  1. Evidently not. Flat as a flounder. Had we looked against LA the way we have since, I'd have understood it. I mean, I'm glad we didn't, but the amazing parlor tricks we've been using aren't working this week. Regression to the mean, yada yada.
  2. This is playing with both hands tied behind our backs. And maybe both legs. Show some life out there.
  3. Getting weak, inexperienced hitters to string together at least three singles to get a run home strikes me as a bad idea. I realize that's sort of who we are right now, but we were in LA, too. Somebody announce their presence with authority.
  4. Were Texas the second choice of each of the nation's 5-star prospects, that would sound really impressive. Until you realize we actually signed no one. But let's see where it goes from here. Just glad we already have verbals from some stud linemen, Bell and Bishop.
  5. Reverting to our old "beat contenders on the road, lose to dregs in Houston" pattern? I'd rather we not.
  6. Can't say I prefer that my bruising PF hang around the arc much, but with touch like that...I'll allow it. Hook 'em, Declan.
  7. Not our pitching standard. Maybe the most dependable part of tonight's lineup can rally.
  8. Ugh. Not a great night for us smacking the ball around. Then again, 5 runs against these guys should have been enough.
  9. No worries. Our expertly curated lineup is a churnin' urn of burnin' funk.
  10. No way were they going to give our muscled-up hamster anything good to hit.
  11. Let's not forget the other true steadying influence behind this amazing run.
  12. Maybe they should have gone with an anchor.
  13. Celebrating dingers with an oversized frog gig is a choice. But I guess those guys can hang a flag for Raleigh's first half HR total and keep fantasizing that Rodriguez is Griffey Jr. reborn.
  14. Notre Dame has been on my bad side since the 1970s. Nothing has changed.
  15. New variation: "Dirty Chavez"
  16. "You must be under this tall to destroy the Dodgers."
  17. Zack has not come up Short.
  18. It's laughable how far MLB's site always goes out of its way to ignore Houston. Not that we aren't used to the shunning, but day in and day out you'll find them saying the bare minimum positive about a franchise that's on a major roll against insane odds. I assume the dismissal is per orders of the commish, but no matter the reason it's become an egregious display of bitterness. Let's win again today to annoy them even more.
  19. No starting All-Stars. Minus our best hitter for this season. No clue when we'll get our slugger back. Starting some guys not even Astros fans know. And yet...a 12-2 record against first-place teams and leading the West by a country mile. If that's not fun, what in July baseball is?
  20. Next to maybe the Yankees, is there a better feeling than depantsing the Dodgers in their own park as Smoltz stifles nausea with every Altuve hit and Betts gaffe? Methinks not.
