    Two Diamond Club tickets available for the Sunday night game.  Free.  Need to pick them up from me in 77027. Rules: Poster must be a big contributor to this thread/last years shag thread.  No gue

Besides Severino, their starters are very mediocre so they need all the bullpen help they can get.
 
Edit: supposedly for Dillon Tate as centerpiece and other prospects. Tate is the #9 rated prospect in the Yankee system.


That surprises me. We absolutely could have beat a deal headlined by Tate. Either we were not as interested as the pundits led us to believe, or the Orioles are run by imbeciles.

Pisses me off. They don’t even need him.

 

They're also keeping him away from other teams 

So we don’t get Herrera, Hand or Britton arguably the top 3 available back end relievers. Guess we just wait for Give It Away Giles to come back. Standing pat won’t get it done in my opinion but what do I know. I’ve bitched about Luhnow in the past so I’m just gonna sit back and watch. They’ve earned that for at least a year.

To be clear, all of us who were bitching last year were proven right. We NEEDED Verlander. No idea what the plan is for the bullpen, but I guess Luhnow has earned the benefit of the doubt until September 1st.

They could've played from the start. This is seriously stupid. But guess what.....alcohol sales are just extended cause of this WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

If the Yanks did give away their number 9 for Britton, the equivalent in the Astros organization at 9 would be Corbin Martin. Fuck that

I’m 100% good with Rondon being the closer 

Same.  Still would like another bullpen arm and an outfield bat or catcher.

Rondon has been good, but he lost the closer job twice in Chicago.  Don't know all the circumstances, but they got elite guys to replace him.

We are not going to need a closer. In October, all of our bats are going to be on fire and we will sweep through the playoffs with the average score being 15-1.

Even though ratings won't be down because the entire world will enjoy us destroying the Red Sox, Yankees, and Dodgers again, the rest of the league will go along with them in instituting a 10-run-rule because everyone is afraid of us embarrassing them in the future. They will call the new rule The Astros Rule.

In order to invoke the rule to end their pain, the opposing manager must approach the crew chief with a microphone connected to the PA system and announce, "The Astros Rule".

jesus we just won the ws without a closer.  i would like to add a bullpen lefty, but not to close the game.  also maybe a lefty bat.  could we do a conley+dietrich deal?

You were all bitching about the bullpen last year too.  We couldn't have done it without Liriano and Tyler Clippard!!!1!1

They went out and got a guy that blew the WS Game 7 save.  Giles could do that.

remember when the astros had to face all those 'unhittable' / elite closers in the playoff, we were dooooooooooooooooomed !!!

 

I know Altuve is a better hitter but damn if i don't think Bregman is this teams offensive MVP

he's going to balk again tonight

not this year

Kalas still out.  They couldn't talk Brownie into one roadtrip?

Scraps is somewhere in front of me based on those pics. Looking for a bald drunk man is harder than you'd think

Scraps are you wearing sunglasses on your hat?
Negative sir

Got an orange Verlander jersey on 3rd row by fair pole

Shit think you're one level below me. How many with you? I have a suite I can sneak you into probably

and this is how rape happens 

I could see a guy like Eovaldi like HG has been saying.

 

It sounds a bit crazy but as much as Hinch has been harping on resting the starters, Eovaldi makes more and more sense the more I think about it. I’m not convinced Hinch isn’t going to go to a 6 man rotation in September. They’d prefer to have seen what Whitley could do, but his suspension and injury, I bet they are calling it and not counting on him being a factor this year.

 

-With Eovaldi, you have a guy that made his first appearance the week of Memorial Day, so like Keuchel and LMJ last year, he won’t be overworked going into September/ October.

-Gives you protection against an injury to the current 5 after the deadline without having to disrupt the role Peacock and McHugh have settled in to.

-Alvin HS product

-FA after this year, seems to be fine after TJ surgery in 2016 and some clean up surgery in March, but may not have to give up as much because of both of those reasons.

-Use him as a 6th starter in September move him to the pen in October.

 

 

 

I’m looking forward to seeing how Scraps crafts a walk off with the Astros the visiting team. 

Adam Bergman really helping his trade value today

Is that not a balk? Seemed like he motions towards the plate before he went over to 1st.
