I say this with all sincerity, I believe if you put a major league caliber defense behind me I could close out the final 3 outs of a game, before I gabe up 10 runs, throwing lollipops over the plate. Maybe not every time but more often than not.

August 20, 2017 Jose Altuve leads the league in average and hits 
 

August 20, 2020 Cory Matthews’ BA is only 180 points worse than Altuve’s

Fucking day games during covid are like the worst man

In non covid times I enjoyed them because I will take vacation from work and go down to MMP for the home games and day drink while my coworkers slave away at the office like goobers.  

Even though today is an away game it sucks having 2 in the same week.  

[tx 3 putt 76315]

Astros and Rockets, both with day games suck

yeah that is even dumber about today.  At least if the Rockets were at night like Tuesday it wouldn't be as bad.

Correa is moved up to third in the lineup today with Yuli at DH and Taylor Jones at first base. Toro takes Bregman's spot at third.

Cionel redemption tour starts today.  Also, why not send down Biagini and Sneed and bring up Conine and Dubin?  Let the kids play.

[tx 3 putt 76315]

Springer and Altuve back to back in the line up is brutal

for us, it’s good for the Rockies

Jones has to get that ball 

[WBT 20415]

[tx 3 putt 76315]

[elfenix 34171]

3 triples in 2 games has to be some sort of record. At least for the Astros. Did the announcers say?

Craig Reynolds had 3 in a game

Also, Jose Cruz and last night's cutout hero Steve Finley are tied for the career record with 8 bases loaded triples.

[WBT 20415]

Keep talking shit about Springer and Altuve!

Damn, and Marquez had been having a really good year.

[Gourmand 7774]

Damn, couple of line outs that looked good off the bat

[TonyTexas 10481]

Javier doesn’t have his usual pinpoint control today. Not terrible but nowhere near his previous outings

[Halohal 498]

TY Javier...

[Halohal 498]

Big out... Time for offense

Yes Tuve.

Altuve is creeping up on the Mendoza line!

[HtownHorn 14469]

At this point we could trade Tucker for the entire Rockies organization, and they would still win the trade.

[elfenix 34171]

can we just play in colorado for the rest of the year? 

[elfenix 34171]

mess with the toro you get the horns!

[Gourmand 7774]
