  1. 3 point shooting and FT shooting is complete dog shit. Lulz, we worked to get a Smith a wide open 3 at the end of the game.
  2. Crane is also going to be pissed when the corporate money goes backs to the Texans as he runs the Astros into the ground by allowing Bagwell and himself to overrun the baseball ops and nerds.
  3. You do understand that if the WR gets off the line he is housing any deep throw because the safeties are not fast enough to make plays on the ball.
  4. All our rookie pitchers +Javier hit a wall in the 2nd half of the season. Losing Garcia and McCullers really hurt. If everyone is healthy next year, then we need at a minimum at a 6-man rotation, if not tandem starting(outside of Verlander and Framber) for the 1st half of the season.
  5. Fuck no. Seriously fuck no. This idea that Maldonado is good in any way based on the last season of data is retarded.
  6. Yeah, one loss and they are likely done for the CFPs.
  7. You got a car decal. Is there a level that returns to you car bling?
  8. Bagwell is starting to make me root for the cocaine. Anyone that seriously thinks we go into next year with a Meyers/Dubon platoon in CF is a fucking moron.
  9. Yep. We have had two of the dumbest mother fuckers to ever manage win a title in Houston. While I would prefer a different person for the job, with the talent we have we are the LSU of the MLB. Managers come here a fail upwards. Now Brown was his work cut out to make this team idiot proof, like Luhnow and Click did before him. First order of on field personnel business, you make Framber and Tucker your best offers, and if they say no, you trade them for a package of prospects with at least 2 combined MLB ready players included. You need to upgrade LF over Dubon, because Chas should be your everyday CF. You need a lefty in that position. You need a backup catcher and a backup corner IF, that guy should be a lefty as well. The backup CI should be a guy like Mike Moustakas. A veteran that has been a major contributor on a team that has won a WS, that will be looking for a vet minimum deal and a backup role. The available FAs in the OF are pretty slim pickings. So, if none of your prospects are ready, Loperfido. Then you should be looking at a 1-year deal with Pederson, Kiermaier, and Winker being the best options.
  10. I feel that the O/U for wins was way too high. This team is going to suck.
  11. I guess his boss did have a problem and didn't just laugh it off.
  12. They obviously saw a benefit to doing it, or they would have stopped. They were ready to tape the PSU and OSU game last week for both teams. They are getting hammered, after the season. Though any loss will eliminate them from CFP discussion.
  13. Tyler O'Neill Brenden Donovan Dylan Carlson
  14. What is this infatuation with Lourdes Guirrel? We need more Lefty-righty balance in the lineup. Trade from a surplus of pitching to get a younger OF. The perfect fit is the Cardinals. They need pitching and have a shit ton of young controlable OFs.
  15. The big difference with the Astros is that the Big 10 conference didn't set up the technology that allowed every team to tape their opponents.
  16. And after 2 or 3 starts he will be done again.
  17. His walk rate improved and his K rate declined. Those are much more important than BABip.
  18. I just laugh at you guys on Pena. He had the same oWAR this year as he did last year. He's a GG defender that is under team control for 4 more seasons. In two seasons, he has produced 8.7 WAR. This past season he was the 48th(10th fulltime SS) position player overall in WAR. He had a shitty post-season, but was better than Tucker.
