Who wins in a race between the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus, and a healthy Carlos Correa?
No one, because all 3 don't exist

granted my age group is 4-6 year olds, but for me, it;s ability to make consistent contact. way too young to worry about driving the ball outta the park, but never too young to have an nice fluid swing. i position my top 3-4 kids at 3b, SS, pitcher position, and 1st, at my level most kids are going to be hitting in that general area and if i good up the middle/pull side (for righties), my 1st baseman can just worry about catching the ball, blocking it. for lefties I can shift over my SS behind the pitcher to cover for my 2B.

Oaks Dad's Club, represent. Chuy is back for his second year of spring tee-ball. He's put in a lot of work since last spring season, he made the "all-star team" and played in a couple of tournaments over the summer - one at ODC which they got second and another in Waller that was actually more of a coach-pitch tourney. He did fairly well in it having not hit much live pitching his first of playing. We played fall ball at ODC and went 8-0; much better experience than my first time around coaching.
This will be his last year of teeball before moving onto coach pitch, but has really made some great strides with his swing. I'm biased but he has a really good swing for a 6 year old. We practice at least twice a week. I asked him yesterday what he wanted to work on - defense or offense - and he told me baserunning. One thing ODC does is allow up to 4 "contract" players, which means they don't have to go into the draft and are automatically on a team, usually a pre-determined team ahead of the start of the season. Not entirely sure how i feel about that having been on both side of the spectrum - last year I went into the year with 0 players (got our asses kicked) and this year I will go into spring with 4 contracted, 6 year olds (4-6 y/o is division). Good for my team but maybe not good for overall learning experience for the kids.
anyway, looking forward to it overall. i know Chuy really likes playing and has made a lot of good friends in playing ball. i'm doing everything i can to stay with him as he grows and learns more. pepper brooks' comment about his coaching career ending soon is why i want to spend as much time with him as possible. i already dread the day I won't be his "coach".
fucking baseball, man. it's the best.

best of luck Jake, played hard and gave it his all - was fun as shit to watch him go track down deep fly balls and lay out with his locks flowing.

And for the record, I miss day drinking and then watching our boys play while I write "fuck these assholes" when we dont move a runner over with less than 2 outs

Why does anyone not like JD Davis, he played hard, kept his head down, and wasn't a complete spare. If I remember correctly he walked off a couple of early season games and started to figure it out once he started playing regularly. His problem is he was behind a top 3 AL players on the depth chart. Good egg.

keep diaz, assuming he stays healthy he's pretty much an insurance policy for just about everywhere, plus when correa gets hurt in june, he can fill in ably.

Are we the 5th or 6th best team in Texas?
May not even be the 5th or 6th best team in the Austin area

I don't believe the window's closed at all. Brantley and Yuli are into their mid-thirties, but as they get old, Yordan and Tucker will mature. The rest of the core (Altuve, Springer, Bregman, Correa) are in their primes.
We get LMJ back and Whitley is coming soon.
Yeah, we lost Cole, but this team has signed a huge free agent pitcher three years in a row. Why wouldn't we do it again in '20?
I still think we're entering year 4 of an 8 to 10 year run that will yield 3+ championships. And I refuse to listen to any logic that says otherwise.
brother?

So, I haven't posted on here since game 7 of the WS, which as far as I'm concerned, didn't happen. I took that loss pretty tough and removed myself from the team and the end of this season as much as possible. there was just too much shit going on around the team - on the field and off the field - that i wasn't going to let it consume me and my enjoyment of watching my favorite sports team in my hometown. but, there's just too much shit being thrown around all over the place and just seems as if people - drellich - really have an axe to grind about our team to not say something.
fuck them, fuck everyone who's not in the same boat as the houston astros. i couldn't give less of a shit than what you think or how you want to portray this team. this is my team, my hometown, and really, a big part of my livelihood - maybe to a fault but I can't stand to see all this shit going around national media making the astros out to be some hybrid form of degenerate, misogynists, scumbags and don't deserve to be called world series champs. maybe the collective group of us posters can be called that - and i'm not so blind where I can't see how some of those labels come into play from media who are just looking to throw shit around because it fits their narrative - but there's just a lot of shit and if it smells like shit, it's probably shit. so, no, i won't apologize for being a fan of the houston astros and if anything, should embrace the hate, want to be the team that every teams wants to beat. there's a reason so many teams are poaching our front office or admin staff or coaches. we win.
in summmary, fuck the haters. flags fly forever.

Another thing, I'll never worry again about home field advantage in baseball. Fuck it.

Reminds me of the 2004 Longhorns baseball team. Most talented team of that era, and they couldn't get it done because Fullerton went fuego. And then they lost a lot of guys but came back and won it all in 2005.
