For some perspective...

The Astros started 36-24 last year. Starting June 6, over their next 96 games — a massive sample — they were 49-47.

They shouldn't be as comically bad as they are now, that's a mental funk, but I'm not betting on them to magically flip a switch, either. Combine everything from June 6 onward — end of regular season, postseason, and start of this season — they're 67-72. In 139 games!

I just have a hard time getting worked up over this. The signs have been there for a while. They're just not very good, period. It is what it is.
