Houston Astros 2024 Season Thread

[Scraps 13490]

Lets hope Pena doesn't pull a last year and not homer again the rest of the season

July 5th was his last 2023 homer

[HtownHorn 14340]

Good news: 4 HR's against Toronto, 3 against the rest of the league. 

Bad news: Last game against Toronto this season.

[Wulaw Horn 18919]

Fucking 6 Of 7 innings lead off guy on. 

Throw strikes asshole. 

[tx 3 putt 75522]

Diaz needs to go out there, scott needs a small talk

He’s out 

[Scraps 13490]

Lol dummy

[Wulaw Horn 18919]

This should have been as quick an overturn as CB Buckner. 

[HtownHorn 14340]

He's out, this should be faast.

Boy that changes this inning fast.

Ok Pressly and Hader. Let's do something you guys have done very rarely this season.

[tx 3 putt 75522]

Very fitting for the fourth ….

 

[Overlord 366]

Ryan Pressly is setting up perfectly for a trade to Baltimore

[Gut Wagon 8038]

This is getting old. And I'm not even the guy getting plunked. 

[Mitch Hedberg 2090]

Hit a homer Jake! Another run and Hader can plunk somebody

Hader needs to go legend status, nail the first blue jay 

[runthebone 7894]

Need Tucker to protect Yordan

[Mitch Hedberg 2090]

Hit a homer Pena!

Hard to hit someone and bring tying run to the plate. Theoretically speaking

Go ahead and make it interesting Josh. 

Uh, nevermind. Play on

[elfenix 34123]

True...which is why Hader needed to have a pitch "get away from him" and ricochet through their dugout at 98. 😃

[runthebone 7894]

Good win.  Keep it going.

 

We talk about the record without pubic chin ponytail, but what are we without Tucker?

[Rip76 4883]

12 out of the last 14

Yep, I ask this last week.

Great job by the bullpen today

Trade Tuck for 5 prospects?

[UTexasFight 9304]

Hader pissing down his leg in game 6 of the season and offense pissing down their leg after a leadoff double in the 9th as the tying run away from a season sweep of these guys

18-8

19-8 if you count the game he came out of in the 3rd inning 

(holy shit I didn’t realize it’s been over a month now …June 3)

It really is crazy.

 

1.5 GBs today and good chance we are in 1st by the ASB.

Yankees falling apart as well. 6-14 in their last 20, Judge and Soto not getting any help.

They moved to D.C. in 2004 and became the Nationals.

[Guadaloopy 10802]

This team is gonna lead the division by the break, aren’t they?

lulz

[HtownHorn 14340]

Minnesota is 7-3 L10. They are playing good ball, just like the Mets.

[tx 3 putt 75522]

Keep winning series 

[tx 3 putt 75522]

Dubin starting tomorrow, another bullpen game 

dubin / Martinez / king / Contreras, guys needs to step up

Basically everyone their team besides Giancarlo started hot and the national media anointed them a juggernaut prematurely, as they typically do.

O's up 2-0 on the M's

1 hit. Seattle's offense is really bad, as bad as the Astros were in the 1st month, Seattle is 10x worse than that right now, one guy in their lineup today slugging over .400

I think the Rangers need a 10 game winning streak in July to not be sellers. 

[Mitch Hedberg 2090]

My free MLB app subscription finally coming in handy for something besides listening to radio broadcast of Astros. I had forgotten I can watch any game but Astros. Can finally watch a game. Might be watching a lot of Seattle games for a couple weeks. 

[Mitch Hedberg 2090]

Wish I hadn’t seen that. Damn orioles.

When I get my laptop out I will calculate the missed hockey years vs missed baseball years but I definitely am not doing that shit tonight.

[runthebone 7894]

Remember to discount by 10% because they are just Canadian years

Key is not to let the Twins be up in the 9th, Duran is not exactly hittable.

[Overlord 366]

Reports say Astros have a hard on for D-Back first baseman, Christian Walker. I'm watching him demolish the Dodgers, and it moved.

I never fully understood why they had “elb” on their caps.
