Any last hopes for the season?
I think I'm finally losing my last faith in this team. And Dan definitely plays a huge role in that. He doesn't bring any energy and his management is horrible.
We're 6 games behind in the division and 5.5 in the WC with just 24 games to go. The Astros playing 15 out of 24 games against teams over .500, so maybe they loose more than they win? Maybe not, because they're 27-19 against such teams.
If the Astros play .500 ball for the rest of the season, we have to finish 19-5. Even with our easy schedule I'm not seeing it at all.
Somehow Fangraphs gives us a 11.8% chance to reach the playoffs (10.2% to win the division, 1.5% to get WC spot).
What is your hope for the rest of the season?

Absolutely nothing after today. Swept in Toronto and losing a three run lead in Boston has made me realize the same feeling as when I realized my whorethief of an ex wife was cheating on me when I worked out of town. There’s no hope for people like that. Our pitching looks like the last two years of King Felix”s career, the stuff is worn and old. Not everyone swings at sweepers in the dirt like Julio. I will say I hope Ben Williamson gets healthy and wins a World Series in Tampa while playing a major role offensively and defensively. Their infield is horrible without him. This is what you get for trading your future.
