  1. Dusty’s plan to win 5 less games than we should have through lineup decisions was 4D chess. He knew we needed to win the division on the last day with exactly 90 wins, not clinch a playoff spot until game 161, so he could avoid being a 95 win team.
  2. Pro basketball? Isn’t 2 better than 1? I’m also pretty sure the rockets have won more conference championships and division titles (and better overall record probably) and more HOFers associated with their franchise than the Mavs. Are we just figuring the last decade is all that matters or something?
  3. You just described my entire working life. Or, at least what I aspire to my working life being some day.
  4. It was before game 4 during the Phillies series. And no way there’s a copy of that which would ever get out. Would completely break the lockeroom code.
  5. Scattershooting the last two games against the Twins and putting some context on what the Astros have done the last 7 years.

  6. You just quoted the basic dumbest motherucker to ever set foot in houston as a sports writer to support a proposition. You should be ashamed that you know how to access content for that fat, stupid, worthless yankee fuck.
  7. I mean- have the astros are the one team to ever unlock the secret? The diamondbacks just swept the dodgers, the Phillies should have swept the Braves. Southern Oklahoma just laid waste to 2 teams that combined for 200 wins this season after gagging away the division. I think it’s a coinflip. Astros results say different.
  8. There’s only one guy that’s hit in the catcher position this entire postseason and yes- it has been a zero.
  9. In 13 plate appearances maldonado was responsible for 12 outs created. the guy who’s a mental midget he’s responsible for got rocked and sucked. During the course of the year, his pitchers, who are all more accomplished had an era 1/2 a run higher. Yes- he is clearly the reason we are where we are.
  10. Again, it needs to be said: this shit is crazy. Playoff baseball is literally basically a coinflip. To come out the 7 time LDS champs, only with 1 series even going 5 games, is utterly and completely absurd.
  11. I was pretty nervous after 1-1. On paper they had the pitching advantage in the last 3 games. And home field advantage. On paper. But the Astros don’t give a shit. if Framber was our ace this year (and I think he was) then hats off to the other three. They went like 16 and 2/3 and gave up 2 runs. That’s pretty fucking good. Other than Nerris losing his mind in game 1 the bullpen was nails just like last year. The arms are going to need to bring it against the Rangers- that’s a really good lineup. Conversely, their bullpen is awful, their starting rotation is banged up and we just got to string together solid AB’s.
  12. If I’m being honest the 9th with Presley terrifies me.
  13. He’s not the guy he was when he won an mvp. He’s still plenty good enough to be a huge plus as the 7th or 8th best hitter in our lineup next year.
  14. I told y’all Abreu was fixed back in late August. it’s pretty much the entire year explained by injury. He might get hurt again but he’s not washed.
  15. It’s hot because it’s your sister but it’s ok because she’s the step sister. Duh. it is weird. But in half the states lesbian porn is still #1 over incest porn so there you have it @Ghost of LL
  16. That’s the next technical resistance. Let’s hope. No corresponding change on MBS though.
  17. In a vacuum fine. I just don’t like constant reinventing of the wheel.
  18. I mean- that’s fine. Go with Stanek or whoever then. Make it a normal game with people filling roles they have performed all year.
  19. Sure. That was also the first hard hit ball of the inning. thank goodness Peña bailed us out.
  20. Correa hit a 22 hopper through the right side. The crime on that inning was the walk.
  21. Just do what you’ve done all year. Maton can take the 6th as a clean inning and then go Nerris, Abreu, Presley. Don’t need to reinvent the wheel in the playoffs.
  22. If you aren’t going to throw strikes… yeah. So irritating
