  1. The obvious answer is Melton is a better prospect .
  2. Counter, counterpoint, a rookie is carrying this club tonight. Best players need to be on the field at the end of the year, not as if he didn't have a nice long break middle of the season .
  3. I didn't look at the starting line up and just noticed no Jeremy Pena. Mother and Child Joe, what the fuck are you doing and I don't care what the situation is, when you have 15 games to go in a season in which you are tied for first and the only way you are making the play offs there is no fucking excuse for a paid athlete to not be at there short of death. Crane needs to clear out the orange slice and participation trophy mentality from this club.
  4. I see he hired Russell Crowe as his personal trainer.
  5. Padres would have it done and the ink already dry.
  6. So it seems for the Astros hand soreness is about as contagious as staph.
  7. We all do and I wasn't happy the first time I was playing golf with our son and instead of dropping down a club to show I still could hit with him or even do better I had to club up one or even two clubs. If the player won't recognize it someone has to tell them. Nothing wrong with it, not disrespecting the player.
  8. Agree completely, as I and others have mentioned here before, a younger Altuve would take that outside pitch and drive it to right field. Unfortunately, he now more times than not ends up hitting a weak ground ball to a middle infielder rolling over on top of that pitch.
  9. That has already happened defensively and the base running has followed suit the last month. Almost as if he don't realize he can't run like he once did when younger. I would have compared him to former US men's player Jeff Agoos, but now that i think about it Agoos never could run.
  10. Fixed it for you. Could be wrong, but based upon SNL past history get ready for a high dose of Wickline.
  11. Cole a corner outfielder or can he play center?
  12. Will be very interesting to see what changes the Astros make regardless of the outcome and a big issue is going to be the Altuve contract. They owe him 30M a ear for 2026 and 2027, 25M for 2028, and then 10M in 2029 which is a great deal of money for a guy who is basically a DH. I am not suggesting they trade him, recognize what he has done for the club, and his place in Astro history, but they are going to have some tough choices on what to do with Jose and manage the lineup when they get some of these parts back.
  13. Not sure which was crazier about Clark's career. His win percentage or the amount of races he competed in over multiple classes. He wasn't flying on a private jet or taking a modern train.
  14. They have been doing set build SW of London for a few months, but they aren't going to start up in the Highlands until a month or so.
  15. Murder occurred with such regularity in her vicinity that the term "Cabot Cove syndrome" was coined to describe the constant appearance of dead bodies in remote locations. Indeed, if Cabot Cove existed in real life, it would top the FBI's national crime statistics in numerous categories, with some analysis suggesting that the homicide rate in Cabot Cove exceeds even that of the real-life murder capital of the world
  16. What is the old saying about having shit in both hands? How the hell did Rooney get hurt?
  17. You are a bit confused on Patterson's scheduling before joining the B 12. They would play anyone big conference school that would schedule them and that includes Texas, OU, Nebraska, LSU, Ohio State, Tech, Baylor, Arizona, and Oregon State and not those Baylor teams were with Briles and the Tech teams were with the Pirate, so not exactly the soft touches you lumped us in with and also note Texas, OU, and Nebraska were all at those schools.
  18. So the answer is not a fucking thing happened.
  19. Wait? Is that basically what the Astros are facing right now?
  20. Engine failure isn't crazy nor unheard of with the Merc power unit. Not as frequent as it once was, but consider that Lando just went out the prior race.
  21. Levi gets it, during the early part of the race, both Lando and Oscar easily could have been involved in a crash with Max and then Charles. One DNF from Oscar changes the title race and there is history of such things happening. That is the only precedent that matters.
  22. Which isn't the situation.
  23. Explain to me what happened just last week that opened up this "big" lead? There is NO HISTORY of late season DNFs impacting championships and all titles are won by double digits right?
  24. Oscar has not clinched the title. He has a 31 point lead over Lando with I believe 8 races remaining and while he should be able to hold that lead it is far from clinched as one DNF from Oscar and a Lando win (presuming Max doesn't challenge Lando causing Lando to wet himself) and you have a title fight on your hand. I would offer 2016 as an example of what can go wrong late in the eason that decides a title and I would have loved to hear Toto tell Lewis to flip positions with Niko.
  25. No, Oscar beat Lando off the start for the lead and Lando fell behind I believe George and used up his tires trying to get past him. Because of his poor start and his using up his tires faster than expected McLaren changed strategy pitting Lando earlier than expected by them. Later in the race McLaren decided to pit Lando first not to undercut Oscar, but to undercut Lewis even though Oscar was leading the race and he had the much older tires. I truly don't understand your comment that Lando undercut Oscar fair and square. The team wanted to make the call to get the 1-2, they told Oscar they would switch him back to the lead and it took 20 laps of radio bull shit with Lando before he agreed to give back the spot that would have never happened had he gotten a decent start or not used his tires up too fast early in the race. How in the world can you even think that is the same situation as today?
