    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:

With an Ort and an Otto, we really need to sign somebody named Should. 

Detroit walked in a run in the first and Seattle has 1 hit and is winning 1-0 in the 8th. They want to be us so bad.

Tigers come back and win in last at bat again. 3 up 

I hope they get hot, I'd rather face them than the royals.  But fuck it lets just catch that 1 or 2 seed.

Doesn't apply if:

  • He throws 100 pitches
  • He gives up four or more earned runs
  • He gets injured (with a required IL stint

We're gonna limit injuries by making starters endure longer innings when it's clear they don't have it that start.  Pitchers definitely aren't going to overthrow when they are trying to avoid getting shelled.

Did Seattle play in Japan back at the beginning of the season? 
They seem to always be a game or 2 ahead of us in total games played.

Good, he can keep pitching for them.  I'm sure they'll be happy for the help.

The Space Cowboys are up 16.5 games in their division, they can afford some Montero outings.

So you're telling me I shouldn't be impressed by Whitley's scoreless streak?

Just saw this. Manfred is a jackass. Injuries aren’t a thing at all. Dumb

JFC, what a buncha fucking morons running this clown show. FML.

The idiots have taken over everything now, and they're enshittening it all at warp speed.

This will never happen. No worries.

What’s the reasoning on why this 6 inning rule is needed ?

Not enough pitchers getting hurt. Duh!

Justin Verlander final line in rehab start for the Hooks:

4 IP | 4 H | 1 ER | 0 BB | 5 K

He threw 57 pitches, 41 for strikes. Velocity was in the mid 90s. #Astros

Our playoff odds are sitting at 84% currently. What a rollercoaster of a season

yeah this was me at the beginning of the season

Penn Murfee's outing tonight for Fayetteville was not as positive as Verlander's outing for the Hooks.

 

0.1 IP 3 H 4 ER 1 BB 1 K on 19 pitches. (12 strikes).

So long Chas or Diaz ….

 

Well Whitcomb doesn’t play OF so Diaz 

The Astros philosophy under Dana is to call up hot bats and figure out defense/position when they get here. Makes every minor leaguer think they could get the call up at any time. Dezenzo was only in Sugar Land for 11 days.

He's going to play the OF for the Astros.

More balls in play, fewer anonymous relievers, more entertaining baseball

Just meant the timing.

2017:

August 25: Harvey.

August 31: JV trade.

Sept 5: First JV Astros start 

 

back that up ~two weeks:

2024:

August 11: no hurricane

August 15: 2nd JV rehab start

~August 21: First JV Astros start since June 9

How dare you spit on the good, good name of Parker Mushinski

Fewer Pressly appearances, I think.

We have to clear a spot on the 40-man, but no problems we have this list of shitty players to choose from 

  1. Aledmys Diaz
  2. Oliver Ortega (60-day)
  3. Bennett Sousa (60-day)
  4. Nick Hernandez
  5. Jasnson Junk
  6. Luis Contreras
  7. Parker Mushinski
  8. Jacob Amaya
  9. Cooper Hummel
  10. Trey Cabbage
  11. Grae Kessinger

I would offer that these 11 guys would struggle to find a 40-man spot in any of the other MLB organizations.

Plenty of space on 26 man too. Tells you how bad the end of the roster is. Anybody that bats behind Meyers in the order probably shouldn’t be in the major leagues. Plenty of room for someone that can hit and catch a fly ball.

Don't touch my Junk, Dana!

The theory is that pitchers know they have to make it to 6 and won't rely on velocity as much (which is ostensibly why there are more injuries), meaning the above, theoretically.  I think it's dumb, and I doubt people change the way the pitch.

Not as funny as Turturro, Mavs Mask Fan, or rapping Jazz fan. But humorous. 

If anybody has a link to Mavs or Jazz fans’ videos I would it appreciate because that shit is hilarious.

Welp, I lost my DirecTV piggyback, when my neighbor's mom ended her sub. Went back to the pirate streams for a couple of days, but fuck that shit. Got MLB.TV & Surfshark. Seems like it works great, at least for on demand games. We'll see how it goes tonight. Seems like the most cost-effective route for me. /csb
