I saw the Brewers beat writer had a bold prediction article today and his was that Chris Carter will hit 40 Homers this year. Part of his logic was that Carter "had a down year in 2015, hitting just .199"

buddy, that's not a down year. That's Chris Carter

Good lord those lights are insanely bright. The outfielders are going to need a welders hood. Visiting teams are going to look like this dude

This guy using his glove to shield his eyes. They've got some adjustments to make.



Speaking of adjustments to make, the bullpen is starting to concern me. In the closest thing we've had to real games, they've gotten knocked around.

Just drafted Altuve in my fantasy draft so I guess you can say my Astros fandom is getting serious

I'm gonna wait until we actually play some games that matter before I'd panic about the bullpen.

We've got a talented experienced group. They'll get it together.

Strommie is a miracle worker.

Going to the game tomorrow and I guess it's ok to give it to Chris Carter Only good thing about these spring training games is cheap tickets. I bought 1 club level ticket on Stub Hub for about $12.50 with fees. I'm just pumped to finally see the good guys play in MMP.

All our runs yesterday came on Altuve's homer. Nothing today. Not a good look for our starters.

IF you want another option full of pain, ESPN Classic just started a replay of Game 6 of the 1986 NLCS.

It took me months to even re-watch our back to back Homers in the ALDS meltdown game.

Man, I loved me some Glenn Davis. I wonder how many potential homers the Astrodome swallowed up on him.

Think how many it stole from Baggy. He finished with 449. I imagine if he played his entire career with the Crawford Boxes, he's up over 500 Homers and is already in the HoF.

He's still in 84 right now. I was pegging him to get 23 but that's gone now.
