These frickers just get up here and dive in front of the plate trying to lift balls in the dirt as if they're gonna hit a 500-foot HR on a slider in the dirt.. And we're talking about bottom-of-the-order guys. You need one fricking run, and it doesn't have to be a HR with a guy on first or second.

Some of these guys have no idea how to play the game of baseball.
Broken foot diagnosed 3 days from now. RIP, Cole.
Get a leadoff double, and then get essentially 3 pop-ups and the runner never moves off second. Dogshit, unintelligent baseball.
Cam Smith is why you can’t let Dana Brown handle the draft and the trade deadline this year.

Espada sucks but this team isn’t going anywhere, anyway. The far bigger problem to fix is whatever the frick is going on with ownership and the front office.
They're just gonna make him eat. I'm for it. Let Crane see how big of a turd sandwich he let Scott Boras talk him into buying. And Imai can eat it for being a pussy.
Eighteen million a year for a guy that can't find the strike zone until the bases are loaded and needs an interpreter for the pitching coach to talk to him.

If Jim Crane wants to just light money on fire, I'd be happy for him to send some to me.
Dumb arse Espada batting him fifth. I know the bottom half of the lineup is garbage, but Smith is the worst of the trash right now.
Got him gone in the third after walking 6 in 2+.
Fitting he made the last out of the game.

Prize jewel of the Tucker trade.
No, that's just Altuve being Altuve.
Damn, Zach! The young bloods in the ninth.

Well, that figures, because the Astros have played the Reds more than any other team in the majors. They've also beaten the Reds more than any other team. The Reds were the only team that was a Houston division rival during the entire divisional era when the Astros were in the NL.

Astros and Reds were in the old NL West when it was formed in 1969, then were the only 2 West teams that went to the Central when it was formed in '94.

All-Time Astros opponent records

There was a time when Brando was on the national stage and in the upper echelon of sports commentators and announcers. That was about twenty years ago or so and it’s been a hard fall from grace. He seems insufferable now


The only person who has ever considered Tim Brando in the upper echelon is Tim Brando.

And Brando would be fine with college football being diminished because he’s a basketball guy first. Always has been.
quote:

Very lucky he stayed with the org. After he pitched well in spring and they didn’t keep him he could have exercised an option to become a free agent again.


Had to have a spot for Ryan Weiss. So give Dana Brown zero credit for Peter Lambert.

I don’t see a scenario where Dana Brown makes it to the trade deadline


Let's hope. Also wouldn't mind it happening before the draft.

Let an interim handle the draft and the trade deadline. Then go get a true baseball ops guy, empower him and stay out of his way for 3-4 years. And lose Jeff Bagwell's phone number.
Ryan Weiss has needed 55 pitches to get through 2 1/3 innings. His ERA is almost 8 in 24 IP this season. Good Lord, what a brutal signing by this excuse for a general manager.

I'll take the lead for however long it lasts.


Which was not for very long. I'd prefer never to see Ryan Weiss in an Astros uniform again. What a shitty signing.
