When j saw Stanton’s laser yesterday was 119.9 I was wondering if anyone had ever had one harder
Nope. Arrighetti can claim allowing the hardest hit ball ever recorded

Wtf are we doing.
If we blow this, add “stupid early game challenge” to the list of dumb ways we’ve found to lose games this year .

Seriously, that opening scene at the rodeo is the most ridiculous thing I've seen in years. Every one of the cell phones would have blown up at least 15 minutes before that thing touched down. Hell, they have enough warning any more they'd have probably postponed it before anything even got close.
Excuse me sir, that’s now how this works. That’s now how any of this works
flying cow out front from the first movie should have told ya.

I thought after 2022, they were going to go on a heck of run. In reality it was just that a whole bunch of dudes had their career year at the same time.
Just like 2017

How the Baltimore Orioles Pulled Off an Astronomical Turnaround
The Orioles followed the Astros’ playbook in their rise from laughingstock to championship contender. Now, with Houston faltering, the students have become the masters.

We’re two weeks ahead of the ‘19 Nats on getting to 12 games under
hoping that means the rebound starts earlier and we sniff .500 earlier.
but still not panicking until at least Memorial Day.
Haven’t even played the A’s or Angels yet. Now, if we don’t go 7-3 in the 10 games we have against them before Memorial Day, yeah. Might be time to look at selling

I don't know what it is, but this team seems to have no juice. No fucks given, win or lose.
For what it’s worth, I’d have a hard time giving a fuck too after playing ~180 games for each of the last 7 years. Cant blame em for some natural burnout but that’s where a good manager earns his keep.

The farm is in shambles. Very little of that is Dana’s fault.
I’d take Luhnow back in a second but let’s not let him skate on the cheating scandal and losing first and second round picks in ‘20 and ‘21.sure 4 picks don’t make your system, but that is absolutely crushing when you are trying to keep a window open and should be the first thing pointed out when people complain about Astros getting off light for the scandal.
I can make an argument that single handedly took a couple of years off the window

9-4 with bases loaded and no outs would be a lot better than 9-4 with 2 on with 1 out

Kalas and Blum sound so depressed

120 MPH

😂😂😂

After that get me over curve to start off the AB to Judge that he’s lucky Judge took instead of hitting 513 feet, Arrighetti looked pretty good

If you are gm at all star break and astros are below 500 by 10 games. What do you do?
Depends on where the wild card leaders are sitting and if you think 89 wins is the magic number to get in the AL playoffs like it was last year, or if you think it will be lower. (I think it will be lower but probably not by much).
To go from 10 under at the ASB to finish with 89 wins means playing .700 (46-29) ball for 2.5 months. Uhhhh
That said, I think they’ll hold tight to hoping something miraculous happens because the farm is so barren, a deadline deal or two to try and re-stock some of the system isn’t going to do shit

Why are the Pirates calling up Skenes now?
too late for ROY draft pick consideration . Too early for Super 2, no?

The problem is, his twitch starting point is worse than Blue Jays Home Plate Lady

Is it a requirement that Seth Martinez pitches every single game? Dude has to have more innings than some of our starters at this point
Only arrighetti (beilak has more IP than him too).
but Framber only has 2.2 IP more than martinez. Javier 3.1.

We haven’t even played the Angels or A’s
(or White Sox for that matter).
They’ll get back in the thick of things.
I’m eying the last two weeks in August as make or break.
We’ll know what we have in LMJ and Garcia by then when we have a 7 game road trip to Baltimore and Philly before returning home for 4 against KC who I think are going to be pesky all year
