If he sucks, at least there will be lots of Pop the Kikuchi jokes.

[UTexasFight 9819]

Here’s to hoping he’s better than Aaron Sanchez!

At least we'll win if he throws a combined no-hitter tonight.  Probabbly.

Altuve's numbers are still elite for a #1 guy
we haven't had a lead off hitter since springer left, but altuve has held his own 

Altuve is the least of this team’s issues. But his baserunning does still make me want to punch someone.

If everyone would actively start trying to draw walks instead of trying to not strike out,  it would fix a lot of this shit.

that going away pitch outside the strike zone is our kryptonite

i have zero idea why Altuve even sees other pitches. I’d throw those at him until he strikes out every at bat

Well, if he lets it hang out rather than hang over the plate, that would be fine (metaphorically speaking of course).

This deadline doesn’t excite me at all.

I wanted more than a below average Junk and Kilkuchi.

Not splashy at all.

On one hand, it’s at least an effort.

But the lack of a big bat makes me wonder if the front office truly knows the ins and outs of running a team.

i just can’t see it.

[tx 3 putt 78763]

Trade deadline need’s to be moved back to mid August

What happened to the old days of covering up injuries?  Must be the guaranteed contracts.

You never get a second chance to make a first impression.

[kevwun 16449]

Shocking that the guy who has been ass keeps being being shitty.

[Scraps 13812]

Not only did he give up 2 runs but it was 2 guys we could have fucking traded for to get better

[tx 3 putt 78763]

About to strike out the fucking side !!!!!!
