Am I the only one that can't stand the sight of Altuve, Bregman or Tucker?  Something about each one of them just pisses me off.

The Jomboy crew have begrudgingly praised the Astros for years. If you can put aside your hatred from their trash can and buzzer analysis, their Talkin Baseball podcast is really good. They are pretty impartial on it, saving their Yankee love for the Talkin Yanks podcast.

it's their frustration leaking out during their astros takes that amplifies the enjoyment of it for me.

Julks and Diaz are both candidates for the "Where the fuck do the Astros keep getting these players" award.

We got Diaz for Straw b/c we were willing to take Maton off their hands.  They said- for getting rid of this fuck we will go ahead and give you an even better prospect- since he's a net negative. That's the way @LCHorntold me the story anyway.

Glad to be back for another season! Haven’t been on the board much this off season. My mom was diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer right after the World Series and passed away a couple weeks ago. My aunt, her sister, fell and hit her head a couple days after she passed and has been in the hospital in Houston with bleeding in her skull. My uncle died few years ago and they could not have children so I’m taking care of her too so to say that the Astros will be an almost daily welcome distraction is an understatement. I’m ready for the games, the cheers, the bitching and everything else you surly SOBs bring to this board. Let’s go! #ReadytoReign

So happy for Julks, hometown kid playing for the Astros. I can only imagine him going to games as a kid watching late career Biggio and Bagwell and saying I will be out there one day. This is why we all love this sport so much. The dreams of youth and the relationships built between a father and son.

Sorry to hear all this. Hang in there and enjoy the Stros in your downtime. 

Since we are sharing with our Astros family, I’ll share that this will be the first season of my life without my dad. He passed away on New Year’s Eve. I got to take him to a WS game last year, and we celebrated a lot together. Let’s win another one so I can pour one out for him in November.
