2020 Astros Season Thread

[Guadaloopy 10,921]

I like getting to the bullpen in the 3rd inning of the first game of a four game set that includes a doubleheader.   

[Scraps 13,542]

Yeah we just don't need him to go like 3 hitless innings now lol

Trade Phil too

You don’t make hard changes based on this shortened 2020 season. No spring training hit mlb hard. Look for FA bullpen help, figure out springer and lock down correa long term if he’ll bite 

[Scraps 13,542]

Layup....Raley

[WBT 20,419]

3rd all-time in RBIs behind Aaron and Ruth isn't bad

Yep... now please retire and stop knocking in runs against the Astros.  

[WBT 20,419]

I almost never call for a bunt but I agree with Blum here

[Scraps 13,542]

Looked like a bow shot

[Jimbaround 973]

Ooowwww

[Scraps 13,542]

Yep

[WBT 20,419]

Better the elbow than the wrist or hand at least

[tx 3 putt 76,353]

That’s a hell of a stinger 

[cabowabo 4,452]

Whatever happened to that cold spray shit they used to use?  Bet some of that would feel good. 

[Scraps 13,542]

Springer gets on base and then has to put on an Iron Man suit

 

 

[perfectchaos007 6,596]

Great bases clearing double by Showrea!

[WBT 20,419]

Showrrea!!  Huge 2-out pickmeup

[Guadaloopy 10,921]

Man that was huge.  Show-rea.  

[Scraps 13,542]

finally a clutch hit...those seem few and far between this year 

[WBT 20,419]

Ted!!

Also good to see Correa busting his ass to score in case Tucker got thrown out at 2nd.

[UTexasFight 9,379]

Tucker 108 on the HR

109 in the double

 

still think he would benefit from trying to go the other way sometimes, but when he’s barreling the ball like he has been most of this year, fuck it 

[UTexasFight 9,379]

Man Framber still has some nasty shit at 108 pitches 

[Guadaloopy 10,921]

Obligatory comment about Dusty, young pitchers, and meat grinders.  

[UTexasFight 9,379]

Omg

that sequence to Trout

 

holy shit

 

[Scraps 13,542]

Trout did say before that Framber has some of the nastiest stuff he has ever seen.  

It showed against him tonight 

[UTexasFight 9,379]

agreed

but don’t care

so worth it to see what he just did to ohtani and trout 

[WBT 20,419]

Good job Framber.  Big to save the pen too with the DH and day game coming up the next two days.

[henrygandorf 29,174]

i did not think framber had this in him.

 

[huge 3,788]

Also Framber is not that young.

[WBT 20,419]

professional hitter

[perfectchaos007 6,596]

If we did superlatives Framber should get this season's "most improved" award on the team.

Trust him more than LMJ right now.  

[UTexasFight 9,379]

X-rays negative on springer’s elbow 

[henrygandorf 29,174]

I didn’t think straw had that in him...

did not expect to see straw blast one out of the reach of trout

We’ll somehow manage to turn both in to 9 inning games... and fuck them both up

[WBT 20,419]

someone get the oxygen mask for machete

a combination of injuries and weird scheduling forced both maldonado and straw into my fantasy lineup today for the first, and last time.

3-3 with 3 runs and 2 rbi. 2b, 2bb.

[Scraps 13,542]

X-rays negative on springer’s elbow 

Cool he will only be out 17 days now instead of the rest of the season

[Scraps 13,542]

Lol

[Scraps 13,542]

Lmao Dusty regarding 3rd game starter...."we are leaning towards DeJong....i think thats how you say his name"

[wood 11,132]

OK, wtf? Am I the only one whose DVR can never seem to record an Astros game this season ... or is there some kinda ban that I missed hearing about? Every time a game is scheduled, right at game time it switches to cornhole or poker or some other shit.

Found it

 

[UTexasFight 9,379]

Here is the other one

I love that he doesn’t get the call on the 2-2 curve, machete dials the same exact pitch, and Framber nails it

What trades do we make before next Monday?  SP? BP? OF? Sign Pence?

Trade Biagini and Sneed for a truckload of sandbags.

[jkates 313]

God bless Framber Valdez.

Keep it going, Ted.

[Tylerocks 2,551]

Man, that is some wicked stuff.

[Scraps 13,542]

Are we going to go play our home games at the Trop this weekend again? 

[TonyTexas 10,482]

 

[Scraps 13,542]

Tomorrows game postponed.

Should just play 6 inning tripleheader today like a boss
