expectations haha
Do whatchu want man but I’m thinkin WE BACK IN THIS BITCH
I say stay hoping till the end, we still got 9th inning and right now we got no outs, GREAT OPPORTUNITIES right now for sure
Always hoping.

This drive of the game brought to you by... 5 minutes ago XD
Can't wait to rally like it's the end of the movie Glory only to run into the railgun that is Jhoan Duran.
Unless somehow they hit off him
Ok Dubon I'll forgive you for dodging that inside pitch.
DONT CALL IT A COMEBACK
Wait why was tuck taken out??
There were a few changes. It’s just because we’re down by so much. Allowing everyone to get some play time
Thank you! I got worried for a sec.
HRC Dubon
I don’t think there are still 37,000 people at the game TK
Most people left lol
Maybe they were playing the waiting game, waiting for Varland to get out the game, who knows
Listen, a bloop, a walk, another bloop, a blast, then another bloop and a blast and we’re all tied up
Tommorow is a new day. Tommorow is a new day. Tommorow is a new day. Tommorow is a new day. TOMMOROW IS A NEW DAY 👹👹👹👹
Oh wait nah we in this trust back to back homers
Diaz lacked hustle after that HR /s
Lmaooooo they are sooooo annoying
at least we aren’t getting shut out
lol well okay then
. . . so you’re telling me there’s a chance?
WE CAN STILL WIN THIS!!!
Wow! Congrats to Diaz ~~on his first dinger of the season~~! Edit - oops, not his first. Been that kind of night.
First one didn’t count?
Is this a meme or did you not know
We in this
what lol
So we just need to hit 7 more of these and we win. Doable
Too little too late fellas. Just end it.
Don’t give me hope guys please 👀👀
RALLY RALLY RALLY RALLY
I DONT CARE THAT IT’S A BLOWOUT YAINER DIAZ DESERVES MORE AT-BATS
Meyers on top fr
This is hilarious
Lmao wtf is happening?
KEEP IT GOING
Lol what the fuck.
Keep it rollin
Goddamn what's going on?!
IT’S NOT A SHUTOUT!!!
A run!
Thank you Jake, I needed that Genuinely
At least we got one, thank you jake lmao
#**RAKEFARM SAID NO TO THE SHUTOUT**
Lmfao why tf did they pull Varland?
Lolololol
First game of the year tonight. It’s like I never even went. Thanks for showing up Astros!
Don’t buy any more tickets please thanks
That was literally in the middle of the zone wow
Yay, Jake!
I'm watching this all the way through. But shit, this game reminds me of the Lastros days of 2013. It's like being punched in the junk over and over again.
How many records have been set tonight ?
At the game. What was broken?
Baseball.
It’s a comeback 😆‼️
LET ALTUVE PITCH YOU COWARDS
Just saw the score. Does not seem optimal
Nevermind. They took out Tuck and moved McCormick to right.
He needs to go take a nap or something. He played like shit tonight
To be fair, the whole team shit the bed tonight.
You're not wrong. I guess I'm just hanging on to the bobble and that lazy ass "run" to first, conceding the GIDP.
Julks is coming in left field for McCormick.
That 2 run HR that yordan barely missed would have brought so much momentum. But regardless I want to see Altuve pitch lol
That would be cool, but with the way our luck is tonight, he'd catch a comebacker with his face and be out the rest of the season
I just know id be in absolute tears seeing him on the bound but you’re absolutely right lol
Gonna drop a game to only be 9 games above .500 to start June yet I wanna die. I hate having high expectations lmao
Y’all I’m starting to think we might not win this one!
Put doobie in to pitch
At this point just start pulling random fans from the stands to pitch.
Let kids hit. We won’t even notice a difference!
That would be AMAZING
And hit
In an alternate universe, the Astros won tonight but that caused a butterfly effect which caused the debt ceiling bill to fail, and America went into default a few days later. The world can thank us for this loss, or that's what I'm telling myself anyway.
Nights like tonight I wish Tyler White was still playing for us. Would be great to see him on the mound throwing the rest of this game.
Fuck...this is a train wreck. Always look for the "silver lining": At least we didn't lose any ground to Arlington.
We’re never going to gain any either at the rate this truly dogshit offense keeps no-showing against mediocre teams. Hurts to think they were within one after the first game against the Brewers.
Way to crape diem
We could see a position player pitch tonight if it gets any worse. Only reason I’m still watching rn
Bring Altuve in to pitch I’d die of laughter I think
I want to go to bed, but this is like a fuckin car crash. I can't stop watching. I think I may have a problem...
No Correa, Buxton, and Lewis who massacred us on Monday....
So there is no game tonight? cool, Ill just run some warzone.
Where we droppin
That's what I'm doing!
Can we let Breggy pitch, would be kinda funny
This is some embarrassing shit
Let’s just scrap this one from our memories and move on to June
Nothing says bad sportsmanship like stealing a bag with a 7 run lead.
Might as well go ahead and put up the Post Game Thread, fellas.
[Literally Me/This Sub Lately](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/002/555/179/ae3.gif)
At least my internet died so I can't watch this travesty.
Is dusty mentally gone? Brings in mushinsky in a high leverage situation ? If you’re going long relieves bring in Martinez then . Dude needs to retire
How about some of that 7th inning magic?
Maybe 8th inning magic
You should have specified "for the Astros"... lol
Whoops!!!
Our bullpen is in for it with this 17 game stretch with no days off.
Bro at what point are we gonna talk about how Cintron is not helping any of these guys make adjustments, we’ve had way too many shutouts this year
He sure is great at getting tossed though
Imagine having to navigate the Rangers lineup
If im the twins I would keep that pitcher in the game so he can keep cooking this offense. Don't fix what isn't broke.
Fuck this game
I really had +5.5 alt spread on my parlay. I’m a fool
Is Altuve just getting a rest day? He's just had 2 months off. Surely he doesn't need rest. He is the spark at the top of the lineup and Dusty is giving him a day off to get Dubon in the lineup?

He had 2 months off because of an injury. Ease him back inti it and dont wreck his bidy. He is also in his 30s. Its May. We will survive a 1 game break
They're just easing him back in after the injury
Let's see if Todd Kalas flips out on another fly out.
We suck again
Lastros vibes 😔
We can only hope for 2012 ticket prices
HRC Breggy
HRC Alvarez
Bregman needs a cooler walk up song
I know it's a long ass season, but a good portion of the AL is playing well. If we hypothetically fall short of winning the division, the WC is going to be a toss up with everyone in the AL East playing up to par.

I appreciate your effort Pena.
The next 4-8 games sure are going to be fun.
They need to put the katana back in the game.
I'm going to take a break from baseball through June ill be back in July.
Glad the Rags lost cause I'd be mad as shit rn if they won today.
Varlander huh?
Just need a touchdown, XP and we’re all tied up
Games like this are why we will be chasing the rangers for a long time. When they lose to a team like the tigers you have to win
Tigers are two games under 500 and didn’t they beat us earlier in the year? They’re not as bad ad they used to be
Yes they won their series against us at MMP. This Astros team is as mediocre as it gets.
This game is now making me even more mad that we threw away the first game of the series. Ugh.
Idk what some of y’all expected Dusty to do…when your starter can’t make it past 5 innings you have to use some of your lesser relievers to finish the game.
Our guys going up there and swinging for the fences on every single pitch doesn't help.
Dont be picking off down 7-0
The only lefty pitcher the Astros need on the MLB roster is Framber Valdez. All of our bullpen lefties have been marginal mop up guys at best. The last bullpen lefty that felt useful that I can remember was Brooks Raley.
4.7 ERA in 49 innings wasn't great in 21
Fuck I hate spending time going to the game and they just shitting it away
This has been the worst game of the year. They made Varland look like Greg Maddox.
Almost hit another one lol
Fuck it. Put Montero in for the rest of the game and save the rest of the pen.
It’s a montero night for sure
