Dang. Brew Crew wasted a golden opportunity to walk off the Rags in the 9th. Going to extras. M's already won today.

Won it in 10.  3 up on Arlington.

Pretty perfect game to take a three year old to. Was over before he got too bored and got to see a couple homers. Thanks @UTPhil2006 for the suggestion about the first game certificate, had plenty of

I’m just glad I survived another season of being the official thread starter. Thank you all for your continued support in this emotional time.   In more ways than one with tonight’s result:

And holy shit, cy keuchel got the start for the Brewers.

Gave up 5 in 4 innings but good for him getting back to the bigs I guess.  I'd be happy sitting at home being Mr. Kelly Nash.

How about 1st place by the ASG?

Probably not, but another week like this last one...

Schedules are slightly favorable for us.

We each have series against MIN and TOR

we get 3 with Miami, they get 4 with Angels.

we have 3 with Texas, they have 2 with San Diego

we have 3 with Mets who have been hot, they have 3 with Baltimore who have not

+ brown and Loperfido 

Yea I was pretty low on Brown but he has unfucked himself and I like Loperfido, vlad has a big bat but he hasn’t been exactly been all world since his rookie year, I think there’s a big question to vlad’s ability in the future and his weight issue. I’d of preferred his dad.

I’d rather they make smaller moves at multiple positions, personally.  Definitely a bat at first and those are normally cheap, and then a reliever/swing man or fifth starter type.

If nothing else, drive up the price for others. I can't imagine the Astros have the right prospects to outbid whoever else wants him, but it's worth having some conversations.

Fixing the first base position for 2 years would be pretty awesome. If it takes Loperfido and a pitcher, I wouldn't mind. I don't see him fixing his strikeout rate any time soon and that's not sustainable. Hopefully the Blue Jays don't realize that...

5th guy BOR guy should be done like July 31st and only if we don’t get back 2 of Bloss, JV, Garcia and LMJ before that day. 2 of those guys back and no use messing with it at that level imo.

Let’s be real, which of those four don’t have big red flags in terms of reliability.  Plus everyone keeps presuming, without much evidence, that Garcia and LMJ would both be useful in the bullpen if we suddenly have enough starters.

Oh I get the idea. Thats why I said I’d need to see at least 2 of those guys actually back and pitching. Unless they want to go try to get a guy you’d like to see start in the playoffs.

I know Garcia can pitch out of the bullpen in ALDS Game 3s.

I expect 3 of the 4 back after the break and before the deadline. 
A bullpen arm would be good for sure. 

We need another bullpen arm with 1) the way Espada is using Scott/abreu/pressly/Hader and 2) be lucky to get 5 out of LMJ or Garcia until the autumn equinox, if then.

DNAguy has identified Sydney Sweeney as  one of his targets for a side piece.

It will take a lot to land a hottie like her, who will still be the hottest woman in the world in 2026, but she would bring her big tits and solve the current marriage dry spell problem.

Like the Astros and Vlad, you don’t have the pieces to land her.

Two of the hottest teams playing this weekend in NY. Astros currently own the longest winning streak in MLB at 7 games (8-2 L10), while the Mets are one of 3 other teams 8-2 in their L10, along with the Dodgers and Red Sox.

Baltimore plays 4 against Texas and then 3 @Seattle. Let's go Orioles.
