Netting at MMP is getting extended

I'm just going to say it. This broadcast team sucks

I've never understood people who bitch about how long the baseball season is. I fucking hate off days, but it gives me time to reflect and not think about this season game by game. This team is historically special. The Death Star is fully operational tomorrow when Greinke takes the bump. With a healthy squad, this could be a special season. Let's fucking go HTOWN

/r/mlbstreams Get on board bud.

Houston is going go to FUCK PEOPLE UP.

Trunks keep poppin' Tops keep droppin' down in Houston

It's Devo?!

So. This fucking Sanchez guy huh.

It's fun kicking the shit out of people

Good call. Didn't get to watch last night's game.

Didn't Maldo homer in his first game with us last year too?

Get the easy out out of the way early.

This thread would be a dumpster fire tonight had Houston not aquired Greinke. Even after an L, we know good times are ahead.

This guy also came back with the Fisher Trade: Cal Stevenson Position: Outfielder Bats: Left • Throws: Left 5-10, 175lb (178cm, 79kg) Team: Toronto Blue Jays (minors) Born: September 12, 1996 (Age: 22-322d) in Fremont, CA us Draft: Drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 36th round of the 2016 MLB June Amateur Draft from Chabot College (Hayward, CA) and the Toronto Blue Jays in the 10th round of the 2018 MLB June Amateur Draft from University of Arizona (Tucson, AZ).

From Reddit: Houston Astros traded 1B Tyler White to Los Angeles Dodgers for RHP Andre Scrubb. Houston Astros traded CF Tony Kemp to Chicago Cubs for C Martin Maldonado. Houston Astros traded OF Derek Fisher to Toronto Blue Jays for RHP Aaron Sanchez and RHP Joe Biagini (Other pieces may be involved) Houston Astros traded 1B/OF Seth Beer, RHP J.B. Bukauskas, RHP Corbin Martin and IF Josh Rojas to Arizona Diamondbacks for Zack Greinke and cash considerations ($24 million). (Other pieces maybe involved, though unlikely). Does not include whatever we got for Stassi from LAA. EDIT: Also saw online it may have been Brady Rogers, not Josh Rojas.

Gotta love the combo of Cole-Grienke-Marisnick for best hair in the league as well

There's no way Luhnow hasn't already talked with Hinch and the boys about this.

Gotta think if no one makes a trade and everyone calls the Mets' bluff, 'Stros have a good a shot as anyone with their current roster.

I'm not going to pile on here, and as much as I wish we still had Hader, I can't forget that Fiers carried the damn rotation in June and July of 2017, securing Houston home field advantage during the ALCS. (Gomez can still go fuck himself though.)

Why would they trade him in their division? If you got back and listen to the Astros podcast with Luhnnow last Sunday he talks about how you won't be seeing Astros scouts on players because they already have a book on everyone. I'm not advocating trading Tucker or Whitley, but if the asking price is JB +, I'm not going to bitch.
