I don't think that's really fair. New ownership came in and invested heavily in scouting, development and analytics. They were awful when they bought the team and instead of spending money to get mediocre quickly they kept their powder dry for when the young players matured and were ready to compete. To me, that's how you do it.
As for this series the one thing that concerned me was the bats going cold. It can happen to any team. Astros haven't hit the whole series and if it doesn't change Thursday, this dream season will be over.
