Everyone doesn't need rest. We have an off day tomorrow. Give old man Tuve and Pena off.

    Pretty perfect game to take a three year old to. Was over before he got too bored and got to see a couple homers. Thanks @UTPhil2006 for the suggestion about the first game certificate, had plenty of

    I’m just glad I survived another season of being the official thread starter. Thank you all for your continued support in this emotional time.   In more ways than one with tonight’s result:

Bregman must have drawn the short straw.

Bregman and Pena are in a contest. First one to get a hit gets replaced by Kessinger and gets rest of the day off. I don’t know why Salazar isn’t playing

Sunday will be the only day we go full punt mode

I hate to say it, but it might not matter if he doesn't play in the first round.

Real talk.

Ideal state for me would be an NL 22/23 type round for the AL

1. MFY
2. CLE
3. HOU
4. BAL
5. DET
6. MIN/KC (NO SEA)

DET over BAL
HOU over MIN/KC

DET over MFY
HOU over CLE

HOU over DET

Even if DET pulled it out and won (they are the hottest team in baseball at 28-11 in the last 39) I would be ok with losing to them compared to the MFY

The good news is next to the Astros the team with the 2nd best mark against the MFY in the postseason is the Tigers who are 3-0 (2006 ALDS, 2011 ALDS, 2012 ALCS)

That makes Verlander the ultimate MFY king (6-0 in series including 2 sweeps all time in the postseason vs MFY & 5-1 as a starter)

my guess is they want caratini to have more experience catching kikuchi for the playoffs since he’s been here the shortest amount of time and salazar won’t ever catch a starter in the postseason.

Yordy not going to Cleveland. 

Yordan Alvarez will stay in Houston to rehab while the Astros are in Cleveland. He has not resumed any baseball activity yet but is feeling better, Joe Espada said. Chas McCormick will also stay back and face pitching in live BP.

As it should be. He should remain in Houston until we fly to Game 1 of the ALDS

It's delightful.

This is why I’m not a regular poster during the regular season. Too long a season to be making definitive statements during bad times and good, and we all want to make emotional snap judgments watching them day in and day out. 

Let’s make another run, boys!

Did you realize that there will be no 100-win teams in the postseason this year, the first time that has happened since 2014?

The 88-74 wild card San Francisco Giants won the World Series that year by taking out Pittsburgh in the wc playoff game, Nationals in the LDS, Cardinals in the NLCS, and deciding 7th game vs KC in the World Series.

 

By recent Houston standards, we've played a lot of forgettable baseball this season. Fortunately, everyone else in the AL West has played even more of it. And there are no super teams in either league, though there are quite a few individuals having monster years. So if Alvarez is OK and we get a bit more from our role player bats and Pressly, we might do some serious damage.

Well there it is. We’ll win 88 games too and win our 3rd WS on the tail end of our dynasty like the Giants did that year 

Blanco will start Friday, Verlander on Saturday, TBA on Sunday.
 

shout out to julio rodriguez, just signed a ton of balls and jerseys before first pitch 

camera iso on breggy coming out of the dugout 😭😭😭😭😭

Nice, taking the lead and they got Kirby over 50 pitches in the third inning.

welp, bregman’s day is done 

Nice moment for possibly his last regular season home game as an Astro.

Almost like a "good bye" by a manager that knows a player isn't coming back.

We have no idea how the negotiations between Bregman and the Astros will go.
