Fuck Him and the Angels 

Edited by mbtex

Thinking today about how fortunate we got by acquiring Verlander instead of the other pitchers whose names were in the mix last season. Nearly every other pitcher the fans were clamoring for last season has been a bust with his new team. Darvish has a 6.86 ERA, 60 ERA+, and 5.02 FIP. Quintana has a 7.78 ERA, 53 ERA+, and 5.23 FIP. And Gray has a 7.71 ERA, 57 ERA+, and 5.05 FIP. 

Meanwhile JV was the ALCS MVP and currently has 1.36 ERA, 283 ERA+, and 2.84 FIP. Now, maybe Strom could have worked some magic with the other guys that would have resulted in them having better numbers, but as it sits now, we went out and got the one SP available last season who hasn't shit the bed with his new team.

Realmuto with 4 HR in 25 ABs. this week. Astros getting decent production from McCann and Stassi but if you’re them do you revisit that trade thinking about next 4-5 years? Cost could be prohibitive.

Nope. Because it was probably going to cost Tucker, and precisely because I am thinking about the next 4-5 years (and longer).

I never understood the Pujols hate. The Astros wound up winning that series anyway. He's pretty much been a class act his entire career.

He also siad this.
"They have five guys over there that could be legit No. 1 on any other ball club," he said Tuesday."You need to be careful when you say something like that because it's all about being healthy," he said.

fuck him.

I'm more of a cardinals hater than a pujols hater.  But he played for the cardinals so there ya go...

Gregerson just walked in the go ahead run in the top of the 10th against the Mets.

You do you, Gerg.

agreed.  and it's really the fact that we brought in a veteran leader.  it's been said that jv changed the attitude and the whole clubhouse is different now.  even if quintana or gray was pitching great (which they are not), verlander's leadership is a gamechanger.  i have to think having him and mccann has to be a reason cole and morton are pitching so well.

Because of that Fuckin HR our rotation was screwed in the World Series. So Fuck Him plus He was a Cardinal 

I will stop hating Pujols when the ball he hit off Lidge lands. 

Since it is an Astros off day I watched some of the Braves Reds game to check out this Acuna kid.  Yeah.., he legit.

He smoked an upper deck homer and scored from second later in the game in what seemed like two seconds.  He can freaking lay tread running the bases.

btw, it also emphasizes the importance of how we manipulated the draft to grab guys like daz.

Draft is what has separated luhnow from previous gm's. Dude has killed it. 

Driving in from Austin tomorrow for the Friday game. Sec 110. Splurged since it's my birthday.  Let's Go Astros,

Had no meaningful impact to WS rotation.  Getting swept negated any “screwed up the rotation” argument.   If Roy O would have won his start, then maybe there would be a discussion.  All the Pujols homerun did was allow the Astros to punk the Cardinals in old Busch stadium one last time.   

Also closed out old busch stadium that night also. Most important game tonight

I'll be there Sunday with my kiddo.  Getting McHugh's autograph before the game and then running the bases after.

Should be a fun series this weekend - as an A's fan I'm nervous. Oakland has won 8 of 10, Manaea, Mengden and Cahill are pitching lights-out and the lineup is fearsome, but the Astros are just fundamentally better if both teams play to their ability.

Happy Birthday and welcome to Houston.

Gary Pettis's son (Dante) just got drafted in the second round by the Niners.  Pretty cool for their family.

We need to get the fuck away from minute maid

Is it too soon to start scoreboard watching?

 

It's neat that we're piling runs during the Manaea start when we didn't really need them... I'll take it though!

Joe Smith... has he had one clean inning this year?
