2021 Houston Astros Thread

that game was 5 innings of Astros grind it out, wear you down, win 4-2...

 

and then 4 innings of "we're all getting Deshaun Watson massages in 30 minutes and can't wait."  Holy furk...just going through the motions.

 

Hard to believe all of that shit was in the same game.

Alvarez has eight strikeouts and three hits during his last 21 at-bats. He struck out on four pitches with two on and no out in the fifth inning of Houston’s 8-4 loss on Saturday, a game in which he finished 0-for-4. 

“He’s in a funk,” Baker said on Sunday. “He’s a little bit lost right now. He’s late on fastballs and early on breaking balls, that’s in a funk. These last five games, he’s like 3-for-21 with more punchouts than we’re used to. This is a work day, we’ve got to get him right."

Actually enjoying Ranger broadcasters discussing modern players' reactions to big plays like Adolis Garcia's comment to Machete while still at the plate yesterday.

I'm cool with a little emotion, as long as you're not being a dick about it.  Word is that Adolis and Machete know each other from years back and it was a good natured jab.

I'm good with a little bat flip or whatever.  No need for running your mouth or starting shit though.  No stare downs.

 

Garcia is a player I can enjoy watching when the Rangers are on.  I like the energy he brings to the game.
