  1. For Sure. I have like 5 deals floating right now. 2 sales and 3 refinances. I need the refinances to get about 1/4 of a point better to get back to where they were before customers let them expire and they are fine to go again. Sales will have to close but they have a stop on the high end to trigger a lock. The market won't get better until I give up and lock those deals- then it will be in like 5 minutes time. Down to +9 right now. I have no idea why. It's going to suck when this day finishes in the red after starting out +61!
  2. Went from mbs up 60 points at 8:30 this morning to up 13 points right now. Reprice for the worse. Was trying to get some momentum, technical charts portend better times ahead, but I'm selling on the idea of it right now.
  3. Forrest Whitley will take the baton all the way to the finish line.
  4. We need to refer to him as Yainer Maldonado until he proves better than that.
  5. Cam Smith with an AB that was 10 times better than Altuve and Yordan. I’m sick of the Yordan that sucks shit through a straw.
  6. I mean, he's certainly not helping in any way. He's been every bit as shitty as anyone would have reasonably expected him to be. The problem is Yordan, Yainer and Walker weren't expected to be shitty and they are. Difference is- those 3 will (should) stop being shitty, whereas Dubon probably wont. But yeah- it's not his fault skipper dumb dumb gives him too many AB's.
  7. Fair point. You could also, I’m pretty sure, play Dezenzo at 2B or DH on days Altuve played 2B and Yordan played in LF if you wanted to. He has enough positional flexibility (4 corners plus could probably handle occasionally 2B, plus DH) that you certainly didn’t need to go 14 days between starts which is where we were at.
  8. False. I predicted Hunter brown cy young. it is known that Whitley will have to settle for ROY this year before becoming cy young next year and mvp in 27.
  9. Episode 100 of breathing orange fire! favor request if you’ve never listened- check this one out- favor request if you do listen- share it with a friend that loves the Astros. thanks!
  10. That was a damn nice first inning of the year for Whitley. His stuff is good. It’s why I have stupidly kept the faith.
  11. Tickets for tonight’s game (free as always). let me know if you want them.
  12. Glad we could start this inning off with a walk.
  13. No- that’s not what I’m saying. I’m saying I don’t think he’s that bad a baseball player as what his results currently show.
  14. About time Christian Walker. I don’t think he’s that bad.
  15. Eh- give him another year. Hes young for the level, he walks a ton, he’s got high athletic upside, plays a premium up the middle defensive position and he’s got plenty of thump for extra base power, all while hitting the ball hard. I don’t particularly believe in his hit tool and I’d bet against him being a stud/star, but it’s way too early to say that definitively. he struggled some in AA last year, I believe, before lighting the league on fire toward the end of like 850 type ops in a very tough league for hitters in the Texas league. he’s probably my favorite everyday prospect that’s not a teenager, but that’s damning with faint praise in this system. I love like 5 or 6 pitching prospects in the system and wouldn’t be surprised if we graduated a cy young type, a fringe all star type, and a half dozen MOR/BOR from our system right now.
  16. Life is good and we are about to start racking up win after win after win.
  17. I mean, Altuve isn’t good (defensively) at 2B. Like, he was probably the worst 2B in all of baseball last year (defensively).
  18. Let’s just say I don’t expect the season to end that way.
  19. Fucking fatass maldy with a terrible passed ball. So glad he’s not our problem anymore. Yordan without a single base knock in the 1st inning is fun.
  20. Connor drafted and Majors not is the first I've ever seen that 2fer.
  21. Arrighetti on the bump- feeling good. Oh. Well. Anyway.
  22. He wasn’t playing tackle here or even first tackle off the bench with Banks, Jones and Williams. I’d say you got the guy that probably had the best post Texas career in the portal era.
  23. 1/2 the 6th round picks make a roster in year 1, 20% make it to year 3. That’s why 6th round makes sense. If he’s not in jail he’s on the team. He’s got no record and he’s got money- I’d think he’d be able to work something out but I haven’t gotten past the headlines so no real idea.
  24. Can smith had a good day Sunday so he hits 7th Monday. Takes the collar Monday so he hits 8th today. Smart stuff from that big dummy.
