Carlos Lee:
"Today was probably the only game so far that we were out of it, pretty much. The first series against San Francisco (which the Giants swept), the pitchers did great and kept us in the game. ... As an offense, I really don’t know what’s going on."
Mills:
“We’re in a situation where we have to be real, too; they’re two good ballclubs (Giants and Phillies), and we do have some inexperience. But at the same time, we want to have good, solid at-bats in certain situations, and you’d like to have your pitchers at least be able to do some things that you can point your finger at. We’re better right now, (but) things just haven’t fallen into place.”
Note: This is a good point. The Astros haven't laid down to Padres and Nationals. These are two teams expected to go to the playoffs.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
