  1. Clearly the answer is to abolish all laws, since criminals don’t follow them anyway.
  2. Best atmosphere in the game is back btw
  3. Thats a long way of saying “I’m a bandwagoner”. I like & support exactly 1 MLB team, and have supported them all my life since I became a baseball fan. And let me spell out what I meant with my original comment, because no offense but I don’t think you’re intelligent enough to get it… The Pirates are calling up Skenes because he can help them win now. The Astros NEVER did that with their prospects. They tanked and tanked and let players that could’ve helped languish in the minors so the MLB team could keep losing and climb up the draft boards, where ubergenius and baseball God Jeff Luhnow used his super ultra advanced baseball analytics acumen to draft future MLB stars Mark Appel & Brady Aiken 1st overall.
  4. 2003 Eric Gagne. And as with all non-Rivera closers, he completely fell off the wagon soon after
  5. Yeah that’s going to be a hit, already getting some pretty intense buzz. Looks like a perfect summer movie
  6. Typing this as Bregman softly lines out to Torres to end the inning
  7. There’s that whole “he can help us win baseball games” thing. But I know as an Astros fan you aren’t used to viewing prospects like that
  8. Yeah so he meets my criteria then. I was just saying in general those are the rules I’d follow
  9. Imo it’s dumb to offer any freshman that isn’t of a freakish size, a track star, or has already made an impact at the varsity level.
  10. I’ve never heard a broadcast crew say that a 10-1 deficit was purely due to bad luck, but the Astros crew was certainly saying that tonight. Stanton was just lucky his 119 mph line drive cleared the fence.
  11. Astros announcers are massive vaginas. Crying that about a clear ball on judge being called a ball.
  12. Verlander is literally our bitch.
  13. They’ve already been arrested. Doesn’t sound like it’s cartel related, looks like it was a group of 3 possibly part of a gang that had been going around carjacking people in the area recently. Some of the locals are upset because they say they’ve complained about this gang before yet the police never did anything about them until this happened.
  14. I agree. I don’t know if the law sees it that way though.
  15. I read it as bitchass customer was screaming at workers, Limmer starts cussing at bitchass customer. If true, not a great idea. Still noble to divert anger away from workers though.
  16. Apparently the two actually went outside and the altercation turned physical, then the agitator went to his car and got a gun. In Texas it does not matter how or who starts a fight, if you feel threatened you can respond with force if it’s reasonable. A fight with a stranger could constitute fear for life, will be interesting to see how it plays out.
  17. The Cavazos stuff is besides the point. I noticed first hand how Kellen Mond’s throwing mechanics didn’t improve. JJ McCarthy also still came out of there with a wonky throwing motion.
  18. I’m well on record about Cavazos and know his story better than anyone. His dad Carlos actually impressively conned his way into being Nebraska’s Director of Football Ops, where he was fired after one season last year. Lejond was his youngest kid, he moved his other kids to high schools all over the state because he kept pissing off coaching staffs. Lejond was the best out of all of them and a legit track star, he just couldn’t get out of his own way. Tldr; IMG is overrated and if you suck or you’re a shithead it won’t help you. There’s a reason they don’t make their full roster available online, so their bust rate is hard to track.
  19. Was IMG going to let him play baseball too? If not that’d be basically slamming the door shut entirely on one lucrative career option. I’m pretty jaded on IMG after watching Kellen Mond. I saw him play a bit at San Antonio Reagan before he left to IMG for his senior year. Was pretty shocked to see him again as a freshman at A&M with the exact same weird fucked up throwing motion he had at Reagan coupled with the same panicky pocket presence. Made me wonder if they even taught him anything new. Same with Lejond Cavazos, he spent 3 years at IMG and has sucked in college and is currently looking for his 3rd school.
  20. Nailed it. I don’t get how you can choose your only high school experience playing for your hometown school in front of all your family and friends every Friday vs playing at a boarding school 1000 miles away. It’s what makes me laugh at people that think Arch Manning or Quinn Ewers are the answer, who chose to play at their local schools. Non-competitors, both of them. We should’ve gone all-in on IMG QB Jayden Bradford instead, who’s going to win a heisman at Liberty.
  21. I’m sure the A’s negative run differential won’t catch up to them at any point this year. Good call.
  22. I’m not criticizing him for helping out his son. But he talks down on incel-type men while describing all the things he did to help out his son socially, not considering the fact that millions of young people don’t have that level of parental support or guidance. When I was a teen and young adult I had no father around to ask about how to dress nice or to push me in school or to be sociable or what to do on a date.
