  • This postseason has become more sentimental for me and my wife's family.  My father in law is the biggest Astros fan I know.  He watches every game without fail, even DVRing them if he can't watch liv

25 yo / OF. This is a tough roster to make, maybe he makes a hard push next year 

Watching MLB Central this AM and they were talking about Springer going on the IL and how he is the heart of the team and that the Jays aren’t the same without him.  And it made me sad.

Same, only silver lining is that he played just 78 games last season as he enters the IL this season. 

We should move Brantley to 60 day DL 

Send Meyers down

Start Chas the majority of games at CF 

Pick up Marisnick for nothing to be the back up CF/OF

It’s why the Astros didn’t make huge efforts to sign him. He’d had an injury history, and it didn’t figure to get better as he gets older. It sucked to lose him, because we all loved Springer, but it was probably the right decision by the Astros. In 2 seasons in TOR, he hasn’t been dependable.

I think it's like a big cat with no dick.

As for Springer, I think it's cool he's tied for 10th in career WS homeruns.  I hope he makes at least one more to make a run at the top 5.

Old Rake Farm > new Rake Farm

Batting is a wash and he’s still a better defender. Actually his batting is better than new Jake. Same role he had last time. I wouldn’t hate it.

No surprise. Hard to pass a physical without a spine. 

I’m not normally one to bitch about lineups but I’m tired of seeing Meyers in there.

Machete is apparently 9 for 18 against the rangers starter today

I think they are giving Yuli all the rope. It's out of respect for him and what he's done. I think everyone is hoping that he's close to what he's been come playoff time.

With Meyers, he is still an unknown with too few at bats and coming off an injury.  They need to give him playing time and ABs to see where he's going to be in October.  I also think the front office really wants him to succeed to prove they were right.

I don't really GAF about the lineup during the regular season any more. Part of me wants to win every game, sure, but I'd rather win the World Series.

For fucks sake Dusty (and he told MT today that he calls in the lineups) what the fuck are you doing sitting Chas against a lefty? He's literally our second best hitter against left handers this year.

OF course he is.  Just like last year seemingly starting Castro against every lefty he could find.  It makes no sense.

This is a good point. Everything Dusty does with the lineup is nonsense and ass-backwards. It is not worth worrying about it.

Got 2 sets of 2 (or 1 set of 4 maybe) for Thursday day game against the Rangers.  Free.  Shoot me a PM if you are interested.  

This Meyers thing is getting ridiculous. Let him work it out in winter ball.

We're gonna have a tough time against Perez imo. He gives this lineup fits.

Been a while since a leadoff Altuve HR

Fuck Perez. We gonna fuck him up. Yordan bout to go bonkers

Been a while since a leadoff Altuve HR
Speaking of leadoff homers

Semien just proved why i fucking despise guys with power red light on 3-0. It is normally set on a tee for you and our guys just stand there. Then it seems like they either foul off the 3-1 or miss it....then K.

Swing the bat on 3-0 if you are a power hitter.

This guys real name is fucking Leslie

Day off did wonders for this team 🙄

Let Urquidy only pitch even numbered innings

Urquidy with an odd blend of BBs, HRs and Ks, of which only one is advisable. 

This home plate ump is mildly retarded jesus christ

This day has turned shitty.   Popped a crown off my tooth this afternoon and now the Astros are getting bent over.   

This offense has been in a tailspin. Pathetic. Dusty’s shitty lineups are biting us in the ass at the worst time 

Umpires are such fucking assholes. Jake clearly fouled the ball off his shin and HPU refuses to ask for help saying “I saw it”. 
if there was any Justice they would have called it a foul and Jake could have promptly struck out on the next pitch as it was an 0-2 count. 

Some bullshit beggar’s HBPs in this game.  

Seems like August always goes this way for this team.
