Altuve swings a bat today, and the team remembers how to hit. Coincidence? I think not. 

Pudding pops, motherfucker!

Making up for all the runs they should have scored on this homestand...

No way they overturn that

Thats not fan interference

Tyler white is the greatest hitter in the history of today at minute maid park

It's like they remembered how to play baseball again

make all the jokes about run differential that you want, but the fact remains that teams throughout history with crazy run differentials have done very well in the postseason.  is it a little fluky?  of course.  is it a total coincidence?  i'm not so sure.

teams that seem to skate by with a crazy record in one run games also seem to exit early come oct.

Holy shit, back seems okay on those plays

Houston, Texas...this is the way we ball

Astros needed that one. I needed that one. On to bitch ass Oakland. 



Mariners got it down to 3 back on July 30 when everyone was freaking out. Astros won 6 of the next 7 on that west coast road trip.

I’ll go with a 5-1 record over the next two series in OAK and SEA.

I proposed trading him for Bryce Harper a few weeks ago because they had the same OPS, and Tyler White got pissed off and now has a much higher OPS than Harper.

 

Only explanation.

I'm pretty sure my scalding rebuke of the players and manager after the previous game explains all of this. Which means I should have done it way sooner. I'm only surprised that I didn't have to scream (again) about DFAing Oso for him to suddenly come out of hibernation.

So Tucker is staying... at least until Altuve comes back. Although by then it may be September and the rosters will be expanded. I really hope he finds his stroke in the bigs and he doesn't turn out to be just a great minor leaguer. 

The way he chomps on his big league chew during ABs bothers me for some reason.

July 29 tyler shook hands with lilshep and signed his shirt. 3 years ago same thing happened for Valbuena

Jesus.

After first ~56 plate appearances:
Player A: .157 BA, .259 OBP, .216 SLG, .474 OBP, 11 Ks
Player B: .135 BA, .196 OBP, .173 SLG, .370 OBP, 14 Ks

(Hint: player B’s trade value is now higher than it was after those first 56 PAs)

Tucker doesn't lead the team in home runs yet.  They need to cut him since he's clearly a bust.

 

He is 21 years old and had just start to hit well in Fresno when they called him up the first time.  He wasn't ready and that's not his fault.

Know the answer is Bregman, but thought I'd look up Mike Trout's numbers from his first call up: 7 for 43 with 1 HR and 6 RBI. Agree that we should probably let the guy get a few more ABs first before making any definitive statements. Also wanted to compare him to Ted Williams' first call up...but that guy started 1939 in the majors and won the MVP. Maybe we should pump the brakes all the way around.

So he has 58 PA....he needs about 300 before I will pass judgement.  

 

Listen here you AL West jackasses. We gave you your chance. We kept it interesting for you. Now prepare your anuses. We are about to go no lube for the next three weeks.
