    there's so much to unpack from today, so i'll just start listing them. tuesday was devastating for oakland, today was twice as devastating for the yankees.  they had just started to play better.

    The boy and I were at the last ALCS clincher - we were walking on air for days after Altuve’s walkoff. Today, the boy is 5,000 miles and 7 hours away, with no way to watch. So we did a video chat, w

  • Enjoy it. Old Altuve, no more Correa means this is the very end of the road for your tainted dynasty.

Nearly empty stadium, and half the fans there are in Dodgers gear. What a shitty organization and fanbase. I feel sorry for Trout and Ohtani. 

Don't feel sorry for either of those guys. Trout only made the playoffs once, and resigned with the shit organization, while Ohtani had many suitors.

I'm loving the under 4.5 Astros total runs at +120 on bovada right now if anyone wants to earn some easy money.

Good call.

Carlos Correa contract update:

 

 

Making up for lost time. Astros Future had him as the #1 Astros prospect to start the season before Pena got hurt.

Holy fuck that bat "boy" at the end of the first clip

Although thinking about it there's a decent chance it's an adult with developmental issues, not sure why else a grown adult would be a minor league bat boy. So I guess I feel bad. But still.

They’ve got some Junk baller going tomorrow, so the Astros will probably struggle.  You never know, though, we might be able to hit the Angels in the Junk.

Man, I’ve seen some unfortunate names in baseball over the years but that one’s up there .

if ever there was a day to have Scrubb available and go with an “opener”, it would be today

Junk baller = start every Cuban and foreign born player 

That’s pretty easy to do with this roster. The Astros must be the most Latino-heavy team in MLB

Almost as racist as when you have no scouting report on a black dude just throwing him curveballs.

The almost as racist part was tongue in cheek- joke- b/c you said essentially that the latin american players would feast on junk ballers.  There is a similar belief, amongst some college coaches, that you should throw curves to African American players b/c they are less likely to have polished baseball skills as opposed to superior athleticism, and the superior athleticism is needed to hit the fastball while  baseball skills are more for hitting off speed pitchers.  

Edit to add- I see that it was TX 3 putt that said bring in the Cubans not you.  I responded to you b/c you responded to him.  Probably replied to wrong post.

Maybe you meant to respond to 3putt’s post. All  I said was that the Astros roster has a high % of Hispanic players.

Yeah, I edited to add that while you were posting.  Yours was just the last reply on the thought so I lazily quoted that.  Sorry. My bad.

That's "Big Mike".  He does has a learning disability.  Been with them since they debuted in 2012.  Fan favorite.

Conversation begins and ends with Bob Walk. Yeah, he was primarily a starter, but went to the bullpen in his later years.

Seeing on yankee sites that espada should be on the short list for the next manager. Also the Tampa bench coach
