id rather have framber over correa 

just so the thread can bitch every year about him and wanting to trade him

I don’t think anyone wants to trade Framber for any other reason than he’s gonna be another one who leaves with nothing in return. If they sign him that would be great. I like winning.

Late July 2022, we got swept by the A's.  Obviously, it won't happen because today is Gusto Day, but I won't even be upset if history repeats itself.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Maybe I would be fucking pissed.

No way we can lose on Gusto day. Bet the house on the astros.

They're gonna have to lengthen the pitch clock or come up with some kind of rule change.  It clear the current situation isn't tenable for starting pitchers.  It's not just happening to the Astros, though no one has it this bad.  Most human beings just can't throw as hard as they can at the current rate pitchers are expected to.

Or they can watch tape from 25+ years ago and learn how to pace themselves, not go max effort every pitch, and pitch to contact more.  It would be good for the game too which is at least a secondary benefit of the pitch clock.  If there are any Luhnow type thinkers out there, there are already orgs moving in that direction.

Sweet. More home runs.

Trading for Correa would fit Crane's MO of avoiding the good years of long term deals only to turn around and sign up for guys at the age of the back half that you're supposed to be afraid of.

That said, I'd be down.

Why on earth would they trade for Correa?

16 games in a row in not scoring first 

This should be really hard to do. However, we not only do it, we make it look easy. Not saying it's a product of starting a neutered lineup or a journeyman pitcher, but...wait, that's exactly what I'm saying.

Please don’t get swept

I predicted 4-3 this week. 7 of the last 8 weeks on the pod I’ve nailed the record. The only one I didn’t I said 5-1 the week before the All Star break and we went 1-5. Whoops.
