I was with a group in the field club last night. I feel like I’ve been in most every nook and cranny of MMP, but never down there. I thought it was awesome. A kid in our group got a ball from Mike Trout after he caught the third out of the first inning. Good times, Go Stros.

Thanks for the invite 🥺🥺🥺

Julks has played IF both in college and the minors. To say he can't become a 1B is moronic, he's not a great OF, so moving to 1B would help his career. Daiz should stay at catcher because he's actually very good at catching. Dubon fucking sucks and should be happy Altuve had a broken thumb, but he should be playing less than once a week on a WS contending club.

Damn, no Tucker or Altuve 

Dusty “Scheduled day off”

we need hm badly for the 2nd half. He’s an innings eater ….

José Urquidy said he will not go with the Astros to Toronto and Cleveland this week. He’s still throwing just fastballs on flat ground, and will aim to add breaking balls to the mix before he throws a bullpen. Urquidy threw the last two days and was off today, said he feels good.
 

Astros will start Brandon Bielak, Hunter Brown, Ronel Blanco and Framber Valdez in Toronto next week.

Singleton batting 6th playing 1st in Cincy today.

this thread is going to explode if he matches Abreu’s power numbers within the first week

hitting .286 in June 

It's incredible how easily baseball players get hurt during this time. Training, recovery, body composition is much better than it was in the 80s and 90s and still players are getting hurt more often. Biggio would have his arm amputated and would still play every game.

I mean it's a good bet he does. Dubon has surpassed Abreu's power numbers.

I think it’s more a sign of how elevated the quality is of every MLB player today. Every team has guys throwing 100+ and several have guys that can reach 105.

if you’re not 100%, you’re going to get ground up and spit out.


….that or MLB players are just taking their cues from the rest of society (e.g. unlimited PTO, paternity leave, etc policies)

 

Probably some of both, maybe tilted slightly towards the latter.

 

oh, and throw in expanded playoffs today where every game in the regular season isn’t nearly as important as it was in the early 90s when 2 teams from each league made the playoffs and then mid-90s when it expanded to 4.

Astros are good enough where they just need to make sure Altuve is healthy in September so they are going to do everything they can to make sure that happens

Edited by UTexasFight

altuve and many on this team have played many more games than the rest of mlb. this team is playing right now, with oct and nov in mind. no one else in mlb is thinking like that

hahahahahahaha

I’ll take it. 

I spent last night in the arms of a girl from Louisianna!!!!

no tuck or altuve, no problem today.  Need to do this to Minnesota. 

That July 4 weekend collision will be very special. Rangers bats one of the best in many years, 6+ runs a game, what a job by their front office. Go Stros!

BREGGY BOMB SLAM !!!!!

Damn. I had to pee at the pitching change and missed it. But I heard it from the MMP bathroom 

2 things:

1) that was as soft a bomb as you will ever see hit, and it was worth 4 runs for us! 
2) the Angels seem like they generally play the shittiest brand of baseball this side of the A’s. The way they herp derped themselves through that in inning giving us 5, or perhaps 6, outs was an abomination against baseball and they should feel shame and embarrassment. 
It’s almost like a Greek myth story, Icarus flying too close to the sun, Sisyphus rolling the boulder ip the hill, Trout and Ohtani being generational players on 75-82 win teams surrounded by dipshits and morons. It’s all good stuff. 
Then, the Astros turn a great double play to shut down an inning showing the difference

for as much as shit as dubon has caught, he's been a shining star for us this season

@Js1 tell them to stop doing the fucking wave

I can't imagine why whoever bats in front of Abreu would ever see a strike.
