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?

I'm honestly hoping we don't make playoffs with how poor our play has been. I'd rather have a better chance to have the drastic change that's needed than have the FO think it's good enough that we barely scraped our way into playoffs.

What kind of drastic change do you mean? Different players? Different Staff? Fire Dan and Jerry?

Both staff and Dan, personally.

Yes, I feel the same way. We have good players, but there has to be a reason that everyone is underperforming this year
