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:

I’m so sick of watching Abreu look like a feeble old man and Singleton stand around with that sour ass look on his face. I want them both gone. There were hardly even any smiles after the game. It’s just a dead dugout. Doesn’t look fun.

Jose Abreu is the worst free agent signing in Houston Astros history

Jim Carrey Yes GIF

What's even the competition?

A lot of people here sure did cuss Keith Law for calling it though...complete with saying his bat speed was way down 2nd half of 22.

Off the top of my head...

Carlos Lee - wasn't terrible but not worth the money on bad teams

Drabek/Swindell - neither lived up to the hype

Kaz Matsui

Jim Clancy - pretty bad as a Nolan "replacement".  Probably my 2nd place finisher.

Part of it is that McMullen and Drayton were so cheap and Crane won't give out long deals but I think Abreu is far and away the worst signing we've made.  We let Springer, Correa, Bregman?, and Tucker? walk for the fear of a few years of dead money after several more good years and then hand out a contract that is dead money from the start.
