Are the Houston Astros in PANIC mode? | Chandler Rome 

I don't trust that Singleton can keep this up either. What Dana Brown and the FO should be doing right now is NOT expecting for Abreu or Singleton to be the answer. Singleton also played poorly last season. 1st base should have been addressed in the offseason. They should be trying to address it right now. The people running this organization are the biggest problem. They are clueless

I hear ya Scott. Is this a Cespedes similar thing with abreu? I'm not concerned with the team and they are professionals and hopefully resilient.

Jose is not a great player , that’s why he went down. It was a stupid deal decided by Bagwell.

You had to wait 7 years and an injured bullpen to say that 😆

You root for a team with Integrity like the Yankees?

This is the biggest problem they have. That is why the organization is where it is

Oh yeah and there's only a 132 games left definitely not enough time to make up some ground.

He does a good job covering them tho

I’ve never liked Chandler. A lot of media folks have beef with him

Why would they need to spin anything? He either pitches multiple innings or he doesn’t. Doesn’t need to be a thing. He was signed as a closer. Ryan Pressly didn’t typically pitch multiple innings when he was our closer.

@@Nicholas-HTX Will see how many times he will be willing to pitch multiple innings, if necessary. Than will find out if the organization was telling the truth about Hader. I don’t care whether Pressly was used a certain way or not before but, there’s been more than one time that it would have made sense to run Hader out there for another inning but instead chose to use their bad bullpen.

@@Andrew-kx2ek you a Padres fan?

@@Nicholas-HTX A Padres fan, please don’t make me laugh! Ur right, maybe they shouldn’t use Hader for more than an inning like u said. Use him like u said Pressly was used before. Especially since he still gave up a run in his last game….👍🏼

This is what Hader said on April 30th: Joe Espada said the coaching staff approached Josh Hader about going another inning and, according to Espada, Hader replied “I want it.” “Thats something I don’t really like doing,” Espada added or throwing Hader two innings. This is what Hader said on May 1st: "Obviously, we need to win ballgames, right? And I think with me having a long resting period leading into this series, it made sense. And obviously, I felt good enough to go for the second inning . That was the biggest thing. This year my expectations were to be able to be available for multiple innings."

Baker took over a team that had won 100 games in THREE consecutive seasons, and had made 2 World Series appearances in 2 of those 3 seasons. The Astros under Baker's first season, lost the division and had a losing record too. The team hasn't been the same since 2022 when James Click left and Crane started listening to Bagwell

The problem is our GM and owner aren’t making rebuild type moves. We’re good on paper, just can’t put it together on the field

Keeping receipts. 😂
