Nice little road trip. It’s a shame that the win streak will be over tonight or tomorrow. Everyone knows damn well we aren’t sweeping the worst team in our lifetimes. Well maybe not Wahoocs. He was probably alive for the ‘62 Mets
In other news, sounds like Whitcomb getting called up

Astros are inducting Ken Caminiti into their HoF this weekend. Why? I don’t know. Let's take a look at his averages over 10 seasons in Houston
1037 Hits (103/yr)
546 RBIs (54/yr)
103 HR (10/yr)
.264 BA
.732 OPS
0 Gold Gloves
1X All-Star in 10 seasons
Oh yeah, and...

If the Astros previous history is any indication, this series will result in being swept by an inferior team out of nowhere.

Yep. 100% because he was bagwells BFF

He was also close with Biggio, and is buried on Biggio’s ranch. Good player but he had his best years when he was completely roided up in San Diego.

If tweet fails to load, click here. Definitely should have him to give Pena a few breathers before playoffs.
Also our pitchfork Twitter fans think the 40 man move is going to be DFA Chas.

I wasn’t around for the Miracle Mets, but spent much of my childhood immersed in baseball history. Read and re-read books my grandmother had and damn near memorized every record.
In the 5th grade I bought the NL Green Book and AL Red Book and contacted every team by mail to say my family was visiting during the summer and could they please send me any info that could help me prepare and enhance our experience.
I still have boxes of team pics, media guides, everything beyond imagination from every team. Some better than others. The mailman thought a baseball phenom lived at our residence.
Back on topic, Caminiti’s biggest contribution to the Astros was helping Biggio and Bagwell get in the HOF, if you know what I mean

There was some good off day discussion that was buried by our obviously greedy, money hungry, Astro hating Overlord in the previous DAT
And I wonder if JimTiger72 thinks the Rangers will still be in 3rd place next week with the Angels breathing down their necks?

I would be stunned if it’s not Aledmys
Posted on 8/16/24 at 11:16 am to DalenSA
Is it not going to be Aledmys? He’s an infielder like Shay.

Oh Lord
Also wonder if Yordan goes back to doing nothing now that we're back in Houston

He has naturally been blocked from everyone’s memory because he never plays

They painted to hitters' eye in minute maid darker while we were on the road trip. Curious to see if that makes a difference.
