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:

Can we just have Abreu fake a career ending injury and DFA Singleton? 

I can't get over the decision to pinch hit Singleton for Dubon... which then left us with Meyers batting with the game on the line in the 10th (and looking completely lost doing it)

Why didn't Hader pitch the 10th?  Is every reliever completely incapable of pitching more than 1 inning?  

because these world class athletes will get injured man.  I mean in the 80s guys went 200+ innings with no issues, now the water and global warming etc has changed human biology.

Anyone know where I can get Espada's jacket?

 

Nm, looks like it's this one.  I'll probably pass at $175.

MLBPAA membership (for $25) can get you 25% off MLBShop.com orders (jerseys included, although they’d have to pay me 25% off to get me to want one of those Nike/fanatics abominations)

QT as the Royals sleeve patch is funny.  Bucee's should try to get in on that shit.

Man you throw that buck tooth beaver logo on a jersey sleeve and you’d rake in enough cash to blow by Dodger-levels of spending

Espada is in over his head and he reeks of Dusty. Our GM is a useless, powerless yes man. I see nothing that gives me reason to believe either one of them know how to fix 1B or our shitty bench. 

This X 1000. The Astros are what the Texans used to be. Astros have a general manager that is reactive, content to run out substandard players in positions we knew were weak, failing to churn the roster or make any moves with a 1B who is hitting 2-33 to start the season, topped off with David Culley/Lovie Smith quality coaching. Espada and Dana are crashing this team’s present and future into the mountain with the course set by Bagwell and Jerry Jones Crane. Every major decision made after winning the title in 2022 has been an unmitigated disaster. This is how dynasties die.

Ouch. A scathing indictment. And 100% accurate.

Lolz at thinking we know anything about this team on April 9.

Wake up, smell the coffee and open your eyes. This team is not the same one we fell in love with the past 7 years. It still has quality pieces but has been wrecked by the last 2 managers, current GM and ownership. This team will be lucky to win 85 games.
