Abreu heard the Abreu news so Abreu went back to sucking like Abreu 

I think that was Luhnow's Last Theorem:  you can have one good Abreu, but never two

    Pretty perfect game to take a three year old to. Was over before he got too bored and got to see a couple homers. Thanks @UTPhil2006 for the suggestion about the first game certificate, had plenty of

    I’m just glad I survived another season of being the official thread starter. Thank you all for your continued support in this emotional time.   In more ways than one with tonight’s result:

The walk was the only problem with the inning.  The rest was a bunch of babip fuckery.  The flyout to the track was the best hit ball of the inning by far.  

Not pulling him after the walk was the biggest problem with the inning.

Rake farm!! 

Maybe he'll get at least 3 more games of not having to sit for Dubon.

His baserunning leaves something to be desired.

Contact play with 1 out

Ted!!

Looked like a Berkman oppo Crawford box special

Now we can preserve the bullpen and leave Abreu in until he walks the bases loaded. 

Yordan!  Nice slide.

I mean lulz

But why are we letting our big dude steal with a 5 run lead

If we don’t re-sign King Tuck I’m going to be depressed for a long time. He deserves a 10 year deal and I’m confident it’d be a good deal for us.

I’m gonna have to go to Spotrac to see what the longest contract the Astros have ever given. 

My guess is that it is years less than 10. Plurally of course. 

Lets get this one boys. 

Then we’re gonna give the Angels the beating they’ve grown accustomed to from the Astros, regardless of whether they have that overrated Trout in the lineup or not. Or Ohtani. Fucking pound them. 

No lube. 

And yes neither will be in uniform. Lol.

Hot take, but the Astros are going to resign Tucker, he's the first guy we'll have hit the market that's a no brainer to do so with.  He also hits the counting stats Bagwell is fond of as well as the advanced nerd ones he's not.  So he does what everyone in the front office likes on some level.  10-340 will be a no brainer with a higher first year trailing down to the end.

that is a hot take

I think if we don't it will be because he didn't want to, not because the Astros didn't give me a good number

Something tells me Tuck is not happy with the arbitration 2 years back. 

I think that's going to be on the back his mind. 

That was foolish. 

Keep winning series. 

Seattle lost so we gain back the game we gave up yesterday.

It will probably be because they don't offer ten years.

A guaranteed winning homestand with 3 more to go against the Angels is nice.

He's a grown adult that knows this is a business.  I didn't like it because of the optics, but I don't think it's going to be a deal breaker in the end.  

Bringing Abreu back is wrong. 

He is a cancer. And what happens when you don't address it aggressively and early?

It spreads. 

Breggy I'm looking at ya.

Yeah I fucking hate it.  He's one conversation with Chandler Rome away from getting in everyone's head again too.

San Francisco is waiting for him. 

They’ll do 10.

On the one hand you're not wrong.

On the other, it's not your 38MM that's being lit on fire if you do.  If they think they saw something in him and he can contribute then I have to respect the professional org evaluators.  Now did they see enough to put him in the starting lineup?  Or did anyone in the org say he would be in the starting lineup?  I haven't seen that if so

They are 12-7 since getting rid of that shithead, 9-19 with him.

 A 9-1 home stand would be very gruntling.
