This postseason has become more sentimental for me and my wife's family.  My father in law is the biggest Astros fan I know.  He watches every game without fail, even DVRing them if he can't watch liv

Abreu blows. I don’t care how hard you throw if you can’t hit the broad side of a barn. 

Abreu is NOT a multiple inning pitcher. Dusty for some stupid reason thinks he is. Most of the runs he has given up have come in his 2nd inning.

Fuck this losing streak. We are 1-0 when I’ve gone this year, the home opener with Garcia on the bump. Back in the house, look for the trucker hat in 118. We are gonna baby rock out of this mini slump today. 

I accept Venmo, PayPal or Zelle for those of you interested in funding my attendance to the rest of the games I’m not scheduled for. 

What a win. Go get some, kid!

Iconoclast, aka Macklemore, will soon divert his attention and ire to Caserio with the NFL draft happening this week. Can’t wait. 


hopefully Tytus Howard has a god fearing brother or cousin they can draft in the first round. Carries a bible around, 24/7

[mention=537]Jshep34[/mention] At what age do you start to consider serious travel team play. It seems like he’ll be good enough to go that route. 
He is on a select team here locally. He was selected in top 50 kids at 9u for a national showcase thatll be played in July at Fort Meyers (twins spring training) . I honestly don't know what age, but I dont want to burn him out either.

Is he playing any other sports?  Have him play sports for every season (soccer, basketball, maybe football) and I doubt it's possible to burn that kind of kid out.  Golf or Tennis too. I know people act like you shouldn't play golf and baseball at the same time b/c it will mess up your swing but that's nonsense.  Becoming good at golf is a real focus on the mental game that can translate to results in baseball.  Seriously, I've never met a kid that burned out on a sport that played a bunch of different ones with his friends. It builds the love for all of them, doesn't detract imo.  I've played with guys growing up that played NFL (1), MLB (2) and PGA Tour (2 or add in a 3rd depending upon how much you want to stretch played with).  They all played other sports all throughout and that's just where they got off and had fun, competing athletically.
