Go back a few more days and he’s actually better than Springer over the same stretch.

not that that means anything. Just interesting. And sucks for George

No everyone kick Dubon in the nuts instead of giving him a high five.

[WBT 20972]

From the outside you can't understand it, from the inside you can't explain it.

never seen a no hitter in person before.  epic.  then went down to high five @Scraps and @Ldogg53 which was almost as good.

Scraps,  Slacks, whatever it takes. 

[runthebone 8376]

What would our record be in the AL Central? 

[elfenix 34749]

You're still hh to me

[wildcat09 29579]

Looking at baseball reference today, Julks had 307 plate appearances coming into today while Chas had 266.

Dusty should be arrested for this.

Could ever have been a more motley crew of pitchers to throw a NH than Sanchez, Harris, Biagini, and Devenski. Holy shit.

This is the answer because 1 is too many. He's a Top 5 CF now in baseball. It's ridiculous that the only person that doesn't believe it is his manager.

[kevwun 16438]

Dusty also give multiple guys off days at the same time while doing shit like putting Julks at DH. It's not the off days, but the absolute shit lineups he likes to run out from time to time for no reason.

[tx 3 putt 78677]

You manage for a 162 game season. No one has played more games since 2017 than us. No one coaches all 162 like it’s game 7, well except the surly thread 

why is Julks, grae and Mayers on the roster ? Because crane and brown decided we can repeat with them on the roster 

Tied for first with two months to go. Let’s fucking go !

Was at the no hitter in the summer of ‘67 w/Don Wilson on the mound (yes, I’m old).    It was the first no hitter in the Astrodome.  And fuck Mike Fiers.

[elfenix 34749]

[Scraps 13799]

Harrison was at Cy Youngs no hitters

you said what we are all thinking

[tx 3 putt 78677]

We’ve given away at least 4 games. Defense needs to tighten up. I’m confident that the BP we’ll find its groove when the playoffs start 

bregman and Abreu need to get a hot streak going

Soooo, when the great majority of my buddies went to college in the early 70’s, their moms turned their bedrooms into guest bedrooms.  Translated that meant all their shit had been taken out to the curb/thrown away (without their knowledge) and when they came home there was nada.  On the other hand, my mom called me my freshman year at UT, told me she was turning my bedroom into a guest bedroom, and if there was anything I wanted in that room, I should come that weekend and get it.  Thanks to mom, I still have my baseball card collection including Don Nottebart, Bob Aspromonte, Johnny Temple, Carl Warwick, and Turk Farrell cards with the Colt .45’s and a 1965 Houston Astros card of Jimmy Wynn.  So, I’ve got that going for me.
