2026 Astros

[rupert3]

Is this our annual year end skid???  I hope not.  Only plus I seen last night was Pena going 3 for 4 and not scoring, also Diaz hr.  Still pulling for them until the end.

Arlington won so Houston now tied but has tiebreaker. 

10 games remaining. 

Astros are now 1 game back of final wild card spot.

Got to have a win tonight and hope to win at least 1 vs. Atlanta over the weekend before heading out on the road for last 6 games.

[rupert3]

4 dingers already with Alvarez number 40 and Pena another one Varsho and Wade

5-0 bottom 6

[rupert3]

Trammel added a dinger in the 8th 6-2 Pecko wins 5 home runs tonight.  Maybe that will fire nthem up.  Arlington leading

[baddog]

Boston 4-3, bot 8th, 1 out.

[myrecordwashorrible]

Go Red Sox!!  4-3 win. 

[AggiesAreWe]

Astros now lead by 1 (2 with tiebreaker) with 9 to play.

Magic number is 7.

Houston and Arlington are tied but Astros have tiebreaker. 8 games remaining. 

Magic number remains 7.

Houston definitely needs a win this weekend vs. Atlanta and then hopefully go at least 4-2 in final 6 on the road.

[rupert3]

We lose Arlington wins full game back.  Lost by a Grand Slam again major bullpen blow IMO

[AggiesAreWe]

If we don't get a win tomorrow, we may have to go at least 5-1 on the road in final 6 games.

[baddog]

Abreu likes them bases loaded.

[Razor]

They may well need that tiebreaker...game behind the Rangers now

[spidersal]

Well I see that the Astros put King in again. That basically makes me think that they don’t care about making the postseason In my opinion, I think when King comes in, he thinks he is playing for the opponent

[spidersal]

Win 5 of the last 6 or sit at home again

[rupert3]

I guess that is why they didn't pick me as manager, King and others would have been long gone, but we just not hitting to counteract bad pitching and leaving too many on base certainly doesn't help.  Lose 4=2  Can't win with 2 or 3 player hitting.

Jays leading Arlington 7-2 in bottom 7 so maybe yjr same.

[myrecordwashorrible]

Was surprised to see King as well. Not sure what the bullpen availability was for today's game, but surprised nonetheless.  

 

[rupert3]

Jays win 7-2 over Arlington  So still some hope,

Remaining 6 games for Houston:

Tuesday at Seattle (72-83)

Wednesday at Seattle

Thursday at Athletics (61-94, eliminated)

Friday at Athletics

Saturday at Athletics

Sunday at Athletics

 

Arlington schedule

Tuesday Mets (71-85, eliminated)

Wednesday Mets

Thursday Mets

Friday at Twins (72-83)

Saturday at Twins

Sunday at Twins

 

Astros are also 2 games back of final wild card spot. Safe to say it's division win or bust.

IMO we can do no worse than 4-2 in these last 6 or it's over. 3-3 probably puts us a game out.
