  1. Ford and Sparks talking about the exact trip I took to Detroit this time of year a couple of years ago. ford museum hitting the Motown museum impressed at how good the city/downtown area is doing
  2. Yainer DP talk not going away
  3. This is a great description of what watching this 2025 team has been like
  4. Wtf was that. I have never seen a worse running baseball team
  5. Bet on beginning of next homestand (but “setback” still has the shortest odds)
  6. I posted this yesterday at 12:50
  7. https://www.wsj.com/sports/baseball/houston-astros-dynasty-altuve-correa-241b7e00?st=cQ3Byo&reflink=article_copyURL_share The Baseball Dynasty That Refuses to Die In the years since the Astros won their first World Series title, they’ve lost their GM, their manager and a bunch of key players. But with the stretch run approaching, they’re somehow back where they always are.
  8. Lol what are the odds
  9. Lulz at Puhl talking about these two games right now
  10. He got the flu! phewwww was wondering why Pena had been around the locker room.
  11. Fastball was way down, especially that last inning
  12. Radio talking about Espada saying de los santos probably unavailable today because he threw 2 innings yesterday. Why? He threw 13 pitches
  13. Fuck dubin about to come in
  14. No. Ford didn’t ask about corresponding moves and Dana didn’t offer
  15. Dana: Hader: have him for 3 more years, have to be careful with this one, particularly when it's the shoulder. allow him to rehab and see what that looks like. 3 weeks seems like an eternity this time of year but hopefully we can get him back, do something down the stretch or in the postseason Abreu: main thing is leverage opportunities. sometimes the 8th, sometimes the 9th. most of the time it's the 9th. very difficult to get last 3 outs. feel very comfortable with him. has closer stuff Sousa: live and die with the slider. yesterday, got one in the middle of the plate and got the best of him. been good since he's been up. has that look in his eyes "I'm not going back to the minors". needs to mix in a fastball a little more often to set up the slider. Yordan: Yee haw...we got him going. go Tuesday, give him a day off, then go back-to-back to see how he reacts to that. Seeing him go on this rehab is a good thing, means he's not feeling any pain. He's in a good mood. Re: position: focused on him hitting. not too worried about field right. need his bat. goal is to get him back as soon as possible. May see him the back end of the road trip. confident for the next home series. but need to see how he reacts and feels. LMJ: having discussions about next steps with him now. and Garcia. and France. going through it daily with the front office and coaching staff to see who should come back first. Lance may be first, but still talking through it. At some point, will see all 3 back. Garcia: will get another minor league start at least. LMJ has been pitching a good part of the season. just about figured it out, but still having conversations. probably LMJ, then Garcia, and the France. Not fully decided, but would make the logical sense.
  16. Players weekend fail not having someone nicknamed “Dirty” and having him batting 3rd today
  17. When that happens they’ll change the rule. Until then, good luck. the players union doesn’t want it to go back. The owners don’t care (concessions have been shut down). There just isn’t anyone that wants it except fans like us that pine for the days when a team would play 22 innings one night and come back for a day game that goes 13 innings the next https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/HOU/HOU198906030.shtml https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/HOU/HOU198906040.shtml
  18. Hard to beat Target Field and Comerica in mid to late August
  19. I can neither confirm nor deny that #13 was warming up to come in for the 13th had Urias not walked it off
  20. JV with his best start of the year 7.0 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BBs, 8 Ks, 88 pitches
