Watch the Astros do something stupid like sign Harold Ramirez.

[Mez2 4023]

I find that offensive as a Ramirez

Welcome our new first baseman:

 

[Wishbone 4759]

Finally did it!
Hopefully Bagwell will not be involved in whatever they do with regard to roster decisions going forward.

What a long and twisted road to: Jon Singleton: Astros regular starting first baseman

Cooper Hummer wouldve been cooler

[Beau Vine 54209]

Never forget.

[Overlord 366]

They aren't even reporting it on MLB Network ticker, but they ran the Vulvabulb DFA. I thought they would love reporting the negative Houston news. That's a lot of money down the drain. 

[runthebone 7967]

Well, I'm glad Crane is willing to eat the money at last.

 

Winning streak starts tonight

They finally ran it. 

Can we trade Framber and Lance to Baltimore for Sig Mejdal?

Same here.  I thought he was really going to do some good things for us, but other than a little spurt at the end of last year that carried over to the playoffs he was horribad.  I hope this convinces Crane that the team ain't Bagwell's fantasy league team and never listens to him again.

Lil Shep just got asked to start taking fungo at first

Let’s not be stingy.  We can throw in Bagwell also as a token of goodwill.

Even with the slow start last year, he was one a the few players on the team that produced in the playoffs. He earned last year's salary at least.

He’s lost a lot of weight by using SOTA weight loss.

[Macklemore 2876]

 

[Scraps 13561]

So can we still vote Abreu into the all star game?

Can confirm I have seen Phil try and start the wave numerous times at games

[Jshep34 2308]

I'm going to send lilshep down there in next inning to start the wave next to them.

[cabowabo 4484]

Does Abreu make that play?
