  1. If the lineup is healthy, I think you have to slot Pena at #2 Altuve Pena Yordan Bregman Tucker Abreu Chas Diaz Dubon
  2. And yet, where would we be without Dubon's slappy heroics this year?
  3. Assuming Yordan, Altuve, and Pena are all back soon, what Dusty lineup posted on the clubhouse wall would get the surly seal of approval?
  4. we're lucky we don't have two of the latter because this game was emotionally as shitastic as that eight-run lead against Rangers game we blew but rescued with two runs in the ninth. last night was the same fucking game with a worse result.
  5. This is hilarious https://pagesix.com/2023/07/12/rfk-jr-press-dinner-explodes-in-war-of-words-and-farts/
  6. I'm aware but how many games was that an issue?
  7. Anyone else a little worried about Drew Gilbert not adjusting well right now to AA pitching? He's 0-for-9 in his last two games and his slash line for the month of July is .179/.258/.357 in 28 ABs. In 164 AB at CC he has 6 HRs and 3 doubles with a .663 OPS. He was tearing up high A pitching but hasn't had great results with the jump to AA.
  8. Well, yeah. Ours came with the house we bought and I'm damn sure not spending another 2-3k on a new refrigerator until this one fully shits the bed. Aside from the icemaker issues, we have had no problems with it and it has a lot of freezer space. I had a Samsung side-by-side counter-depth in my old house that worked well but didn't even last ten years. When the time comes to purchase a new one, I probably won't be buying a Samsung.
  9. It does make a lot of sense but the problem is most GMs don't want to gamble on a move like that in their own division because if the prospects flop and the trading partner wins a WS with Ohtani, that GM is made a laughingstock and probably out of a job eventually.
  10. And they're stuck with the albatross of Rendon's contract.
  11. nah man it's the Braves who are going to be our dynastic contenders. The unsung savant of the Luhnow era was not Mejdal or Elias, it was Mike Fast. He's had his fingerprints all over both the Astros (2012-2018) and the Braves (2018-current). I wish Crane would bring him back but it feels like some bridges were burned in one direction or another.
  12. 1 800 726 7864 You need to know your model and serial number, they are on the left side of the frame when you open the door.... They may try to walk you through all the troubleshooting steps but just let them know you've done all of that and it's the exact same issue every one of these has. They will enter your product info and then confirm your eligibility and set up an appoint date/time and advise you that you will be contacted by an authorized service technician in your area. Hopefully this fix works, the repair guy assured me it would. He said he does these every day and he had the job finished in less than a half hour.
  13. Did a search, didn't see this posted so obligatory siap..... We have a 2015 Samsung French door model with the icemaker in the refrigerator compartment. Like every other Samsung fridge owner, I've been dealing with the annoying shitastic icemaker for years where it works for a few weeks or a month and then one morning you put your glass under the icemaker and hear that grinding sound with nothing happening. Pull out the ice container and of course there's a huge block of ice wrapped around the sides of the icemaker, blocking any ice from falling into the container. Break chunks of ice, thaw it out with a steamer or hair dryer at low setting, wait for it to all melt, then replace the ice container. Wait a few weeks and then wash rinse repeat the process. I went down a YouTube rabbit hole for permanent fixes (aside from trashing it and buying a different brand) and was prepared to do a big DIY project to fix it myself recently until I discovered that all that work wasn't necessary because Samsung would do it for me. I called them earlier this week and got on a service list and today we had the icemaker fully replaced along with the motherboard. According to the repair tech, this will fix the problem permanently. If you have a Samsung with the icemaker inside the fridge and not the freezer, call Samsung and give them your model and serial number and they will send someone out to make this repair, regardless of warranty status.
  14. yeah right? what the fuck y'all lining up for in the heat outside MMPUS when the Stros are playing in LA tomorrow night?
  15. but why are they wearing Diamondbacks hats?
  16. Yeah I would too. That 1998 team was a juggernaut and fun as hell to watch in the second half of the season after the trade for the Big Unit.
  17. Exactly this. The expectation that Javier and Brown would excel this year has not been met and unless they turn it around quickly, starting pitching becomes the priority at the trade deadline.
  18. And if they can't strike a deal for one, figure out what's wrong with Javier and fix it. Hopefully he is not hiding an injury.
