How about THANKS JIM FOR TWO WORLD SERIES TITLES AND FOR SIGNING THE BEST ASTRO EVER FOR LIFE

Fuck off, Icono

Should I thank him for closing our championship window prematurely by hanging on to Dusty, firing Luhnow & Click and signing Abreu and Montero to albatross contracts.

And you have nothing to counter my arguments. The truth is plain to see by the results on the field.

You won't know what that is until October.

Cool.  Go post in those threads.

I do. I post in all Houston sports team threads.

[Rockethorn1978 6,093]

Serious question because I don’t know but did we hire a new hitting coach this season?

The roster construction of this team is terrible. That wasn’t the case before. There was no plan to address the FA losses we suffered. We are in hell again like we were with Púrpura. 

What are you taking about?!

Are you trolling me for fun or whatever it is the kids do? Im old. I drink and I'm slow.

Let me guess, It's time to replace Yordan, Altuve, Bregman, Tucker, Dubon, Pena, Framber, JV, et al.

3 games in. Swept by ysnks in MARCH. Burn it down. Hire a preacher and tank for 3 years.

SEVEN consecutive conference championship series appearances... 

But the Rockets and Texans are the better run org.

Bro, go kick your woman's boyfriend out and stand up in it.

[David Dennison 18,922]

I just want to remind everyone one more time that the Braves team that we lost to in 2021 had a losing record coming out of the AS break.

Chill.

[D3zii 3,706]

Fuck it bring back the garbage cans!!!!!

 

[Scraps 13,562]

News flash....every MLB team will have a 3 game losing streak this season...most probably more than once

[cabowabo 4,487]

And we have to wait until next Friday for a road (winnable) game. 

[Jshep34 2,316]

This team goes nowhere with current set up. Pena and abreu have got to go.

Yes, thank him for being the best owner in Houston sports history. I hope you run into him at a fancy Chinese restaurant. 

[TejasPedro 1,858]

How are the Sabrecats or the Roughnecks doing?

Which Chinese knockoff jersey should I buy a Sabrecats or Roughnecks?

[Macklemore 2,872]

Is it too soon for a players only meeting?

Need Maldonado to lead. 

[tx 3 putt 77,061]

Please don’t get swept tomorrow 

🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

[Scraps 13,562]

Espada pinch hitting Singleton in Game 1 should probably be pinch hitting Chas for Abreu in game 3 lol

[tx 3 putt 77,061]

 

[cabowabo 4,487]

Abreu is fucking awful.

Again, I do have things to counter your arguments. Two World Series rings, motherfucker. 

You started showing up in these threads last year. Go away.

About to tie it up

Bro, the guys who built the Astros into what there aren’t here anymore BY CRANE’S CHOICE. It sucks and it’s painful and the results are plain to see on the field.

[YChang 3,453]

Alright, let’s get off the snide tomorrow. 

[Chuckie Finster 22,700]

3 wins in the last 18 home games may be the most incredible baseball statistic I’ve ever heard.

[Honeysucklerose 990]

We have lost 7 in a row at home. 16 of our last 20. Holy crap

Plain to see in three games out of 162?

After another division winning season and a trip to a seventh straight ALCS.

Good grief.

Which one?

 

(both)

[Jshep34 2,316]

My issue is I'm not sold on starting pitching staff.

How many times has the roof been open in that stretch?

 

when the weather is actually tolerable for such a thing (this entire series) maybe we should, I don’t know, try it?

That really hasn't been the issue. 

It's the bullpen and lack of offense.

[Honeysucklerose 990]

[Honeysucklerose 990]

Son of a. I was wrong.

8 in a row at home.

[Macklemore 2,872]

Not spending a second of my Easter Sunday watching this garbage tomorrow.

[perfectchaos007 6,673]

Every day we are getting closer to beginning the 5 year farm system rebuild process. I hope that window isn't already shut

[Macklemore 2,872]

 

[David Dennison 18,922]

It finally happened.

We've become Yankee fans.
