  1. Another factor working against us is the time off/fatigue from playing into November 2 years in a row. And this year you add in the WBC which players have to report even earlier. I'm on the 101 train if there are no serious injuries like Yordan or Breggy, but I think 96 is more realistic as there are several on out roster with a history of missing significant time throughout the season.
  2. Dumb question immunity.. When the media yammers on about how shitty of a farm system the Astros have does that take into account our Dominican league and international players?
  3. I'm in the championship again; won last year. I'm struggling with the Flex, non PPR.. Rhamondre Stevenson Jerrick McKinnon Jalen Waddle Help me be the first in league history to go back to back.
  4. My buddy handed me a beer in a brand new one of these that just got delivered. Tasted like turpentine.
  5. My son got a pack of Astros baseball cards. Thanks for the heads up now I need to screen them like Halloween candy..
  6. The Godfather (all 3) Caddy Shack I did scratch Roadhouse off the list last week.
  7. We're getting to the point that what we already have is better than what's left. The organization has confidence in Chas, Meyers, and Leon in the OF and Lee/Diaz at C. They got this right with Pena last season..
  8. If Lee turns out to be worse than Maldy then you know Dusty will give him more starts.
  9. I'm predicting there was buyer's remorse on part of the Giants, they found a way to pull out of the deal, and Boras picked up the phone and called the Mets and asked them if their offer was still good.
  10. I was thinking of doing 500 miles, just jogging or running. This is a cool concept at well.
  11. Woody's is a great stop for gas and everything you may need as a half way point between Dallas and Houston. Kolaches are solid and you can always get a traditional lunch meat sandwich and chips. Jerky good too, plus clean bathrooms. The BBQ is nothing fantastic but it'll work if.your hungry. As an added bonus, it's not absurd crowded like Bucees, official home of the 40 dollar bathroom break. But if you expect Franklin BBQ every time you make a pitstop then keep driving I guess.
  12. I hope they give Chas the starting spot and don't screw around with the committee thing. But who am I kidding we all know what Dusty is going to do LOL. Yordan, Tucker, Chas, Brantley, Meyers, Dubon, and Hensley.. Throw in Pedro Leon and I think we are set on OF.
  13. The Finebaum penis-head may end up in the MS Paint HOF when its all said and done
  14. Signing free agents and continuing to be be 10 under .500 in perpetuum.
  15. The Rangers have improved but not enough to be relevant for the playoffs.
  16. Catcher- Lee or Diaz OFs - Tucker, Chas, Yordan, Meyers, Dubon, Hensley
  17. True, but for the right package lets do it. 2022 Starting pitchers and BP are off the table if I'm GM.
  18. I would not trade Urquidy or LFG. I think they provide more value than the disparity of talent between Chas and Varsho. They are reliable regular season arms that have a ton of playoff experience and success. Plus, the 6 man rotation is gone..and it's a legit 6 man rotation with proven starters and not some bs with 1 or 2 AAAA guys. IMO wanting to trade Urquidy/LFG for somebody like Varso is like my 7 year old wanting the cheap plastic dump truck from wal mart when he has several good Tonka's already in his closet. I'm all for bringing in Varsho, but just for the right price and package and not guys responsible for hauling in the hardware.
  19. I'm going to continue to be optimistic even though the Vasquez miss is frustrating. Maybe there's confidence in our farm catchers.
  20. The price tag may have been way too high for Vasquez. And the latter 2 are still FAs.
  21. that is a horrible, awful proposal for Varsho. Out of all the CF's in baseball, the list is very damn limited to whom I would trade Javier for.
  22. I may pull the trigger on this, but you can guarantee I won't be watching games 1 and 3 again.
  23. Poor defensive catchers will be thrown a lifeline in 2024 with the introduction of robot umps. He may be a guy who catches 1/5th of the time in that scenario..
