I'll probably drop a little something on each of these and enjoy the ride.
March 26, 20187 yr How has Cole looked? Did the pitching coaches make any changes to his approach, delivery, etc? a great move by your front office imo.. Maybe I don't pay attention enough but Brett Strom seems to be working wonders, under the radar. He must be highly regarded at this point. Is he getting any press on managerial positions?

Pretty damned good. He's hitting 97 and his stuff looks filthy. If he could keep up that K/9 and keep his WHIP a bit lower, no reason he couldn't win 15+ games.

IIRC, his first start was a little shaky, but he's been nails since then.

March 26, 20187 yr Let's do this shit, men! This thread was an all time classic last year, a shame it didn't get its proper due.
March 26, 20187 yr Can we get 40 wheelbarrows to carry our nuts during the fuckin' parade (in November)?

March 26, 20187 yr So, I think it's fate. There is a truck I'm thinking of buying in McKinney. I was upset about the drive. Then realized Astros are playing in Arlington. I think it's a sign

March 26, 20187 yr I'm disappointed in anyone who thinks we'll win fewer than 162 in the regular season. Hasn't this team proved itself? Edited March 26, 20187 yr by Gut Wagon
