  1. Here is what you don’t get… all that shit is absolutely a thing and correct. but, and this is the most important but, our pitching development staff is so fucking awesome that it overrides all the shit you said that’s absolutely 100% true.
  2. 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.
  3. Still not Bryce Matthews. Fuckers.
  4. 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.
  5. So Gordon sort of sucks at pitching and he’s a dumb dumb
  6. This is why I’m bearish on him in the longterm. Gusto.
  7. Should probably consider scoring some more runs.
  8. It’s impossible to know on Whitcomb with their refusal to play him at all.
  9. Hope I’m not. I said I doubt he’s ready. But try something.
  10. They should have brought up Matthews and played him everyday until the all star break. I doubt he’s ready by the way, but it would be fun and it might work out. There’s no real reason not to do that.
  11. I mean- you can come by in October to point and laugh at everyone gripping and melting down. My general sense of equanimity disappears when the Calendar flips to October. Yes- it would be sort of dumb not to do that as opposed to flying him out there for a game across the country to LA, and then half way back to Houston. Why mess with it?
  12. Dana- that’s my fetish scooby doo gif.
  13. Off days are awful, that's true.
  14. Who you gonna believe- the guy telling you this is a 92-97 win team all year of the sky is falling crowd?
