I gotta give it to Abreu. He’s really good at going opp field. He’s a master of it. He reminds me of Tony Gwynn. He can put it anywhere he wants to. He just chooses to go opposite field. To show the other players he’s better than them.

Does anybody else see characteristics of Bregman’s swing that looks like Abreus? I know Jose is 29 years older than Breggy. But it sure looks like when degenerative disk disease begins taking Alex’s back like it has with Abreu, then all of Breggy’s pop ups are going to be to the first baseman.

He got a hit. Of course it was opposite field. Not by design. He was late on the pitch. I can't remember which of ya’ll said it, but I don't think he’s hit a ball to left field since his final year with Sox.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
I see what you did there. This isn't softball, so you know.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
That just got Abreu 3 more starts.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
If you shoved a lump of coal up Abreu’s ass while he’s batting, you’d have a diamond by the 8th inning.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
Called off pitches- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
At least Singleton put some pitches toward his count- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
Yainer has caught him two of all his starts. Opening day and a couple of weeks ago. Who took Maldy’s job?- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
Yep. The team is back to where it was before Abreu exit.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
Yep. They won't show it. Crane.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
I'm flummoxed.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
Bregman popped up to the infield. It is begun.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
I'm going to flip out if that cocksucker doesn't get at least 1 hit. And if he has his shirt open and unbuttoned Im going to kill every….. I’ll leave it at that. He better get a hit. Singleton is going to struggle at DH. There is no doubt. He’s used to being on the field now.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
I know it doesn't matter but I was just thinking. Tucker obviously should be starting in right field for the All Star game this year. But we all know who’s going to be starting in right field. Which is bull fucking shit. His team mate will be in center. I just think Tuck should be recognized more- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
Jesus. Corey Julks went 2-3 with a dinger. Against the Yankees. Then he reached his glove well over the wall and saved a home run. Good for him. No ill will. Oh shit. He’s playing with Martin Rasputin Maldonado. Surely he had a part in the output. Go get you some Corey.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
I can go with you on that. But wherever the fuck he was sent and how he hit, aside from if he snuck off to the DR, I know he wasn't looking at pitches even close to what he’ll see in his first at bat back in the Show. Did he get his timing back on 84 mph four-seamers? Did he lock himself in the high speed batting cage for two weeks? Did he dump Jesus for Allah? Lets just say that I’m a little less than cautiously optimistic. I've never been an MLB team owner or a Hall of Fame first baseman with the second best batting stance/swing ever. (Griffey, Jr obviously first), but I was an extra on that Jimmy Fallon Drew Barrymore baseball love story. I was top deck row 82 at Fenway. So I kind of know a little about the game. Well actually I left after 4 1/2 hours with zero takes. So I never got my SAG card. All it would have taken me to pass on tendering an offer to Abreu would be watching him swing once in a live at bat facing a 92-95mph fastball. One swing. Pass. Move on. I don't care if he even barreled it. Pass. Describing his swing with one word? Arthritic. So I hope you are right. I will gladly accept a thorough thrashing if he ends with 28 homers and a 890 OPS. I have been wrong before. But I'm usually always right. What is Oxymoron? Thanks Ken. Good evening.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
San Francisco is waiting for him. They’ll do 10.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
Bringing Abreu back is wrong. He is a cancer. And what happens when you don't address it aggressively and early? It spreads. Breggy I'm looking at ya.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
Something tells me Tuck is not happy with the arbitration 2 years back. I think that's going to be on the back his mind. That was foolish.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
Lets get this one boys. Then we’re gonna give the Angels the beating they’ve grown accustomed to from the Astros, regardless of whether they have that overrated Trout in the lineup or not. Or Ohtani. Fucking pound them. No lube. And yes neither will be in uniform. Lol.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
I’m gonna have to go to Spotrac to see what the longest contract the Astros have ever given. My guess is that it is years less than 10. Plurally of course.- Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread
