  1. What a magical season this was.. It won't be forgotten as I'll be telling stories for decades to come about no hitters, immaculate innings, Yor-bombs, The Catch, walkoffs, and most importantly REDEMPTION. See, 2017 was special because we finally won a WS. It was the first one for the Astros and any long time fan spent most of their life with a championship as something that other teams get to play for. Not us. Then that ended in LA. Next came the bullshit scandal following a horrific letdown in 2019. Fans and media ganged up and ran their mouths, ran their articles, and books.. Astros fans knew the truth and wanted redemption. Fell short in 2021 to a hot Braves team, then accomplished something epic in 2022. This championship was so damn gratifying because of the shit we went through post scandal. Johnny Cash "God's gonna cut you down" is perfect for this team this season. "You can run on for a long time" - all the fucks that wouldn't stop running their mouths about cheating "god" is the heart, talent, skill, and dedication of the players and fans... sooner or later we were going to cut em down. Not sorry for the long post. Go Stros
  2. We'll have to address that this offseason.. can't be giving up all those hit like that LOL
  3. Offense was better in 2017.. arms better in 2022.. tough call
  4. It will be open so God can see and can cut em down
  5. DH cannot be Vasquez. If Maldy gets hurt you cannot bring Vasquez out of DH to catch. Rules. Hensley is a no-brainer I have no idea wtf the reason is for him not playing.
  6. Kate should tell him she's leaving him for Javier if he doesn't close the deal
  7. Hensley is the obvious choice for DH.. he got a hit and got deep into counts last night.
  8. Not sure whose responsible for LMJ's tipping. But how the hell can Philly be ready for it like that and someone in our organization not catch it?
  9. We need a bat this off-season. Too many sticks gone cold.
  10. Crystal ball. Nobody questioned that decision before tonight. LMJ is a vet and has WS experience.. he just shit the bed unfortunately.
  11. We shelled Nola and Wheeler. It would be awesome if they pitched this way.
  12. There's a major system that should push through by game time. Problem is, there's another even larger one behind that. I would imagine that what the meetings are about
  13. Cause he blew you off to do something else LOL
  14. Option 1. Hensley Option 2. Dubon in CF with Yordan at DH. Option 2 gives us better defense. If they're not going to hit who gives AF.
  15. Same. You'll never get these moments back with your kids.. One day they won't want to trick or treat anymore so try to enjoy it..
  16. You're welcome. I was standing in the line that wrapped around the entire team store and was telling people we should be able to swing JV and Judge after this
  17. https://twitter.com/DTGoteraKHOU/status/1586573871246884869?s=20&t=9_yL3v3ZSVKRedBZn95FHQ Framber does it to mind fuck the hitters... and Helo apparently
  18. Anything that comes off with one wipe on a shirt won't help the spin of a ball.
  19. That AB by Stott was concerning.. I was happy thinking their 5-9 were almost free outs. That being said, we have to get through the top of their order.. that's the heart of the team and the only strength they have over us. We are better in every other way.
  20. This. They have to trot out some suspect pitching for those games.
  21. I'm about to break the news to the boy that he can't go to school today... we have a game to attend tonight in Houston..
  22. Both teams won in 4 and 5 games.. I don't know when they traditionally solidify the WS schedule but usually this doesn't happen..
  23. The Astros have never won game 1 of any World Series.. that needs to change Friday..
