    Going through old pics because of the death of my grandmother / mom and came across this -- 1996, my son's first Astros game.

he released a "manifesto" on Saturday titled "My Honest Reality." It's pinned on his Twitter page. 

I tried to read it all but lost interest quickly.

Have we decided on the season thread title ?

 

’Slamming buds after the dog pile : electric boogaloo’ ?

’Fire Dusty’ ?

’’Fuck Dubon and Maton !’ ?

’Why is Presley our closer ??’ ?

’Good luck Fuckers !’ ? 
 

thread should start when the roster is set

The only upside to Altuve's injury is the opening it creates for Dirden to crack the active roster. I assume they will put Atuve on the 60-day IL which frees up a 40-man spot for Dirden.

I thought we fairly unanimously agreed on “Get Greedy” after the Dana Brown intro.

i thought we agreed on something straightforward like "the defending champion houston astros 2023 season thread".

It's gonna be real weird seeing his giant ass at 2nd base.

There was another giant 2B that got started in the his late 20s, that had a pretty good career, may have hit the most HRs as a 2B, and Sandberg was no small guy either, but I guess neither was 6'6".

This is the plan. I don’t see why we dwell on being WS Champs, it’s time to win another. Right?

Seriously.  Let me know when you've won 3.

So what was the opening day lineup when Bill Hall was at second?  Cause that name totally draws a blank for me. 

2011 Opening Day lineup:

Michael Bourn, CF

Angel Sanchez, SS

Hunter Pence, RF

Carlos Lee, LF

Bill Hall, 2B

Chris Johnson, 3B

Brett Wallace, 1B

Humberto Quintero, C

Brett Myers, P

 

Murderer's Row, IMO.

#5479

Bill Hall's claim to fame was walk off homer on mother's day with pink bat and mom in attendance. Unfortunately that was years earlier with the Brewers

#5482

Not an ideal Spring to be honest. Altuve out indefinitely. LMJ and Brantley not close to playing yet. Yordan sat out almost all of ST and may not be ready for Opening Day.

#5484

 Here's hoping we see a lot more Hensley in the lineup at second base than Dubon. One thing Hensley has proved capable of is getting on base. Granted, 29 AB is a very small sample size but his .441 obp is consistent with the .420 obp he put up last year across 104 games in AAA.

I'm just tryna find the silver linings to these injuries. My bet is on Hensley being a big contributor this year and breakout candidate.

I did love Bourn though. He had a few really good years. He was fun, but yeah, that era was dreadful.

Will be at the ballpark in about 90 minutes.  Warming up at the outlet mall 

I’ll  post a few pictures 

Of the new food court?

The lefty specialist is a thing of the past unless they get rid of the minimum batters faced rule which ain't happening.

#5495

Poor Dusty.  He probably thought with Click gone he would be able to sneak one lefty onto the roster.

Damn it pays to be a hot chick. Surprised they hooked her up but I guess she's considered an influencer? 


I saw at least one other barstool chick get a  package
