  1. Absolute ass kicking today by the bats
  2. Same, and I'm honestly surprised more of us don't have the same perspective, especially the olds. Perhaps it's a matter of getting older and not being affected as much, but we endured so many damn heartbreaking losses in Houston sports that 2019 doesn't even register much on my sports heartbreak richter scale. Yeah I was pretty bummed about it but I still remember that feeling immediately after of still savoring the 2017 WS and thinking at least we had that one, not to mention all the playoff winning that led up to it. Shit, we couldn't win playoff dick during the Biggio/Bagwell era and yet by Halloween 2019 we'd won our first World Series and been to three consecutive ALCS, so that gut punch game 7 loss wasn't nearly as painful or permanent as the Oilers debacle or the 1980, 1986, and 1998 Astros teams.
  3. things got interesting in
  4. Yainer Diaz GRAND SLAM Stros crushing the Cards today 8-1 in the 2nd Also this This guy is our next Springer
  5. RBI double for Abreu. We're gonna love this guy in our lineup this year.
  6. This is wild to me because having lived all those and more, 2019 doesn't come close to the top of my list. Yeah it sucked to lose all four home games against an inferior wild card team but I can't agree with anything but the Buffalo debacle at the top of the list, followed by the Coogs losing in '83.
  7. Y'all keep hating on Maton because he's going to be a good one season I think. He's been excellent this spring to the tune of a 0.00 ERA and 0..462 WHIP in 4..1 IP. He's faced 15 batters and allowed 2 H, 0 BB, and 5 K.
  8. Dirden's lefty bat/power potential and defense elevates him over Leon. He's going to get his chances.
  9. Yep. That blue gold shit is TRASH and it makes me want to piss on lawns when all the kids pine for those "throwbacks." Those should be thrown away and burned forever.
  10. Dirden keeps hitting. Double down the RF line
  11. Jairo Solis is starting today in place of Hunter Brown. I'm old enough to remember when he was a highly regarded prospect who kept bogarting a spot on the 40-man forever while recovering from multiple TJ surgeries or some shit. He hasn't pitched since 2018.
  12. strongly agree with all of this those ppl are weird. they probably line up for bbq at 6 am.
  13. Have y'all talked about how the world audience almost saw that dude fall from the upper deck?
  14. damn that dude was hustling down the line
  15. anyone got a link?
