Ripped that shit.

[tx 3 putt 78470]

slappy !

[WBT 20884]

110.4 mph for Yordan.  If he can just elevate one of those the surly docs may decide not to amputate after all.

[WBT 20884]

BABIP unkind for both sides so far.  .510 and .650 xBA for Altuve and Bregman.  .830 and .600 for Lowe and Garcia.  Only Yordan broke through with his .890.

[runthebone 8322]

Ready to dfa Maton.

[Guest]

Blair Witch camera work on that last out.  damn.

 

Hunter Brown looks better than average...

[Gut Wagon 8214]

Kid's thrown only a couple balls per inning so far.  Concern troll can stay under the bridge. 

[HtownHorn 15243]

I still can't believe he was #71 on the midseason prospect list. It's ridiculous how the Astros get absolutely no respect for their ability to develop.

Going to make the Verlander decision very interesting in the offseason. It's tough, when you have to sign Tucker and 3 or 4 of the Latin Connection, while also looking at upgrades at 1B and CF.

Boot up the robot ump.

[Guest]

Others have said it, but gotdam, Ted's gonna bat .500 next season with no shift.

[WBT 20884]

18 of 22 strikes so far is awesome.  Definitely not scared.

[tx 3 putt 78470]

windmill warming up for the playoffs !

[WBT 20884]

 

[runthebone 8322]

Running on Machete?  Haha, dumbass.

[Scraps 13745]

Leslie gunned down

[Guest]

geeze that was beautiful

[kevwun 16269]

That had to be a perfect throw and it was.

Remember when I said Brown was absolutely and utterly untradeable?  I feel pretty good about that sentiment right now. 
I’m still willing to listen to the right deal for Bregman if he ups his trade value enough. The utter lack of respect both in the industry and from other teams for Astros prospects is mind numbingly stupid.

I'm glad they don't see the actual value.  If Stros keep harvesting pitchers from their own bounty, then fuck the other putos.

Glad they are still in the fold.

[Wulaw Horn 19560]

I don’t care about what happens the rest of this start or any other start. He needs to be on the post season roster and needs to be the bridge guy when he’s there. Javier needs to be in the rotation not fucking around in the bullpen.  This kid is really good. 

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1549]

what a blessing, Yuli's defense.  Bregs on the hot corner ain't bad either. Machete with the Johnny Bench arm. 

This is a damn good defensive ballclub.

The home plate ump has been really really good tonight.

Clutch fastball there.

[Limp Brisket 549]

Give this kid some run support now.

[tx 3 putt 78470]

Great debut, pull him 

[Gut Wagon 8214]

Impressive debut, to say the least. Not just great stuff but great moxie. 

[CycleTex87 3003]

I’m buying Hunter Brown futures for sure. 

[Chuckie Finster 22978]

Can’t believe they let him face the top of the order again, but I’m glad they did. Attaboy kid.

[UTexasFight 9788]

Bregs eye is so damn good 

[UTexasFight 9788]

Brown take a B(r)ow(n) now 

[runthebone 8322]

I know you're tired, Perez.  Tired of getting all of these bullshit strike calls.

[tx 3 putt 78470]

Ballsy 

[Limp Brisket 549]

Safe

[TexArcher 38816]

Yeah, he's safe.

[tx 3 putt 78470]

He’s safe 

[UTexasFight 9788]

Best hitter.

and worst baserunner in team history 

[kevwun 16269]

I will be pleasantly surprised if they actually overturn it.

[TexArcher 38816]

Even the Rangers' broadcasters are admitting that it's close, so he's 100% safe.

[Scraps 13745]

Altuve.....

[UTexasFight 9788]

He’s out 

[David Dennison 19441]

What's the point of replay?

[Limp Brisket 549]

Lol

[Dennis Taylor 19284]

God damn that's awful 

[TonyTexas 10683]

With Altuve’s baserunning sometimes you get chicken shit, sometimes you get chicken salad. 

[Limp Brisket 549]

Such bullshit

[cabowabo 4645]

Just dumb. 

[kevwun 16269]

The angle from first base made it look like he might have tagged him first.

[tx 3 putt 78470]

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
