2022 Houston Astros Thread

[Shaggy3.0 1695]

Told ya'll.  We ain't dead yet.  ASTROS REFUSE TO DIE.

Sticking with my prediction: ASTROS IN 6.  We party in HTOWN and errrbody gettin' laid.

All you pussies whining yesterday need to recognize who the fuck you were shitting on.

The Houston Astros aren't rolling over down 2-1.

You were one of the ones that kept the faith. So did @TexArcher and others. Proud to say that I did too . We’re going to make the rest of the country mad as hell by winning it all.

Holy shit. Just unreal from 24hrs ago

 

There is no team more battle-tested than the Houston Astros and before tonight's game they should have been up 2-1 after outplaying Philly in the first two games and it took Philly teeing off on LMJ's tipping hole to beat the shit out of us last night. 

We're four-time ALCS champs for a good reason. Some of yall forget that too easily.

I was pretty down this morning and accepted defeat, but I'm a pessimist and the 2019 Series broke my brain. We're back baby.

Probably an unpopular opinion on this thread but I think ARod is fucking great as a studio guy. 

Rodriquez is a solid analyst. Always has been. Just such a douche in so many other respects.

[tx 3 putt 76159]

welp, enough of that shit. game 5 is the most important game of this series. we need JV to throw a regular season JV game. you have garcia and urquidy ready to go if we need a quick hook. bats need to stay hot.

no doubt about it, tomorrow is the most important game of the season

Why?  Only Maldonado can call a good game. All our teams pitching success is due to Maldy.

Same lineup tomorrow except Hensley for Diaz.

[Storm the Field 5270]

Series reset once again. Best of 3 now.

Let's have JV finally get over the hump tomorrow, let's fucking party Saturday night and be worthless turds on Sunday.

There is not the slightest chance Urquidy is going tomorrow dude. He threw 3 yesterday, he went a month without pitching in the playoffs. Like, not conceivably possible he’s pitching tomorrow.

Tomorrow has the feel of 2017 game 5.

Prove me wrong, JV

[Rimbo 25752]

Just this once, in his amazing career, I want to see JV win a World Series game.

[utxmike05 1825]

Obligatory

correct. we have the arms, need the runs 

[StruggleBus 3922]

Let JV go twice through the order tomorrow and then send it to the bullpen.

She's in the Treasures farm system.  Might get a call-up in 2023 if there are some injuries.

Maldy can't hit for shit. Vazquez has that gingervitis.

Dusty inexplicably replaced Hensley with Mancini last night so I'm not holding my breath.

If he is thinking that we need more outfield defense, I hope he goes with Dubon. Anything but Diaz/ Mancini

If Dusty runs Dubon out there tomorrow, this thread will spontaneously combust.   

[Hornsbay22 461]

Finally, home.  completely hammered. same underwear and pants and shirt and waitress and table and beers and food ready for tomorrow. 

 

FUCKING LOVE JAVIER

[Rimbo 25752]

I mean, the Phillies weren't entirely without a hit, since they hit Yordan...

[Gourmand 7774]

Win tomorrow and then close it out with the Framchise on Saturday
