My guy was Gerald Young in 1987 for the Astros. The year after they went toe to toe with the Mets in the NLCS
In a half season he hit .321 with 26 stolen bases. Fast centerfielder. Expected big things going forward.
His stats - and value - decayed from that 1st season.
There was a Shaggy poster that was infamous for proudly posting a picture of his “cooked” bacon.
I just know I want it cooked more than that
I hope he didn’t die from the ptomaine.
Yeah, I was watching that live and did a double take. Had to rewind to see if he really said what I thought I heard.
That was awesome. Hinch rivals Bregman in the arrogance department. I love it.
Yeah, I was talking about LAST year. Right.
No. I heard somewhere around these parts that Marisnick wasn’t worthy of a roster spot.
So far, THIS YEAR, he’s proving that theory wrong.
I don’t know.
I read somewhere that Mike Khrushchev-ski sucked shit through a straw for his first 4 years at Duke.
The rest is history.
Seeing as he has sucked shit through a straw for 4 years, Shaka is obviously about to go on a 40-year run of excellence. Right? Right?
As a young man I used to go to a lot of Astros games in the Dome. In the late ‘70’s I could sit in the Yellow section directly behind home plate for $3. Pretty high up, but a good perspective.
Saw Ken Forsch pitch a no-hitter in the second game of the season in 1979 from up there.
Good times, indeed.
