0-7? really? Are you serious? This has to be one of the most embarrassing displays of baseball I've seen in a really long time. Six of these games were home games against San Fransisco and Philadelphia. The other was at St. Louis.
I'm an Astros fan. I know how the season typically goes. Play mediocre until there is about 5 weeks left in the season then all of a sudden play with some kind of intensity that comes out of no where, leaving you thinking "Where the heck was that all season long." I'm sorry but right now I don't think all the intensity in the world can save the Astros this season. They have already become the laughing stock of the season. From showing error after error, to comparing their entire season so far to one game for the D-Backs, ESPN has not been shy about labeling the Astros the worst in the MLB thus far.
The 'Stros are on pace to have the worst start in MLB history. In 1988 the Baltimore Orioles set this benchmark, starting the season 0-21. 33% of the way to the worst start in MLB history is a little embarrassing.
Maybe I'm just being sensitive. Maybe it's nothing to worry about. I sure hope so. I guess it's just hard knowing at any point in the season that you might be worse than the Nationals...
I too am an Astros fan, due to my grandfather's admiration of the team. Again, I'm not a big sports fan, but during baseball season, if i'm at my grandparents' house, there's likely to be an Astro's game going on for some reason. I've watched them plenty on TV, and even saw them play when I was a little kid.
ReplyDeleteI just hope they don't set a new record for worst start in MLB history :(! 0-21! holy shit!!
I've watched at least two innings of all these games. I want to cry...I want to cry...
