As the old saying/words of wisdom goes, baseball is the best when you were 10 years old.

 

And so, this is the correct answer for best jersey.

Yep, this is the one for me. 

Speaking of unis, check out the new BP hat drop. Different than the Spring Training hat (which is also pretty sweet).

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐉𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐲 𝐏𝐞𝐧̃𝐚 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐨𝐮𝐭In a crucial offseason for the #Astros shortstop, Jeremy Peña is working as hard as ever on his swing and his body.At @DST_Houston, I joined Peña for a workout to learn the secrets behind his methods & his muscles 💪🏼

So they bringing maldy back. Awesome for Tuve hopefully deal runs long enough for him to retire as a Astro

If there were two more intimidating pitchers on a staff at the same time, I’d like to know who they were.

The current ones are kinda boring but they’re navy and orange and the old logo so I like them. I wish they’d bring back the orange caps though:

Not a fan of the all orange caps, but for those that are, you’re in luck (at least for spring training):

Being at the dome for a series in which JR, Niekro and Ryan all started was comical. Visiting bats never could really settle in. Those were the days.

Yes, the numbers are awesome. Should have kept them on the rainbow shoulders uni to make it the ultra-best ever. Oh well.

And Joe Niekro’s knuckleball sandwiched between them. That would be a frustrating three game series for opposing batters.

Holy fuck, what a bargain …

Everybody in Houston loves this. It’s what you do for the face of the franchise. A 5 yr, $125 million extension from 2025-29.Jose Altuve is a Houston Astro for life and that’s the only correct way to go about it. Jose Altuve is Houston. He means so much to the city & fans. https://t.co/Wst9UTgPCQ

Astros mlb hit #1 ….

Altuve time!!!Here's from Jose Altuve's debut in 2011. He will be an Astro through 2029

Very encouraging, that’s some of the best people in baseball to be working with. hopefully he stayed away from livvy dunn …

For all the "Jeremy needs to be a swinging a bat instead of being in the weight room" people -Peña spent time this offseason in the Marucci lab in Louisiana analyzing the metrics of his swing to make improvements.It's all part of the process of "simplicity & efficiency" he… https://t.co/rTKhMh42gO

Great news!

That would take him through his 19th season at age 39 (Don't worry about how old I'll be).  He'll need to average 156 hits per year to get to 3000 by then.

I've had quite an Astro-centric day. Wife's boss invited us to sit as his table at this charity event at ROCC. Berkman and Dusty were the featured entertainment and had a pretty funny 20-minute or so chat, just telling baseball stories and whatnot. Saw Crane and Dana Brown in the crowd. Mark Appel randomly was one of the guys sitting at our table.  

Just got done picking my first batch of April and May games from my season ticket group allotment. 

Just as I finished doing so, saw the news about Altuve!
