for fuck's sake

That was just mean, Pressly.  

[Guadaloopy 10926]

Nice play, Tucker.  

[billfromlaketravis 11363]

Williams, Ted. 

[elfenix 34172]

Astros win!

[Gourmand 7774]

STROS WIN!!

[Guadaloopy 10926]

[WBT 20422]

Never in doubt.  5 in a row and 6 games over .500 for the first time all year.  Also only 1/2 game back.  Just keep winning series.

[Horny Bull 2759]

Always good to beat the AA team. 

[Halohal 498]

Shook off two signs, down the line. 

[Gourmand 7774]

It kinda chaps my ass that Stanek blew some of our run diff on that shitty inning.

[elguapo 4583]

Hahahahaha FTR

[MaclovioBrown 100]

Improve the one run game record

Back to back shaky outings for Stanek.  He walked two last time but got away with it.  He needs to bounce back or we're rapidly running out of relievers that you can have much faith in.

Help is on the way. Cannoli. Plus a couple starters will go to the pen when we get guys back. Plus James. We about to be fine. I like Emanuel too. 

[Wulaw Horn 18981]

Also at the quarter pole we are in pace for 94 wins. And we clearly have better baseball in us. I had us winning 100 I think. We end up in that neighborhood I believe.

This is the problem with the “help is on the way mentality.”

sure it is. But that assumes everyone else stays healthy too, which isn’t going to happen

And posted yesterday but Framber scheduled to throw 3 innings today... if it’s not rained out 

[Gourmand 7774]

I think they'll get it in, it's cloudy and cool right now but nothing they can't play through. The forecast is for scattered showers but the storms seem to have stayed to the south.

Yeah. Looks like a line about to hit RR but after that, smooth sailing

maybe delayed start

It’s more important to be healthy In Sept / Oct 

heal up urquidy

similarly it would be a very pleasant surprise if we could get worthwhile 2021 contributions from Josh James and Austin Pruitt.

With 3 off-days in the next 12, we should be able to work around it. With the caveat that his IL stint is only 10 days. 

[tx 3 putt 76402]

yordan sitting, 'tweaked' leg. he can run straight but side to side isnt ideal

 

available to pinch hit

shane reynolds doesn't have a radio voice

[UTexasFight 9380]

Nothing structural for Urquidy. Muscular issue. Hopes to be throwing this week

Framber: keeps blowing doors of whatever plan they have for him. Click didn’t go in to any details about # of rehab starts. will go 3 innings in RR today. Game start delayed to 2pm

[Gourmand 7774]

Who is in the TV booth right now with Kalas and Blum?

[Gourmand 7774]

Bregman with an rbi single

[Gourmand 7774]

Jose Altuve is now hitting .300 again

I enjoyed him talking to Ford yesterday about wearing one of the camo hats from this weekend to go deer hunting.

Graduation maybe?  I think he missed time for one of his daughter's UT graduation a year or two ago.  Doesn't he have 2 or 3?

[clapclapclap 9000]

You thinking of Blum?  He's got 40 daughters.

[WBT 20422]

Good on Correa for beating it out.  He wanted that RBI.

[UTexasFight 9380]

Framber, where you hiding?

staying dry.

No baseball in Round Rock today.

6 yo will have to wait some more to see his first live baseball since 2019.

 

 

 

[Scraps 13542]

That Gallo stat is still pretty amazing

1 sac fly in his career

Almost seems impossible

[elfenix 34172]

Fuck

[Scraps 13542]

Fucking hanger

[David Dennison 18661]

Our bullpen. Yikes.

That sucked. I got there around 2pm and it was a downpour. Currently sunny skies out in the 78765.
