    astros have no business of destroying any teams.

    that is why they are at where they are with the current record

    Should've taken him out Joe. He didn't look good.

    Joe manages like we are 7 games over .500 instead of under .500.

    you tip your cap to the pirates

    they are hitting pitches in the zone

    that is why burrows is scared to throw strikes

    Mike Burrows has not worked out.

    His pitches lack movement when they're in the zone. Easy to hit.

    Burrows is one of the reasons why we can't have nice, shiny things now

    Can we fire this idiot already?

    He should have pulled him after the leadoff walk. At that point dude had allowed ten baserunners in 5 innings including 4 walks. Letting him pitch to Cruz there is just straight up malpractice. Then this idiot lets him walk another batter after that. It’s just unbelievable how stupid Joe is.

    The bullpen is relatively rested, right? Why get greedy with Burrows who showed he lost it. Joe manages with blind hope trying to squeeze every inning possible. He doesn't believe what his eyes show him.

    Dana really mailed it in and half-assed theF out securing a SP in the rotation— regardless if he has the most appearances, he netted us a SP5 if not SP6.

    Damn training & pitching staff couldnt put weight & bulk him up… Miller work his magic….?? No?

    I would say it's inexplicable but he just seems to have zero feel for the situation. Makes me wonder if he thought Burrows had to face three batters.......

    Joe focused on pitch count instead of hitters coming up.

    Yes rested, there was ZERO ****ing reason to do what Joe did....he looked like **** and should've been yanked at the walk.
