A previous version of this OP inaccurately stated Sketti was tonight's starting pitcher. It has been updated to accurately reflect Jean-Patrick Francois as the starter. We regret this mistake.

For people seeking hope and optimism…

quote:

Last season we went:

• ?7-9 to start the season
• ?3-7 from Apr 28-May 8
• ?7-14 from Jun 4-27
• ?4-8 from Aug 13-25
• ?9-14 from Sept 1-26

We still won the division. Record looks bad now because we started the season with it, but this team has the capability of going on a run.




For people looking to pour fuel on the fire and deepen the pessimism:

The Astros Are Rapidly Digging Their Hole Deeper and Deeper from Fangraphs



FWIW I don’t blame anyone for feeling either hopeful or doom and gloom. In fact, I wish I was more of an optimist

Pretty damn hard not to feel like everything is complete shite and will continue to be complete shite, but a tiny part of me says until this core of players has a season that they don’t make the playoffs then I shouldn’t count them out.
