July 3, 20232 yr On a completely unrelated note, a team that hits a grand slams wins 86% of the time. Which seems very low to me.
July 3, 20232 yr What we learned today: Chas is an everyday player as much as Bregman and Altuve and not playing him as such is managerial malpractice The turnaround of Jose Abreu appears to be complete and here to stay. And just in time. The turnaround of Christian Javier also appears to be real and either he can be fixed or the shopping list just got longer. Brantley is likely done. The All Star break can not get here fast enough Never underestimate the heart of a champion. (Thanks Rudy. It still applies to baseball too)

July 3, 20232 yr Am I the only one that can't stand the sight of Altuve, Bregman or Tucker? Something about each one of them just pisses me off.

July 3, 20232 yr Need to keep momentum into the break. We followed up the 5-1 trip to Atlanta and Tampa with 3-8 against Philly/SF/Sea. Hoping for at least 4-2 for the rest of the week.

Yeah, I have a feeling you accidentally clicked on the Astros thread instead of the thread of hate. If this was intentional, and you intend to participate in this thread in a similar manner, I doubt it’s going to go the way you think.
July 3, 20232 yr I had all three tabs open, I'm drunk and I couldn't tell which was which. Like a colorblind man playing Where's Waldo...

July 3, 20232 yr WBC fatigue seems to continue. Hope Javy just needs the AS break, but dip in velocity on his fb is concerning. Dana needs to find a starter and OFer/bat. A reliever would be icing but prob too much to ask for the Farm system.

July 3, 20232 yr Hey at least you have this statue outside Globe Life Barn in memory of making it to the World Series once... Is that for making the WS or is that commemorating their minor league hazing?
July 3, 20232 yr Glad to see King Tuck back to playing at an all-star level the last month or so. He was borderline awful in May, batting just .247 with an OPS under .700, and struck out (14) twice as many times as he walked (7). Since then, he's been raking. .313/.900 in June and back to an even K/BB ratio. The numbers get increasingly better if you look at the 15-day and 7-day trends.

The fact Meyers had about 50 more ABs than Chas coming into this game infuriates me.

July 3, 20232 yr Astros have a mash unit roster right now and we’re 3 games back from the rangers having the best season in 10 years. Lulzzzz. We even suck and still have a shot. 6 straight alcs, 4 WS and 2 titles and they’re still on the “cheating” shit. Hahahaha. Cheaters would have never made the playoffs the next season. Poor babies.

July 4, 20232 yr Javi had a career high in innings last year and is on pace to break that this year. Probably just needs a rest more than anything.
July 4, 20232 yr could've been a real hangover game for us. hopefully it's a hangover game for them now. for texas to arrange their rotation (and lose a game to detroit in the process), then go 1-3 with losses vs blanco, dubin, and a shitty javier has got to sting. get healthy, win games. also if yainer can learn some plate discipline, he's gonna hit 30 bombs. maybe he can work with bregs in the offseason. the optimist in me says all these bench guys getting meaningful time will pay off later. guess we'll see.
July 4, 20232 yr This team is at about 55%. We need Yordan and urquidy back, in a very and way need to trade for another BP arm probably going to 6 man rotation in august not sure if we get another bat, it’s going to be a tough market

July 4, 20232 yr 21 minutes ago, WBT said: Chas was out hurt Sure. But he’s been back for 47 team games and has only appeared in 35 of them. Julks is getting more PT than Chas. Over the last 7 games Chas has sat twice and that’s not atypical.
