  2. Bregman can move to SS. But I don't see Bryant coming to Houston.
  3. Maldonado/Castro can handle catcher until Lee comes up.. I'm in agreement about TOP pitchers, you can't have too many.
  4. You have always been a constant on the Astros thread.. I remember when there were like 6 of us who posted during those 100 loss seasons. We had to endure constant ridicule from Ranger fanboys and our only hope was Altuve learing how to not strike out, and the promise of Correa and Springer being called up. I was in Laredo on business when Correa got the call up.. I was stoked, and spent 30 minutes calling restaurants to see if they televised the game. BW3's had it; remember those were the days we had the tv contract issues.. When Springer was called up, it was my first time watching an illegal feed on my computer. It has indeed been a wild ride. I would imagine if someone told us in 2013 we would win a WS and go to 2 others before 2022 we would be pretty damn stoked. Good news is, its not over. far from it.
  5. Take solice in the fact that we have Jim Crane, who has proven he will do whatever it takes to win. 2025 is a long way off and its hard to predict anything other than the fact the roster will be almost completely different.
  6. All we can do is hope he is offered and accepts what he's worth. Its a 2 way street. And when there's a leadership void, that void is filled. Altuve and Bregman can slide right in..
  7. Yes. The owner has indicated as much. He isn't going to overpay, however.. I know that's not what you want to hear, but the Astros will be contenders the next few seasons, barring epic disaster.
  8. Strom was a badass. He'll be tough to replace.
  9. Awesome. Now we can start to rank which World Series loss stings the worst.
  10. If our bats were decent, we're not even watching baseball tonight.
  11. This is actually a lie. Its not my only worry. I have several.
  12. My only worry is about what version of Luis Garcia we are going to get.
  13. I have 2 tickets for sale.. PM if interested.. Section 128, row 35, seats 1 and 2..
  14. I have 2 tickets for sale for World Series Game 6.. Section 128, row 35, seats 1 and 2. 1000$ each, or 2000$ total for both I'll forward via ballpark app.. PM if interested!
  15. Serious question... If tonight's game is rescheduled, to they push all games back a day? Or just make it up on Monday.. and have 5 consecutive days of baseball?
  16. IIRC, Springer started off the 2017 WS cold. Lots of baseball left.
  17. Food can be major expense if you eat out/drink out.. Its the easiest way to cut 4 figures off your monthly nut; stop eating and drinking out and shop at the grocery store.. This guy just took it to the next level... and I think his biggest hassle was likely waiting in line and going through metal detectors every time he needed to eat.
  18. Seat Geek is good
  19. Yeah but they can't do that to our humans, only we can do that to our humans.
  20. The roof should be closed; 70 percent chance of rain Wednesday.. But even if Manfred forces the Astros to do it, and the Astros do not, what is the penalty? If its a fine, go ahead and just pay it... Then, weld the fucker shut this offseason and create the Juicedome.
  21. There's playoff implications
  22. Many in his organization likely set it up.
  23. I would imagine the teachers hate this stupid rule that they have to enforce in the classroom. When I was in HS in 2000, we still had the no facial hair thing going.. AP's monitored the halls with razors and barbasol and sent dudes to the bathroom to shave. Then they were tardy. Then disrupted class when they came in late.
