Just a random thought that popped in my head: Did Carter ever make contact last night? I know he walked all 3 plate appearances, but I can't recall a foul ball. In fact, the only swing and miss I can think of was a check swing that didn't "check".

Nope. No contact as far as I remember either. But the three walks were all pretty good ABs.

There's probably better ways to spend $300 at the game.

This. Those are going to be legit ski goggles, so unless you already have a pair and feel like wearing them, I'd pass.

Didn't realize they were so much. Never mind.

Nope that's binding. I'm scouring the interwebs right now to find these things.

Those are great

Not trying to get too far ahead of myself, but will there be a new lottery for ALCS and WS if needed or will they just re draw from the one we already submitted for for ALDS. So glad to have gotten a face value ticket for Game 3!

Yup, we've already gotten some new faces on here, and I'm sure we'll see some more. We know who's been around though.

I wouldn't go through this with anyone else but you sorry slapdeeks!!

I'm hoping we sweep the Royals so I can still go to Gm 3 and get my refund for Gm 4 and save me some money for ALCS tickets.

BTW...Anyone gotten their refund for the tiebreaker game that never happened?

According to facebook, half of my friends list has been with this team through thick or thin. The bandwagon is back. And it makes me appreciate this thread and the threads from previous seasons.

---

Mine, too. I have actually found a few people that had posts about the Rangers back a few years ago that just LOVE these Astros...

Who the hell said you were bandwagon? I just said y'all haven't been on here, which is the truth.

I got emails saying I was refunded for tiebreaker and Wildcard games. Posted within 7 business days I believe

Just because people weren't posting on threads or Facebook, doesn't mean they are bandwagon.

I've watched just about every game since root sports has been available. Been to about 20 games this year, about 15 last year, and even more the year before. When I was in purchasing pretty much every vendor knew I'd take the tickets if they asked.

---

I'm talking about people who literally couldn't name two starters at the beginning of the year. And now, these are THEIR astros.

I'm more of a lurker than a poster on this thread.

The Rangers always have a new lottery for every series.

Been here all through, I would be in the starting lineup of this thread

Thought Correa said he didn't drink? Riiiiight...

Question on how to determine how true of an Astros fan people are:

On a scale from 1-10, how much do you hate Brett Wallace?

If they don't say 10, they aren't a real fan

I'm not saying anyone is calling me out or anyone specifically. I also agree Houston is a really bandwagon city, especially in baseball which is a bandwagon sport.

I was actually jokingly commenting that I missed being able to leave the house 10 minutes before the game, park right next to the stadium for 10 bucks, and be in my seat before first pitch the other day.

Just want to comment that some people may seem like bandwagon fans if they posted something for the first time in 2 years, doesn't mean they are. Heck, I haven't missed a home A&M football game in 4 years, but based on my Facebook I haven't been to any.

Let's take a trip down memory lane. This will be fun. Off the top of my head, here are the players who have made numerous starts for our Stros in the past 3 years. Behold, I give you the Houston Astros dream team:

CF: Jordan Schafer
2B: Jose Altuve
1B: Brett Wallace
LF: Brian Bogusevic
RF: Jimmy Paredes
3B: Matt Dominguez
SS: Jonathan Villar
C: Jason Castro


Thank you, Jeff Luhnow, for saving us from that

I remember when I thought Wallace was our next bagwell.

I thought Schafer was going to be a nice prospect in the Bourn deal.
