  1. Which one of you drunk motherfuckers had their money on Machete for 2nd home run?
  2. Which one of you drunk motherfuckers had their money on Reddick for first home run?
  3. Stros' use the compensatory pick from losing Gerrit Cole to the Yankees on a high school pitcher from the Bronx. That's some "Fuck the Yankees" energy if I've ever seen it.
  4. Brian McTaggart @brianmctaggart · 5m Bryan Abreu was downright nasty in his first outing of the spring. He struck out four of the six batters he faced swinging. Abreu threw 30 pitches (21 strikes).
  5. Getting blasted on social media. Should have just shut the fuck up, let the reports of the other teams doing it come to light, and gone about their business.
  6. This press conference is fucking stupid. Shut your fucking mouths and go win another World Series.
  7. Bauer goes off on Manfred Don't care for Tyler Bauer, but I agree with all of this. Manfred is an asshat.
  8. Losing Luhnow was always my biggest concern when this shit popped up. When he wasn't fired, I was relieved. Then pissed Crane fired him. But Crane was the one that hired him in the first place, so I might as well give him the benefit of the doubt. Luhnow is going to turn some other club into a power after his ban is lifted, but the groundwork for the team to be great into the future is still in place. The rest of Luhnow's staff is still in the front office. It's not like those guys forgot overnight what they were doing.
  9. Got an update on my phone saying Keuchel apologized for what happened.
  10. https://twitter.com/jareddiamond/status/1216849225864138754?s=20 Luhnow saying he had nothing to do with it, and the bench coach orchestrated all of it. So long Cora.
  11. what in the actual fuck did he just say
  12. Taubman is a big piece of shit and he's gone, so who's the assistant GM? Help us Joe Espada, you're our only hope.
  13. Tags: On Correa possibly being traded, jeff Luhnow said he'd be "surprised if we moved any of our core players." He said Correa called him and asked him about trade rumors yesterday. Luhnow told him to enjoy his honeymoon and not worry.
  14. I remember one of their relievers shut us the fuck down. Don't remember who.
  15. Jake Kaplan @jakemkaplan · 17m The Astros have agreed to a one-year deal with free agent catcher Dustin Garneau, pending a physical, a source tells The Athletic.
  16. My biggest problem with the whole thing is that those titles read as "The Astros are using technology to steal signs.... and so is everyone else." But everyone seems to stop reading at Astros stealing signs, and are trying to hang them for it. Fiers is out there being Fiers telling everyone the Astros are the fucking satan, while other players across the league are saying "hey man, everyone does that shit." https://twitter.com/theaceofspaeder/status/1195060364230242304?s=20
  17. I'm not worried about this team finding a few under the radar SP's to bolster the rotation. Verlander-Greinke is nothing to shake a stick at, a healthy McCullers, Urquidy in the back end, and Sanchez back midseason to give some depth. Whitley has been damn good in the Fall League, and somehow everyone is forgetting about Cristian Javier destroying motherfuckers in Corpus. I love Josh Reddick, but maybe it's time for him to go. His postseason hitting was atrocious (which is saying a lot with all of Houston's LOB), but maybe it's time to give Kyle Tucker the everyday spot. A Brantley/Springer/ Tucker outfield, supplemented by Jake and Yordan is a fast, power hitting outfield. Last night sucked hard, but it's not like because we lost 1/2 WS in three years somehow this organization doesn't know what it's doing anymore. Moves in the off season are going to be painful, but that's what this team does. They're going to keep winning for a long time. We're just going to have to get used to that.
  18. So much fucking this. I watched the first Astros WS on a CRT when we got swept. But it gave me hope. When we won in 2017, I knew Houston was headed in the right direction. This organization has never been to two WS, let alone two in three years. We're going to compete for a long time. The organization finds Verlanders, Coles, and drafts well. Next man up. Sometimes the bats go cold. No discredit to the Nats, they found holes, but they also hit the foul pole twice on HR's. That's baseball. It's a game of failing 2/3 times is a positive. I believe in Hinch and Luhnow. We can question, but it's baseball. If it was easy the yanks would win every year. HTOWN HOLDS DOWN.
  19. What in the actual fuck was that strike? How is that excusable?
  20. Leaving that many on has fucked us. The only players I trust on this team right now are Altuve and Harris. One of them was a foot from a foul ball that blew this open. Blame Hinch all you want, but the bats have been cold. This isn't over.
  21. The fuck was that strike two you big dumb bitch.
  22. Bregman got shit for taking the bat to first base last night (as he should), but Soto stomping around the box like a t-rex is horseshit too.
  23. Wow. That ball was 4 inches out. Thanks asshole
  24. That's reviewable but a bat hitting a catchers glove isn't? Ok then.
