2022 Houston Astros Thread

[Brisketexan 104,557]

I mean this isn't even that fun. I kinda feel bad for the yankees and their fans. So overmatched.



Naaaaaaaaaaa lmao fuck these cockgobblers and their fans

Yeah….I was about to suggest “counterpoint: fuck ‘em.”

[Pimphand 5,594]

Im pretty sure Yankee tears are the only finer vintage than Sooner tears.

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19,093]

So, I have my ticket for tomorrow (127B Row 11).

Both are excellent vintages, but very different nose and finish.

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1,549]

Judge, Stanton, Rizzo and Cole. They 4 very good/great players, the rest of their roster is no-name mediocre dudes.  Seattle is so much better. 

[Rockethorn1978 6,061]

Thankful for the Astros to make me happy these days.

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1,549]

if the shutout finalizes, Astros pitching has only given up 2 earned runs in the last 45 innings.

[tx 3 putt 76,314]

brother brown has the 8th !

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19,093]

That was a ball?!?

need to hold them at 0, for the run differential crown !

[Scraps 13,540]

So many empty seats in the aerial lmao

[tx 3 putt 76,314]

come on brown 

[Pimphand 5,594]

Calm down and throw strikes

[runthebone 7,932]

Jesus, Brown

[runthebone 7,932]

Get him the fuck out of there.

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19,093]

Jesus.  Why pull Stanek and put this kid in?  He is struggling.

[cabowabo 4,451]

Way to go Brown.

[tx 3 putt 76,314]

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

[Smax 3,800]

Jesus.  Why pull Stanek and put this kid in?  He is struggling.

Good fucking question

[cabowabo 4,451]

Pull him Dusty!

[tx 3 putt 76,314]

come on brown, get out of this 

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1,549]

Dusty pulled Javier way too early at 84 pitches.  I like Brown but he's cold tonight, get him out after they score here.

he hasn't pitched in awhile. no need to let him cool off and have to get back out there

brown has this 

[cabowabo 4,451]

Pull him now!

[tx 3 putt 76,314]

one more

[runthebone 7,932]

Good shift.  Come on, Montero.

[Guest]

Dusty is pulling all the right levers at the right time.

It ain't for the faint of heart.

Go full gangsta.

It was 1,000% the right call with how little he has been used lately

[runthebone 7,932]

He desperately wanted to swing.  Good job

[TonyTexas 10,481]

Oh the agony

[tx 3 putt 76,314]

[cabowabo 4,451]

Whew….

not really, but Judge wilts again so we're ok.

he's pressing 

[TexArcher 37,508]

There you go, Yankees, you expensive frauds.

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19,093]

Thank God!  Seriously, ughh.  No score.  Inning over.  

Not going to lie, would like a few more runs on the board.  After this, I need to walk Harvey and grab dinner.  I am a bottle of wine in.  Trying to not open another one before grabbing dinner.

You would really rather a rusty (but dominant Javier) a third time through the lineup instead of the Astros dominant bullpen fully rested?

c'mon.  Open one up for this ninth inning.

[TonyTexas 10,481]

The Yankees have 1 hit. Hilarious

What is the bottle!? I hope it’s a good red.

yes, he could do another 15 pitches no problem.  I have deep faith in the big starting 4 pitchers when they are rolling. I'd like to see them go 8 or 9 sometime too, not a problem with me at all. 

[tx 3 putt 76,314]

abrue up

This is a Txakoli.  Just the first bottle of the evening.  Started with a white.

[runthebone 7,932]

Pressly or not?  Prefer not.  Let's get some more runs.

Have to get something done tomorrow.  Since I have the game tomorrow afternoon (provided the weather holds), so going to hold off.  

[cabowabo 4,451]

Lol. German needs to stick with beating up his girlfriend. 

[runthebone 7,932]

Let's see if Altuve can really get it going.  Actually, he should let this guy walk him.

[Guest]

How can they lay off those pitches?

No.  We may have up to 4 more games in a row.  Doubtful, but have to be ready for that just in case.  We don't need Press tonight.
