  1. He takes a really professional AB
  2. That’s because he sucks and will never hit again. Am I doing this right?
  3. Catching the ball in the Of is more important than anything else. We shall see.
  4. None of that matters when we score 1. Also going into yesterday he was 1 out above average in very limited time.
  5. Agreed. That’s a really good number on the extension though as people are pretty equally split between no way he would take that and no way crane would do that.
  6. Congrats on not making the list pal.
  7. Just a stunningly amazing hire from aggy. It’s possible it could work out but landing on and hiring that dude is just… wow.
  8. Thanks brother, I appreciate it. Responded back. Give me a ring.
  9. Which is why I’m not sure he wouldn’t sign an extension. If I was his agent I’d tell him to give it serious consideration. Any pitcher getting offered a pay day 3.9 years early should seriously consider it. Especially if his career to date earnings are less than 3M. Also- the only thing worse than a Sunday off, or 4th of July or Labor Day off, is a random Friday. These things make me surly.
  10. You can’t take it with you. Maybe he doesn’t particularly like his kids. Figures might as well blow it on something that amuses himself rather than his grandkids blow it on something dumb like hookers, blow or trying to bring peace to the world or some such idiocy. if I had the cash I’d either be sarks biggest booster or take over Sam Houston and crowd source it to Surly to run. Both seem imminently amusing.
  11. Because it would be awesome.
  12. I mean- he should seriously consider it. Hes still 3.9 years from free agency. He’s not super two. If he got offered 6/100 or something like that he should jump on it. He didn’t make dick for a signing bonus and after this year he will have made about 2.5M total as a big leaguer. 6/100 would be the equivalent of a 3 year 65M or so extension- as it’s likely his arbitration awards will be something like 5M in year 1, 10M in year 2 and 15M in year 3.
  13. I like to think of myself as rational. If Ryan goes Steve Nebraska on us I'm flipping shit over and burning things down...
  14. Stock Market is down less than 3%, so that 15% is super sensitive to something tariff related or there is something else going on.
  15. MBs up 33 points. Moved back to 5.5 coupon. Maybe it’s happening?
  16. Altuve looks like he’s not washed. I love Smith’s approach at the plate. Paredes has very professional at bats. taking anything offensively from 6 games of play is abject lunacy.
  17. Anytime. But you have to have bought the bed first.
  18. One of the things we talked about on the Pod the other day is how I get excited to see a new guy's stuff and whether or not he misses bats. Wesneski missed a ton of bats yesterday from what I saw. Guys swinging under fastballs. Missing breaking stuff. He threw his first curve ball as a major league pitcher yesterday. He got a K on a swinging strike on a changeup- he did that 1 time all of last year. I think the Astros have found another guy to mad scientist on with his sequencing and offerings. I had hopes for him coming in being a really quality BOR option that pitched like a MOR option and 1 start in that isn't disappointing.
  19. I said I’d offer 10/100 today. That’s pretty damn close to 8/60 when you consider the first 6 years are club control and probably only going to pay the player 35M. So, that’s 2 for 25 on FA years for him. My deal would be about 4/64 for cams FA. I’d obviously do either.
  20. Yordan, Altuve, Paredes, Diaz and Walker will all hit for sure. I think Cam will hit. This is so not a concern right now.
  21. And this is the reason to not freak out about the offense. Montero needs to go but other than that I’m not worried about the pitching. Bullpen has been mostly gruntling outside of Hader not missing bats.
  22. I’m doing 11M this month. I have a 3rd party ops manager- is that what you mean? Or another LO? I think I did 58M last year. 65M if you count my construction loans and out of state shit. We shall see. Also I said I wanted to be you when I grow up.
  23. If the tariffs are severe tomorrow should continue to fall. If they are a nothing burger or nobody believes him as far as long term my guess is sell off in bond market.
