2018 Houston Astros Season Thread

[runthebone 7932]

Used Pressly in the 6th.  Who gets the 7th and 8th?

[Telegraph_it 3354]

I like Rimbo responding/quoting his own posts. Playoff baseball... too stressful. 

[RoundRobin 828]

Ramirez looks like he’s smelling a fart. 

[Telegraph_it 3354]

That is unfortunate.

Lol, you're both scaring and confusing me. I can't tell if my directvnow is behind or what. 

[Mo Horn 8807]

Their pen has sucked this year so i don't think we're done scoring

[DaysOff 7851]

This game is going to take 4 hours. I swear televised games were 2 1/2 hours when I was a kid.

[TexArcher 37513]

Need a clean frame here.  Come on, Pressly.

that's because we were in the NL when you was a kid

There is at least an extra of minute of commercials during every break.
That’s a minimum of 18 minutes right there.

Then add in an extra second or two for every pitch because of “playoff stress”.

[Mo Horn 8807]

Nasty breaking balls

[UTexasFight 9380]

Dat spin tho

[cabowabo 4453]

Bring him back out for the 8th.  He nasty.....

[UTexasFight 9380]

Beautiful inning.

 

 

I’m glad the FO doesn’t value some of our prospects as highly as a couple of posters on here.

Pressly trade is looking good right now

[runthebone 7932]

All right, let's get some of that insurance they are always advertising.

[TonyTexas 10482]

Good job Prez

[Gut Wagon 8052]

Solid work right there. Pressly has been a find. 

[Limp Brisket 546]

Pressley was described as the best pitcher you’ve never heard of in some postseason breakdown piece I read recently.

[UTexasFight 9380]

I didn’t realize Pressly had the most relief appearances in the league this year
77 in the regular season

[TonyTexas 10482]

Looks like LMJ for the 8th

[Rimbo 25781]

Maybe. He said he'd been in the bullpen from the 6th on in every game even if he wasn't needed. I think he just working out.

[runthebone 7932]

Machete hacked that shit to death.

[TexArcher 37513]

MALDONADOOOOOOOOO!!!

[Mo Horn 8807]

Welcome to the fun Maldonado

I love lead off homers! But man can we get a 3 run dinger? Yeah I'm greedy.

Yeah, the stuff he was doing in the 4th or 5th was just regular work.

[UTexasFight 9380]

Text exchange with a buddy this morning...
I guess in hindsight, we basically named the entire lineup, but when you’re right, you’re right?

[Mo Horn 8807]

Way to go with the pitch George

[Scraps 13542]

Maybe. He said he'd been in the bullpen from the 6th on in every game even if he wasn't needed. I think he just working out.

He's already been up when he went out there in the 4th. Then back up now, but sat down once Machete bombed. No one up at the moment. Let Pressly roll.

The bats are waking up....

Love the Machete.  Great pick up.

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

Would love to see Bregs take Tyler deep.

[HoustonFrog 368]

Bauer isn't healthy to start? Sweeeeeet

Pressly and Maldanado were both great pick ups. 

[Gut Wagon 8052]

Please...a 110 mph line shot to blast this doorknob right off the mound.
