    there's so much to unpack from today, so i'll just start listing them. tuesday was devastating for oakland, today was twice as devastating for the yankees.  they had just started to play better.

    The boy and I were at the last ALCS clincher - we were walking on air for days after Altuve’s walkoff. Today, the boy is 5,000 miles and 7 hours away, with no way to watch. So we did a video chat, w

  • Enjoy it. Old Altuve, no more Correa means this is the very end of the road for your tainted dynasty.

So, I bitch at Dusty a lot but he managed this one perfectly down the stretch. Has nothing to do with win or loss or results. pR at the right time. PH at the right time. Used his relievers in the correct sequence.

He’s not even going to make the playoffs roster. He’s like our 12th best pitcher. He can shut the fuck up. 

Yeah its because no one wants to see you get shelled the 3rd time through the lineup dickwad....regardless if you had 100 pitches or 66.

Lol. Fuck him. 

He's pissed because he has incentives in his contract and he probably feels like the organization is intentionally depriving him of the opportunity to hit those numbers. 

"I think it's pretty frickin obvious. I mean, go take a look at it."

I'm not defending what he said or the wisdom of saying all that publicly before airing out his grievances with Dusty, Strom, and Click, but he has a point when he said "I'm glad we won because I would've been blamed for only going five innings."

He's pissed at the organization--which is obviously not ideal--but in his frustration he's taking a shot at the fans as well. This is a very bad development. 

I couldn't find his 2021 contract incentives, only for 2022, so I'd be curious what the details are.

It’s ludicrous to even imply that Odorizzi’s usage is tied to contract incentives. They are in a pennant race and are going to do what is best to achieve that immediate goal.

I'm not implying that is the reason Dusty yanks him, I'm implying that's why he is mad about getting yanked. 

Lipstick on a pigspeak from Click.

For 23.5 million dollars, I'll show you what a fierce competitor I am and how badly I want that damn baseball.

I want guys that don’t suck. I hated the OFO signing as pointless from the word go. Take the 20 you are going to give whatever shortstop you Shon on the market and add Odo’s 20 to it and you can bring back Correa. I’m beginning to low key hate click.

Lots wrong here. Odorizzi was signed when it was thought that Framber would be out for, at least, the majority of the season. It wasn’t pointless at the time. Secondly, it is stupid to say that not signing Odorizzi to 3/$23M would free up the $300M needed to sign Correa.

Agreed but his comments suggest he distrusts the organization, which is not good right now. He should've kept his mouth shut and addressed it privately. 

That bitch can stay at home and get his playoff share and regular season participation ribbon just like Rat Fiers.

We had 5 guys without framber. 
Every $10 million a year helps.

So before the season you were expecting Luis Garcia to be a reliable starter in the rotation?

Not necessarily him but someone. I went on record the day of the signing. Hated it from the word go.

And he’s counting Javier as a starter.

And Bielack. And possibilitt

of Framber coming back. And Martes. And a bunch of other arms we could throw at the problem to find a credible 5th starter. 
And making a trade at the deadline if none of that worked. 

When you have 4 arms you trust and a bunch of guys knocking on the door you don’t have to have all 5 starters wired on opening day. We could have had $10 million in additional capital to use at the trade deadline or make a better offer to correa. 
I didn’t know Garcia would be great. But I knew we had enough options we didn’t need to do that.

Big whoop.

 

It's a whoop when they cry to the media, especially when that media is already predisposed to the narrative that the Astros organization is big evil meanies.

Welp, pretty obvious now we won’t have to wait around a couple of years to find out if there are any sign stealing shenanigans this year….

Day game going for the sweep?

I think we all know how this is gonna go.

PSA You can easily switch the audio feed to Ford and Sparks on YouTube. Go to ... Then choose audio track  then check  Home

Wish you could change the broadcast feed.  The scoreboard is in the wrong place and I hate it.

Yordan is in a bad funk.  He's swinging at pitches at his ankles and taking meatballs for strikes.

Well, probably wont' see that again this year. Tucker triple had an expected BA of .000. Fan almost ruined it.

Hope security is escorting that guy out of the building soon, moron.
