Tough start for the Astros this year, but honestly I think the bullpen is showing signs of improvement compared to last season. The offence is streaky, but if they can get consistent production from the middle of the order, they’re still in the mix for a solid playoff push. Curious to see how the new pitching rotation holds up once we get deeper into September.

I saw a few years back there was a Bobby Shantz day in Philly area and I wanted to try and see when the next one was going to be because i had thought about going up there to get his auto in my book of all Astros that I have 80+ signatures. Never materialized. Went to Philly this summer and looked it up and actually tried to send a message to someone associated with him to try and see if there was a way to get in person auto and never got reply.

Getting the franchises 1st ever winner in my book would be pretty badass, but doesnt look like it will happen.

We're struggling against a pitcher with an ERA close to 7.

Why are we failing to mash the ball against this stiff? I know he pitches a lot in thin air, but his stats wouldn't be great for a slow-pitch softballer. Somebody start raking.

gives bagwell time to tell more stories 

I’d like to hear his stories about hitting Men’s Club and Treasures in the 90s and how ended up marrying a stripper.

@Wulaw Horn we need you and your podcast buddy to write “Why I hate this team version 2.0”. Bringing the hate helped fuel our run in June and we need a wave of hate to finish this season on a kick.

and a lecture on why we are all idiots for scoreboard watching our AL West rivals in the Pacific NW

Right now it's looking like we might finish it on a Bert Auburn kick.

It doesn’t matter if we are 3rd or 6th.  Or anywhere in between. 2nd matters and 7th matters.

the fuck?

of course it matters. yeah, it matters more to be a top 2 seed and avoid an entire playoff rd but the rankings 3-6 still matter.
