August 15, 20205 yr With this game going the way it's going, I really just need to see Altuve get a good swing and a good result.
August 15, 20205 yr The Stros had the Killer B’s back in the day. Now we have these Y’s Guys are there any other Y name players we can get in a trade.
August 15, 20205 yr Framber Valdez is IMO the biggest positive story this season. He looks like a legit 3 or 4 WAR SP. This is someone the Astros signed for $10,000.
August 15, 20205 yr SF trying to blow a 5 run lead in the 9th over Oakland. Tying run at the plate with 1 out. EDIT - and unbelievably, Piscotty hits the GS to tie it. He had a walkoff GS already this year. Edited August 15, 20205 yr by WBT

August 15, 20205 yr I don’t remember the joke but sure as hell would have guessed he’d be the guy to go to make room for Yordan
August 15, 20205 yr So this year has sucked so far, obviously, but I’m not going to stress too much about it because 8 teams get in the playoffs, no fans exist, so there’s really no benefit to being anything more than slightly less shitty than the 9th best team in the league. It’s a hurdle I think we will clear, at which point in time nobody has any advantage. you could actually argue if you think the yankees and Dodgers are really that good that you’d be best off being the 8th seed anyway since that’s just a three game set. In baseball the 2011 Astros could beat the Yankees of 1927 best 2 out of three and it wouldn’t mean anything or be much of a surprise. the good thing, so far, to come out of this season is that there’s a lot of talent, seemingly, in the home grown starting pitching market- a lot of #3 types. We were going to have to rebuild the top end of the starting rotation after 2021 which was going to be hard. If you have 4 or 5 guys with #2-4 type ability that you are paying next to nothing that makes it a lot easier to go get a hammer. It also might make Springer more able to be afforded. I’m assuming Correa is gone completely. If some of these kids are legit it extends our competitive window into 2025-2026 If you were ever going to have a throw away season this is it. Whoever said this reminds of 2000 where we went from 3 division titles, to terrible, to playoffs in 3 of the next 5 years feels right. If we can get out of 2020 in our down year sneaking into the playoffs so much the better. Edited August 15, 20205 yr by Wulaw Horn

August 15, 20205 yr I think the Can't Score Crap in Extra Innings stat is the one y'all are looking for.
August 15, 20205 yr 1 minute ago, clapclapclap said: I think the Can't Score Crap in Extra Innings stat is the one y'all are looking for. Correct. 1-4 in extra innings is muy mal.
August 15, 20205 yr Yep. 5 for 37, .135 BA. worst in the majors in extra innings. and that’s with the largest sample size. No other team has played 5 extra inning games. But god forbid, in 45 plate appearances in extra innings, we’d attempt to bunt once. Edited August 15, 20205 yr by UTexasFight
August 15, 20205 yr Wtf Biagini has been useless and thinks he's a comedian when he's just a fucking idiot. I'd be cool with Bailey taking his spot on the roster.Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk
August 15, 20205 yr It will be fun to see everyone filled with Astros hate lose their shit if we sneak in as the final playoff team due to the team right behind us having a COVID outbreak the last weekend of the season. Then we go on and win the whole fucking thing.
August 15, 20205 yr Fuck you for fucking up Brantley, Kelly you fucking cunt. I hope you get syphilis and die a horrible death.
August 15, 20205 yr Javier at his best is something to behold. If only he had Framber’s consistency. Edited August 15, 20205 yr by Fozzz
August 15, 20205 yr Yordan’s knees looked pretty good on that 1st to 3rd run. Edited August 15, 20205 yr by TonyTexas

August 15, 20205 yr Tuve requested the move down in the batting order... Needed to be moved down. I had been waiting for it.
