Anyone else's ATT Sports just drop the game?  Seems like the feed cut out at midnight

It's Friday night, Heidi is the Late, Late Movie.

2-0 meatball to Bregs and he stands there like Ensberg.

streaming app cut out, had to jump over to volokit stream 

[Victor Lazlo 1742]

Now my ATT alternate has sound but no video. 
This is seriously harshing my mellow. 

[clapclapclap 9000]

No interruption here.  MLB.TV plus vpn, I haz it.

[runthebone 7929]

If your feed is out, let me summarize:  Scrubb just walked a guy on 4 straight pitches.

[Guadaloopy 10903]

Beautiful benders from Scrubb.

[elfenix 34168]

Astros win!

[tx 3 putt 76159]

the losing streak is over !

[runthebone 7929]

And we're back!

Hope Altuve starts hitting soon.

[WBT 20397]

[tx 3 putt 76159]

Hopefully this is just dead arm, and nothing structural. Damn on Yordan and Urquidy.

I don’t think he was going to contribute this year anyway.

do we resign him for 2021 ?

Yes, if he will do a 1 year deal. I think we’ll have to start somewhat of a rebuild after that. I think that’s why Springer hasn’t gotten a deal. They are hoping he’ll have to sign a short deal,, waiting for the market to improve. Same for Yuli except he wouldn’t  be getting a long term deal regardless.

I’m not sure what they’ll do with Correa. He’d bring back a ton of badly needed prospects in a trade but I’m confident we’ll be a contender next year so that might not be an option.

2022 season may look a lot like 2020 in terms of length.

gonna be interesting to see how Click plays this 

 

[tx 3 putt 76159]

altuve, bregman + correa, springer (if we can resign them) >>> that's a young core to keep winning

If a choice has to be made, I’d rather sign Correa to a long term deal than Springer. Also, it’s concerning that we don’t have a single pitcher of consequence signed or even arbitration eligible beyond next year. 

To correct part of my earlier post, Yuli has 2 years of arbitration remaining. Funny to have a 36 year old in that situation.

[tx 3 putt 76159]

starting pitching is the huge concern.

yuli is only behind bagwell as best 1B in this franchise. damn shame he didn't come over when he was 18. he's potential HoF good

[WBT 20397]

Huh, Tucker at cleanup tonight

[tx 3 putt 76159]

Bust it open 

[rvm96 1643]

One of the idiot fox announcers said Tucker was a former #1 overall pick. He wasn't even the Astros highest pick that year.

[TexArcher 37455]

Tucker had a couple of pitches to hit there.

He's not very good at major league baseball.

While relievers are easier to replace, both Osuna and Pressly are UFA in 2022.

Berkman's last 5 years for us he played more 1B than outfield.  Glenn Davis was better too, 7 years with 3 of them >4 WAR.

Professional Pitcher 

[tx 3 putt 76159]

We need some runs 

[WBT 20397]

So with the late start last night we played for four and half hours and with the early start today we're through 4 inning in an hour & five minutes.

[WBT 20397]

Beckham?

[Scraps 13531]

Beckham?
