2018 Houston Astros Season Thread

[perfectchaos007 6,677]

Dammit Tyler White

[DaysOff 7,977]

So far it's being called left thumb discomfort. So anywhere from 1 game to amputation.

[Viper 12,112]

I'm thinking, no

[Mo Horn 8,855]

More fail by White and Davis

[mbtex 683]

Should have pitch hit with Yuli

[TonyTexas 10,535]

All of our big, white prospects suck. I hope Seth Beer can break the trend.

[UTexasFight 9,551]

Jake!!!!

[mbtex 683]

Jake!!!!!!!!!!

[Scraps 13,584]

Harris can thank Jake for that one

[clapclapclap 9,000]

He saved your ass, Harris.

[Seasick Sailor 3,747]

Fuck yeah, Jake!!!!!!!!!!!

[TonyTexas 10,535]

OMFG!!!

Tucker tearing up AAA pitching again, so maybe next time he gets the call he will do better. 

And Jake with a great defensive play as I type. 

[DaysOff 7,977]

Let's get some fucking runs.

[Scraps 13,584]

Add another.

Cocksuckers

[mbtex 683]

Again 

[Seasick Sailor 3,747]

For fuck sake

[mbtex 683]

These Fucks

[UTexasFight 9,551]

7 Astros hbp this weekend

[David Dennison 18,951]

It's a tragedy that Jake Marisnick can't hit.

[Mo Horn 8,855]

 No clutch hits so far today. 

[Scraps 13,584]

I like how Julia handles a wiener

[UTHornFan014 710]

I really don't like when we play both Davis and White at the same time. Should (hopefully) be the last time this season

[Mo Horn 8,855]

Nice inning by Ryan. 

[runthebone 8,050]

Does that radiologist give us a 3 for 2 discount?

[UTexasFight 9,551]

THAT was a nice AB

[Mo Horn 8,855]

I'll let Jansen have success today and wait until the World Series to beat him again. Sweep would have been nice, but I'll take a series win. 

[UTexasFight 9,551]

4-2 road trip so far. A’s still gained a game over that stretch but I’ll take it.

Now just hurry and wait on the doctors

[Hank Chinaski 6,322]

4/6 in Seattle and LA, without Altuve or Correa, is a success. Fingers crossed for Springer. Seems like he's about ready to get going at the plate too. Ugh. 

[Chuckie Finster 22,756]

For most of the game today, we were playing without 6 of our normal 9 in the lineup. Nuts.

[Rustic Horn 929]

The MRI is what will matter, not the x ray

I don’t mind either of them playing when we’re mudholing somebody. But usually they’ll need to sub in, or we won’t get to the mudholing stage. 

And this weekend is a case in point as to why run differential, in and of itself, means jack. I figured today was coming after yesterday’s “wasted” runs.

At least it's not broken.  Something could be still be torn or partially torn, but I'll take any good news at this point.

[Scraps 13,584]

This may be known already but the Corpus game is on FSSW

[tx 3 putt 77,560]

Go Hooks !

At least there's a chance he'll live. 

[Scraps 13,584]

Do you really need a thumb? I mean cut it off and figure out how to hold the bat. Jim Abbott played without a fucking hand for god's sake.

[tx 3 putt 77,560]

I’m guessing Correa comes back the first game of the home stand ?

At the rate we are going the chances he catches Ebola seem reasonable  

 

[Mitch Hedberg 2,090]

Derek Fisher being called up according to The Athletic.

[Mez2 4,025]

has he learned to hit yet? 

[Pablo 495]

A's just acquired Fiers from Detroit.

 

[Horny Bull 2,766]

 

[Mez2 4,025]

let's hope that doesnt turn out like altuve's knee discomfort.

Taking this at face value, which is always risky with this front office, it's about as good as could be expected considering how it looked initially.  

[Mo Horn 8,855]

So do they call Tucker back up since they need another outfielder? He's been hitting well again for Fresno. 

Nevermind... Just looked and the recalled Fisher.
