I thought after 2022, they were going to go on a heck of run.  In reality it was just that a whole bunch of dudes had their career year at the same time.

Just like 2017

Almost warrants an avatar change.

Yeah that was what I was considering....

It’ll be too little, too late ….

 

[Guadaloopy 10964]

Ronel Blanco...

[TejasPedro 1858]

It’s one thing to have a Roger Dorn, on the team, but a whole clubhouse full of them? Damn,  I’m now told to believe this team just got sick and tired of winning.

It's very likely too little too late, but this dugout could use LMJ's attitude right now. If they get buried in the H this year, so be it. But they need to go down swinging.

[Scraps 13561]

If anyone gives a shit...

[Pablo 494]

such sad depressing stats up and down this lineup

[The Dog 44043]

 

[UTPhil2006 3807]

Fram Javi JV in Detroit. If we don’t take 2/3+ sell the team to that bitch from Major League 

[tx 3 putt 76933]

Who just called 790 with inside scoop ??

astors are trading for aj hinch very soon. JV for Hinch

I was just looking at yesterday's box score.  In the first 6 innings, Astro pitching gave up 10 hits and 5 walks.  So 15 baserunners in 6 innings. 

 

[tx 3 putt 76933]

The four special release caps today run a little big. I went one size down. You get two free pins too.

Off center H bugs the shit out of me

Yep.  Not a fan.  As far as this afternoon, the last thing I want to see is a first inning solo HR by Tucker.

[Wulaw Horn 19069]

Meyers really must have fucked Espada's wife for something.  Motherfucker can't start 3 games in a row even with success and hitting the ball hard.  

[tx 3 putt 76933]

Pitches off the plate baffle us 

[Rip76 4925]

Crushed

when there’s a space shuttle beside it

[Rip76 4925]

Boom

[tx 3 putt 76933]

Singelton !!!!!

[Rip76 4925]

[BrickTop 477]

You don’t even have to wait for after singleton touches it, the bat flip will tell you.

[Mitch Hedberg 2090]

A ball two feet away from a tie game to a strikeout and double play. Turn worm, turn! 

[cabowabo 4484]

WTF Tucker?

[Mitch Hedberg 2090]

Well shit. That sucked.

[Storm the Field 5294]

Damnit. Had a chance to blow it wide open there. Tucker swung at Ball 4 to K with bases juiced.

2 singles and a double that inning and no runs.

There’s really nothing unsustainable about the hitter Singleton has been since he got everyday run.  An 870 ops in May which would be badass for a cheap 6 hole hitter who plays a passable 1B.  Plus he’s fun to watch.  Dude absolutely crushes the ball.

[cabowabo 4484]

Holy shit Bregman.  Fucking quit already.

[Limp Brisket 546]

Of course

[tx 3 putt 76933]

Breggy pop up !!!!

[cabowabo 4484]

And why the fuck is he batting 6th?  There is absolutely no reason for that.

[WBT 20564]

Bases loaded with one out and runner on 3rd with no outs the last two innings and we don't score.  I'm sure it's fine though.

[Gut Wagon 8065]

Bregman will heat up. In June, when we're 19 out. . 

[WBT 20564]

Damn little league park

[BrickTop 477]

Does Stroman exist on the outside corner with his shitty ass pitching style by the good grace of the umpires? Half these strikes called aren’t really hittable.

[Lat22 4014]

He was going to be out anyway. 

[Scraps 13561]

Challenge something that we are gonna lose one way or another....Captain Brainiac over there

[UTexasFight 9432]

Wtf are we doing.

 

If we blow this, add “stupid early game challenge” to the list of dumb ways we’ve found to lose games this year .

[Scraps 13561]

Damn i haven't been that fired up for a double play in the 5th inning of a game probably ever

[Scraps 13561]

Aaron boone needs a tighter shirt

[UTexasFight 9432]

When j saw Stanton’s laser yesterday was 119.9 I was wondering if anyone had ever had one harder

 

Nope.  Arrighetti can claim allowing the hardest hit ball ever recorded
