Just like I predicted. 

On cue after 3 straight losses.

smh

All I can say is that’s how baseball goes sometimes. I’ll still take my Astros against anybody. Win, lose, or draw, I’ll still take them. Cleveland has a good hitting club. They went down and hit good pitches, which is not on the pitcher.

I agree.

I would hate to live in negativity like some obviously do.

Source: The Astros are calling up No. 1 prospect Brice Matthews to join the team Friday, MLB. com has learned. Matthews is slashing .283/.400/.476 with 10 homers, 39 RBIs and 25 steals at Triple-A, while playing mostly 2B. Matthews was set to play in Futures Game.

AggiesAreWe, obviously you struggle reading people’s posts

The post started with how the Astros were playing good baseball and how the 3 mentioned players were good on defense

The statements that were also true was that Brown and Hader had their worst performances of the season. The Astros vs Cleveland did not hit well at all with runners on base. The final truth was that the 3 players mentioned are struggling big time at the plate

These are observations about the Cleveland series, nothing more and nothing less

For some unknown reason you want to act like everything is negative with my post. The fact is, you are not going to score many runs when you struggle at the plate with runners in scoring position

My point was we don't hear from you unless something negative is going on with the Astros. Then you make your presence known.

You only come around when you have opportunity to be negative therefore why you make a post after a three game losing streak and not when they were winning 28 of 38 games and playing the best in the MLB the last month.

I posted a while back that you wouldn't be heard from until Houston had a 3-4 game losing streak and well, here you are.

Yanks beat Mariners 5-4 in 10  so we still 7 up

Really no negativity in my post, simply the reason they struggled vs Cleveland 

Most people already know that Brown and Hader have been pitching very well

The main part of my post is that you can’t score many runs when you are not hitting with people in scoring position

The Astros have played 93 games and have had 88 different lineups. They still haven't used a single lineup more than twice.

Got a player named Matthews coming up for today’s game. I already can’t name them all and don’t know who is batting next. lol

Is that good coaching or overall management?  Or just pure luck?

All the above. Just shows that Houston has a good farm system and made some good deals.

Houston has dealt with more injuries to every day players and starting pitchers than any other team in MLB.

That is their #1 prospect. He played his high school ball at Atascocita.

Pretty impressive stats also.  Just maybe.
