Yes.  Arizona is the only NL team we have HFA on. 

Given how shitty we have played at MMP in the WS and how shitty we have played at MMP during the 2023 season I'm ok with this....

Seems like the player mostly gets to choose unless it's something ridiculous like Wade Boggs wanting to be a Devil Ray

Right

He’s the reason they changed it.

Previously, while the Hall had final decision, they always deferred to the player.

after Boggs, the Hall took over deciding with the player’s preference being one input

Remember When? Pete Rose gets 4,000th MLB hit with Expos

Also side note I still think it's hilarious that they signed him to get his 4,000th hit then traded him back to the Reds.

it doesn’t go by playoff seed first? Weird but I guess we are better on the road so just might work out.

F Selig in perpetuity

Also one for the trivia books... Rose was traded back to the Reds from Montreal for the Houston Astros interim manager in 2014

I used to really like that but in a really dumb, team chaos loving to watch weird shit happen sort of way

When we booked our vacation last year, my wife said, “you’ll miss the playoffs.”   I told her, “just through the ALDS, so the Astros will still be playing when we get home.” Flight back from London was delayed last night, so we got a bonus vacation night in Chicago.  Not making it home until this afternoon, but sure enough, the Astros are still playing ball.  
 

Maybe it was foolhardy or hubris, but damn it feels good to be a gangsta.

I mean the best was his dumbass justification after we had that tie ASG in Milwaukee of all places when the fans got mad.  That MFer was a true bozoron not sure how he ever accumulated $$ to own a team even though he bought the then bankrupt Seattle Pilots still $10.8 million in 1970 was a lot of grip because inflation hadn't really set as Nixon was just about to close the gold window and fuck this country over.

No the best was him getting inducted in to the HOF (hear me out) with Bagwell and the Astros fans not have the loudest boos… which came instead from the Expos fans there to see Tim Raines get inducted.

this picture I took still makes me laugh every time I see it

Any of you assholes going to Mimic Maid park for game 3 or 4?

I love when they make the team that has the night game follow it up with a day game. Dumb shit.

What’s the pitching matchups looking like?

jv vs Montgomery

Not sure it is worth worrying about until we know if Scherzer and/or Gray are added to the ALCS roster

Speaking of does anyone know when the ALCS rosters are due?

Baseball gods, people.  Sheesh.

Man, I get it’s a long way until Sunday but y’all need to find something else to bitch about

 

it’s always like this.

whichever LCS starts first, they get primetime as the sole game the first night.  Then the next day (game 1 for the other LCS), the other LCS gets primetime and the series that started first moves to the afternoon.

From there it alternates any time there are two games on the same day.

(We’d get primetime game 3 with no NLCS opposite us, primetime game 4 while NLCS game 3 is in the afternoon, then afternoon ALCS game 5, while NLCS game 4 is in the evening)

75 in Houston next Friday. Sounds like the perfect time to shut down the computer at 3:30 and head out to one of the Creeks or any patio bar to watch the game 😎

You might consider starting your back-up catcher for that day game.

 

You might.

 

Yeah right.  Yainer ain't catching a game this series.

Listening to national commentary since last night, I've learned that Dusty Baker is considered one of the top two managers in baseball.

Take that, surly.

Not only the overlapping days when the NLCS is going too.  Fortunately they have staggered the starts so between the travel dates and the staggered start you should have every day with a game and even if both series went the full 7 games you should only have 4 days where both are active.  They did split the day games 2 apiece between AL & NL just the AL gets the 1st & 3rd shared day where the NL gets the 2nd & 4th shared day so if for example the AL were to wrap up early and the NL push to 6 they will still get the prime slot.

They are killing it on offense, and as always, it will come down to our run prevention and lineup depth.  Love our team, though, even if it was frustrating this year.  Hope the extra time off helps Javier.

The Rays and especially the O’s had key members of their pitching staffs injured.  Hell, Baltimore was basically down to one real starter.

Well, we were discussing the Rangers hot hitting.  Try to keep up.

it bothers me that the phillies are allowed to wear their sick throwback jerseys in the playoffs.

can we contact the rangers and just agree that game 1 of the alcs will take place in 1981?
