    I snuck on to the field and did the same thing, spreading my Dads ashes out in RF in 2019. We used to watch 50+ games a year together in section 134. Made me a Stros fan since birth. He had the best s

Which means our record is a mirage mainly due to our bullpen of misfits pitching above their talent. If they can make a full season pitching at this level it will be a big surprise and Crane will immediately offer all of them stupid contracts.

our ex W-L is 48-37, which is exactly the Yankees record.

If only someone would have analyzed all the players so far and determined that nobody (other than Hunter Brown) is really pitching above their expected contact profile and this isn't some sort of fluke where a bunch of pissrods are getting hit right at people.

The bullpen is striking fools out left and right and not walking a ton of guys. Except for Abreu. And that's just his process, you have to respect that. 

There is nothing unsustainable about anything going on right now except for Jeremy Pena and Hunter Brown.  He's been generationally awesome (like 4th best first half of a season for any Astro pitcher ever) when his underlying numbers say he's merely been all start good.  And Jeremy Pena's underlying numbers say that he's probably performing like an all star and his actual stats say more like MVP.  Beyond that there's more bad luck than good on this team in comparing expected outcomes to actual outcomes.   The bad luck on a granular level is probably balanced by the good luck on a team overperfoming pythag level and this team is what it appears to be- 94-100 win type of good. 
It's baseball so anything can happen coming in- but I'd be shocked if we don't win the division and would expect us to win 95. Maybe that's good enough for the 1 seed- maybe it's good enough for the 3 seed. 



keep improving
get healthy 

 


Yeah thats working great

Let’s call up that guy who can’t hit to take the place of the guy who can’t it. Keeping everything even Steven and worlds aligned. 
 

And I’m not sure how sustainable Meyers plate performance is but let’s hope he keeps it up. He’s still my whipping boy but I never root against him. I just expect the worst. I’ll continue to eat all the crow if he hits .300.

So the only guy that can play SS other than Dubon was placed in the DH spot. Ok.

Meters will keep doing what he’s doing if his contact profile stays the same and his strikeouts stay very low. 
that contact profile was made to juice babip and have slugging suck dick. Mission accomplished.

How bad is Whitcomb at 2B, that Altuve is the play over him?

How bad is at every position that we pulled up Trammel, Hummel, and Guillorme over him?

We've got to be at the top of the stats when it comes to leaving RISP

Jeff Bagwell was watching tonight's game on TV and saw Jose Altuve tie him with 2,314 hits.

"I don’t think the number of hits he has now and the number hits I had is what we’re concerned with," he said via phone. "There’s another number out there that he’s looking at more than mine (3,000 hits). He’s such a great hitter and a huge part of this franchise’s success over all the years. He’s an incredible player and person. I couldn’t be happier for him. Like I said, he’s got bigger places to go than that.”
