seiferguy posted:One thing about Mariner fans is that we pick fights with random fan bases on any given year when their fans invade safeco. For awhile it was Yankee fans, then it was "Red Sox fans from Bellevue", then it was Blue Jays fans. If we played the Cubs on a regular basis at home I'm sure we would do the same to them too. If I ever go to Seattle again I'll have to make sure it's while the Astros are in town so I can come decked out in orange

So that's what it looks like if you use gate attendance instead of paid attendance

The Astros officially can't win the Royals series, so they've won every series this season except the two against the Indians and the two against the Royals gently caress both those teams

Big Mean Jerk posted:This is acceptable. And speaking of McHugh, he's officially on the 60-Day DL now. Yeah but that goes back to the start of the season. How long does that keep him on the DL from this point? We also haven't had our annual McCullers injury yet which I'm dreading

It seemed likely we'd be trading for one anyway  On the plus side you get to see what you have in Peacock and Paulino until the others get back. It's probably early to call up Martes but maybe he'll blossom

The Astros aren't a team that makes big splashes in the trade market. They won't be going for a Gray or Archer or Quintana. They'll look for like a Vargas or something. That's why any time Gerrit Cole's name comes up I just roll my eyes and don't even consider it Though it's possible the Astros are hoping to showcase Martes a bit to recover some of his trade value since he's had a rough start to the year The one "big" move they've made was the Gomez trade and that blew up in their face Now if Gerry Hunsicker was still around I'd consider it a possibility, but it doesn't seem like Luhnow's style

why are the Astros calling up a guy spotting a 5.29 ERA in AAA?

So I'm seeing that Bryce managed to pull a Benny "The Jet" and knock the cover off the ball, literally He owns

Big Mean Jerk posted:Someone go over to the clubhouse and kiss all the boo-boos and oopsies because losing (almost) the entire starting rotation due to things like "neck discomfort" and "back discomfort" is loving horseshit. This team can't survive with three glass cannons. Neck problems and back problems are the precise kinds of injuries you try to get guys better from rather than having them pitch through it. They can linger if you don't get them a chance to heal. That's like saying "Elbow discomfort? Get your rear end on the mound and rub some dirt on it" e: Also the time to let them recover from these kinds of injuries is when you have a huge division lead Intruder fucked around with this message at 20:25 on Jun 12, 2017 |
