He’ll answer questions about it tomorrow and as long as he doesn’t say anything salacious it’ll be long forgotten by Wednesday

4IP 4H 1ER 2BB 7K for the Cole Train today


ETA: though he did run his pitch count up to 77 in those 4 innings. Not terribly efficient.

I don’t imagine we’re going to have many starters go over 6 innings this year. Just the way baseball is going.

Plus you’ve got McHugh/Peacock/Devo for the Pen. Maybe even Paulino, who’s looked good this spring

Looks like all the guys did a great job answering questions about yesterday’s White House visit and didn’t bite on any of the media attempts trying to make any sort of controversy

Correa spent yesterday continuing to help Puerto Rico




Glad to say that’s over with and all the focus can be on baseball....16 days til opening day

With the way the World Series played out and how Peacock/Morton/McCullers all combined for some important innings.....got me thinking the last few days.

Other your top three horses, what are the cons of using the piggyback system at the ML level? Honestly, it won Game 3 and Game 7. Takes a load off the bullpen that we all know is an issue.

Just a thought.

If more stars/athletes handled themselves the way that Correa did the country would be a lot better place. I’m sure he vehemently disagrees with Trump and I think people will believe that he didn’t want to go meet him. Rather than make it about himself vs trump though he made it about people in need. Great move for the people of Puerto Rico the Astros And frankly himself as Jordan said “republicans buy shoes too”

Correa has handled things like a 10 year vet since he was 17 years old, really impressive

There was a few statements by Trump regarding the 2017 season where I was thinking, "You didn't actually watch," or "Canned response," but I liked most of his comments about the team.

Let's be honest. He's never heard of the Astros and he still thinks Jeter plays for the Yankees.

He stopped following when the Yankees lost, but he knew who knocked them out
