I think he’s earned the right for a second start.   Not sure about a third yet.

Well he did give up a run, so there is room for improvement.

I’d be OK with you not posting on this thread the rest of the season. 

Yeah, Marwin has a reputation for being an asshole, but he had the biggest hit of our entire WS run. If he doesn’t hit that bomb off Jansen in Game 2, we would be hanging only one banner tomorrow instead of two. 

In summary, Fuck Slorch. This thread doesn’t have room for that kind of vitriol for our guys. 

Fuck you.  Last year was last year,

 

Marwin is playing like a fucking bitch and that's the bottom line.

 

His ABs are weak and he gets a shit-ton of called strikes.

 

He is the anti-Altuve.

 

If you don't like hearing that, then fuck right off.

Cole has been ok..

[thetruth 149]

It's the first series of the year? Holy fuck. 

[Planet Houston 4943]

Whatever dude. You won’t have to worry about him being around after this year, congrats. 

Maybe you’re trying to fill the void left by utgrad. 

[Horny Bull 2766]

Marwin got tossed?

[scottonian 36]

Marwin got the hook for arguing w the ump? I know someone who is probably happy

[Katfid54 8755]

Marwin talk is timely, topical, relevant. 

[Guest]

Not happy.

 

Stop being a fucking bitch and play.

 

Never have disputed his value in the field.

That corny ass “The Natural” music after an Arlington homer is stupid.

[Dr. Teeth 5863]

Marwin’s toss was coming. He has been complaining for 4 games. Let’s hope he settles down and figures things out. Might be what he needed.

And this is fair. Just don’t need the vitriol that Slorch was spewing.

The Ump sees it, but you can't.

 

and then you want to rule on who can and cannot post in the thread.

 

LOFL. I'm so fucking sorry for ragging on Marwin, a veteran member of a squad where the leaders of the team thrive on extra effort.

 

Marwin is not their standard.  he is a bitch at the plate.

[Dr. Teeth 5863]

I’m not saying Altuve is going to hit .500, but he might. 

[Planet Houston 4943]

Cole with 21 swings and misses. Is that good?

[Planet Houston 4943]

I’m not trying to rule anything. I was just voicing my personal preference. 

[Dr. Teeth 5863]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

[Horny Bull 2766]

Oso having himself a day at the plate. 

[Fudge Nuggets 19293]

Gattis for MVP.

[elfenix 34396]

Blancoooooooooooo!

[Gut Wagon 8152]

“_________ lines out sharply to center field” is how MLB’s Gameday has described a ton of Houston ABs in this series. We easily could have scored a lot more with another gapper here or there. 

[Dr. Teeth 5863]

Not trying to be negative but if we have too many MVP candidates, they will split the vote.

They're gonna push each other at the plate.

 

Then the pitching staff has some competitive mofos on it...

 

't shall be fun...

In Honor of Blacklab/ mourning for the Shag.

 

Fuck that snowcone motherfucker.

In related news, we'll be at osso and kristalla around 10, biggos by 11 and hopefully meet up with some of y'all, Phil, tomorrow afternoon at luckys/home plate

[Fudge Nuggets 19293]

I’m going to be traveling Monday evening so hopefully I can get a replay of the banner ceremony after the fact.

[BurntOrangeBlooded15 1635]

Do we not have a constant Astros win .gif like last year?

Going to be difficult to take a series from this team.

[thetruth 149]

Kicking the shit out of Arlington sure is fun. FTR

LOlz.

 

So sell me on Marwin's results at the plate...and subsequent/ finality of getting tossed.

 

Enlighten me, motherfucker... more called strikes MUST be the recipe for success!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TonyTexas 10587]

Slorch needs to work on his self awareness. Being a total bitch when calling out a bitch is ironical, to say the least.

[Guest]

So Marwin is off limits?

 

Even though he got tossed today?  Well after the fact that his bitchassedness was being called out?

STOP

[Southernthunder 38]

Woof Woof!

[runthebone 8183]

Scored 8 and it was just whatever.  Didn’t take anything special.  

[Lat22 4053]

[UTexasFight 9661]

Where is the ignore button on this site?
Yes Marwin has sucked through 4 games and needs to suck it up and stop complaining...and yes, he may very well have a shitty year and show 2017 was a fluke, but Jesus, scorch, give it a rest.

[Guest]

bootiefuckinghoo

 

Great job with some new players on the roster.

 

Great start to the season.

 

That being said, there's nothing wrong at all with calling out a bitchass performance across multiple games.  Marwin needs to cut out his fucking act and be a man.

 

That's all.
