  1. Can we get some motherfucking insurance?
  2. They are truly awful. So- we can pay an extra 30 basis points and they will promise not to sell your loan for 5 years when we hit it again in December in all likelihood. That's 30 to the fee not the rate- so works out to 1/8 or so in all likelihood on the rate. New-ish program. Almost nobody wants that, you have to well and truly hate servicers to choose that option...but, it's now there.
  3. So- if this ends with: Terry, Charles, CA LB, Flip of a DT from Ark, Flip of a DT from Neb we are pretty good, right? That would leave us looking for a couple running backs (1 year types), Corner, safety, 2 or 3 DT's in the portal right? We should be set at QB, WR, OL, TE and Edge coming out of this season and with this class, right? I think I'd probably also prioritize a transfer PK in the portal. Seems smarter than a high school PK.
  4. Those were basically the same game. And all bullpen guys torched are gone, right?
  5. That the Baltimore game where they scored like 9 or 10 in the 8th and 9th against guys that are no longer in the org? When we had like a 15-2 lead or something?
  6. I just realized Heyward will get a playoff share for the dodgers and the stros and 2 chances to win a ring. Kinda nuts.
  7. Urquidy is gone. Sign one of JV or Kikuchi Next year you have: Framber, Brown, Arrighetti, Blanco, JV or Kikuchi, Garcia (that one should be a 90/10 he's back), Blubaugh (he will be ready and he will be decent), maybe McCullers (25/75). Javier potentially coming back to be in the bullpen down the stretch- but I'm not counting on him. That should be plenty enough.
  8. Move Presley if he’s agreeable. Otherwise I’d offer Abreu 4/40 to buy out his 2 arb years and his 2 FA and trade him if he said no. If you believe Whitley is ready.
  9. I wonder what his market is? I’d offer him 3/48- tell him if he stays healthy he will win 300 and compete for titles in a place he’s comfortable with the rest of his career. I’d he doesn’t like that shake his hand and say thanks.
  10. If he gets to 300 as an Astro and won another title or two I think he’s an Astro in the HOF even though the majority of his work would have been done in Detroit. 2 cy young’s and 3 or 4 WS and the last man to win 300 is a lot of stuff that ties him to the Astros.
  11. Bump for more. Win money. Impress fellow surly posters. Dazzle your friends.
  12. No. But he’s maybe our third best starter. And maybe top 15 or 20 starter in the AL.
  13. So Whitcomb fuck Espada’s mother or something? also- should I pencil Yainer Diaz in as dead? Or is this a scenario where like bases loaded in a tie game in the 9th they might consider PH for him of, say, Gamel was up to bat. I mean- I know guys days off are sacrosanct and all, just curious as it if we plan on rolling over here the way we did with Boston not PH Altuve.
  14. I’m not saying that we won’t be an important game on everyone’s schedule, obviously, but Georgia isn’t going to spend the summer game planning for us when they have Clemson and Alabama before us, and they aren’t going to blow off Kentucky or Tennessee game prep 2 or 3 weeks out while they game plan for us. That’s a big difference. We were everyone’s rivalry/circled game in the conference. We just won’t be now. Just one big game against many.
  15. In June I but down a small bet on Astros, Royals and Orioles to win the division. I think I got +6500. those teams were like a combined 22 games down at that time. I’m now 1 game back in the East from being ahead in all those bets. I also bet 20 to win 6000 on astros World Series and longhorns national title. That bet would currently be something like 20 to win 1500 I think.
  16. He was one dumb mother fucker. I wonder if he was always that dumb or if there was some delayed level of CTE involved.
  17. It’s almost impossible to overstate how much this needs to be the lineup: Altuve, Alvarez, Bregman, Tucker, Diaz, caratini, Pena, heyward or Gambel, Meyers. I feel like, with how things are going now, that’s a lineup you can count on to score 2 or so runs a game.
  18. I don’t think he said sark was a drunk. I think he said sark isn’t a teetotaler like some I think have heard. You don’t have to be plugged in at all to hear this- I’ve heard it from 3 or 4 different people (and always as- he isn’t a teetotaler but it isn’t a problem in his life).
  19. Chas isn’t done with the stros. He has options left. They will send him to the minors and try it again next year.
  20. We talk about the injuries, good pitching and bad hitting and a bit of a re-set for division lead. And it gets grim when I make my prediction for the week.
  21. 4 in the loss column dudes. I predicted 2-5 this week. Hope like hell I’m wrong.
  22. It feels like whitcomb should play every day until he conclusively proves he shouldn’t. He seems hitterish to me right now.
  23. Jokes on you. Text was actually 50 words long but Espada is only barely literate.
  24. Not Whitley. probably Salazar and Martinez. It would be criminally insane with how much you Ph and DH and play at 1B your catchers not to have a new one up when rosters expand.
  25. Gots to be loyalty points. And if anyone donates to longhorn foundation now before maxing out loyalty points allowable with Texas One they should be kicked in the balls.
