November 8, 20223 yr If, like me, you missed Sparky’s locker room broadcast, here are some highlights.
November 8, 20223 yr Popular Post I missed the 2017 parade because my wife wanted to book a trip to Disney world during the world series and harbored that ever since then and it, up until yesterday, was a sore topic for us. A dream of mine was to attend a world series parade for the Astros with my dad and brothers. That was before I thought about getting married and having kids, you know the good old days. Well, yesterday my dream came true and was able to do just that. Easily a top 5 day in my life, actually these last few days have been amazing. The highest of highs and super thankful and appreciative of all that's happened. Rides like this don't come along often, at least to teams that I typically root for and I wanted to make sure I was around as much as possible for them. Game 6 - check Parade - check Astros dynasty - check Some pics from yesterday, half of yall know me anyway so nothing to hide. My dad and Chita, lol.
November 8, 20223 yr 11 is an interesting number to me right now, and not just for the obvious reason that it took the 2022 Astros and 2017 Astros 11 wins to get the WS trophy. That number also represents the incredible dynastic run of the organization over the last six seasons. There have been 236 MLB playoff games from 2017-2022 and the total number of baseball games played where we Astros fans have been sadfaced like Helo watching other teams play for the title? 11. That is absolutely bonkers and it is yet another numerical reminder how all of us diehard Astros fans will never take this sustained greatness and joyful success for granted.

November 8, 20223 yr Popular Post I’m still digesting what just happened over the last three weeks. In the span of 13 games we saw: - A super dramatic 2 out 3-run bomb for a walk-off victory - An 18-inning 1-0 victory - A sweep of the Yankees - A 7-game winning streak against playoff teams - A fucking no-hitter - A monster Yordan bomb to ice the championship - A rookie winning MVP of the ALCS and WS while being the most consistent performer in the field and at the plate all through the playoffs Not only did the Astros win it all, they did it in spectacular fashion. Unreal.
November 8, 20223 yr Also… remember giving Dusty props for getting win number 2000 as a manager earlier this year? He now has 2093.

Unreal. It hit me today Javier is responsible for two no-hitters this year. the days of one pitcher No-hitters are effectively over and he just set the bar for that type of achievement for one season.

November 9, 20223 yr Author I was at the last WS flag unveiling and it went quite poorly. Given that the parade route this time was 100000x better than the 2017 parade, I can only assume they’ll learn from their mistake of failing to be able to get the cover off the pennant at the climactic moment.
November 9, 20223 yr click is getting screwed over, yankees are probably going to extend cashman 5 years / $25mil and he's been a pure failure
November 9, 20223 yr Since they are playing the white Sox, should let Blummer raise the flag Sent from my SM-G990U using Tapatalk

November 9, 20223 yr The 3 batter minimum has cratered the value of lefty specialists. Also it turns out that having a whole bunch of good relievers makes things much simpler. Edited November 9, 20223 yr by kevwun
