2022 Houston Astros Thread
Castro's contract is up at the end of this season. Maldy's is up after the 2023 season. Would make sense for him to be called up to the big leagues full time next season. Gets to spend a full year with Maldy and the pitching staff while catching only every 4th or 5th game.

2022 PGA Championship at Southern Hills
- Jordan in good form to take another swing at the Grand Slam - Scottie also in good form and playing one of his favorite courses - Cat is back and appears to be healthier and stronger every day - No defending champion - Rory quietly playing well, and would seem to be a good fit for this track - Seemingly under the radar: Morikawa, DJ, Koepka, Rahmbo, Cam Smith, Hovland

I love crooked number innings. Starting to come together, Pepper.

2022 Houston Astros Thread
So, last night's game has been modified to a 7-inning game and will continue from where it left off. Then a full 9-inning game will start 30 minutes after the end of the first game. Do I have that right?

Or, remain just enough to win based on the pitching performance.

Homemade Pizza Tips...Just the Tips
For oven made pizzas, I have two ovens. I use the smaller of the two and put the pizza stone in that. I preheat at 550 (highest it will go) for an hour. 10 minutes before I throw the pie in, I turn on the broiler above the stone to get it really hot, then turn back to Bake 550. Cook the pizza, remove it. Then I turn the broiler back on for a few minutes while I prep the next pie. Turn back to Bake 550. Rinse repeat. They come out great with the some good scorching on the bottom crust.

Blastfurnace 2022
Educate me on this. Is this necessary? Is it done annually. Outsource or weekend project? I have only bought new homes before, so it never really crossed my mind to have the units serviced.

2022 Houston Astros Thread
I got to assume this is Dusty's last year. Is it a given that Espada is the next manager? What's AJ's contract situation like after this year? (half joking).

Elite private schools and college admissions
Thanks for this. Is there a consensus source for the "rankings"? US News and World Reports? I would be interested in seeing the schools this book considers 1-150.

What savings scheme do you use for a kid?
As an addition to a 529, I also have a little savings account for nothing in particular that I established when they were born. Could be for study abroad, eventual wedding, grad school, who knows. $100 twice per month (1st & 15th) automatically drafted. When they hit a birthday, I add $10 to that amount. So, when they are 18, I'm contributing $280 twice per month to their savings account. Easy annually adjustments to me, automatic transfers, and it adds up to around $86k for a safety net for them (or you, if needed). You could probably could even get more bang if it was invested in a bonds or something.
