Houston Astros 2025 Season Thread
I won’t believe Javier or Garcia is coming back until they have a minor league rehab start. At this point, I can only assume the Astros are using some discount Tommy John doctor for these guys.

Well, he does wear more makeup than most First Ladies so it seems appropriate.

As a Native Texan, it makes me rage that I have to specify Unsweet Tea.

Sit at the bar and order Enchiladas de Tejas with onions and 2 margs with salt results in pralines every time.

The Texpatriates Thread
I’ve run across several whose families moved from South Africa to Australia as apartheid fell apart. That’s a special bunch of assholes.

Probably South Africa - all the asshole Aussies that I’ve met were originally from South Africa.

You still get a praline at the end of your meal at Molina’s in Houston.

That at-bat showed Yordan’s issue - his bat is just under hittable pitches. Maybe he needs Charlie Sheen’s glasses from Major League.

I’m hoping Dubon’s ABs going forward will be limited. Rogers had some pain/discomfort which cost him a few games.

@Wulaw Horn In your discussion about Dezenzo’s lack of ABs this year, you blame Espada for not getting him in the lineup more. I can certainly see the argument for playing him more at 1st - however, I think they have been trying to give Walker every opportunity to get things going which hasn’t happened. Personally I put the blame for this situation on Dana. Once they decided that Cam was going to start in the majors, they should have sent Zach to AAA and kept someone like Gamel who can ride the bench for weeks at a time. There isn’t room on the roster for both of them to get at-bats.

Yordan’s swing decisions look similar in 2024 and 2025 on his savant page. However, he’s not barreling and squaring up as many pitches this year which leads me to believe he’s missing pitches that he should crush.

Markets still falling like whoa
All the negative news should have already been taken into account by the market. It’s already reported deliveries declined 13%. Who really knows?

Please let this be the matchup that wakes up Yordan’s bat. He’s hitting .421 against Bassit with 5 HRs.

I had to look the rule up - Infield fly rule only applies if there is a force play at third.

Always good to face Maldonado with 2 outs and 2 on base.
