It sure has been a horrendous stretch but I am sticking behind these guys. I firmly believe in what Lunhow and Crane are doing. We will see the Astros beome winners again and it will be all the sweeter because we kept with them.

Roger’s tune is changing a little (not to my surprise at all) when it comes to pitching in the majors again.

With Crane’s public comments and show of support I would be surprised to see him this year but expect to see him in an Astros uni again.

If yall haven't been following Uni-watch on espn.com, the Astros came in at #56 of all 122 pro sports uniforms. Here's the blurb about their ranking. Personally, I couldn't have said it better myself.

Pretty classy set. The thing is, the Stros weren't put on this earth to do classy. They're here to wear orange, to wear wacky stripes, to push the envelope. Maybe they'll go back to that next season, when they're due to have a new uni design.


I'm hoping they bring back the rainbow next year.

I hope we go back to the orange and blue colors. But please, not the rainbow.

I also wouldn't mind seeing the blue and gold make a comeback

Was it last weekend they wore those? The weekend before? I can't really remember. I do remember that they wore them all weekend, not just on Friday. And I sat there thinking, damn, those things really look good. Much better than I thought they looked way back when. I certainly wouldn't mind bringing those back.

We wore them last weekend and nearly swept the Brewers, and I agree, they looked good. Brought back good memories too.

I just want to see us abandon the pinstripes and current color scheme. Get back to our roots

Don't worry. We're going to have to rely on our bullpen to hang on to this lead for at least 3 more innings. Still plenty of time for us to blow it

We can't even lose to Los Mets to break a record. That's a special kind of awful.

I'm happy for Jordan Lyles. Kid pitched a great game tonight and definitely deserved a win.

oh my, a victory on the road!

sidenote...the manager of the Mets should be fired. The astros are 4-0 vs NYM...and 36-86 vs. everybody else

Buster Olney is reporting that the Giants are interested in acquiring Pearce from us. Get on it Luhnow!

Steve Pearce. We claimed him off waivers about a month ago. Here is a link:

I'm glad Lyles got the win yesterday. The kid has been knocked around this season and could really use the confidence boost. I really hope he can get it figured out and be a strong part of this teams future.

Definitely need to trade Pearce. Good waiver claim by Luhnow, turning nothing into an asset.

Why is Brandon Barnes leading off? I feel like we've had just as many stupid lineups under Tony D as we did with Mills

Because he is fast and hit for a lot of contact in okc. With altuve sitting.. who the hell else do you put there?
Houston Summit

Tyler Greene or Marwin would be better IMO. Barnes hasn't made hardly any contact since he's been in Houston
