Not = naught
Just one timely hit in game two and they'd still be playing.
Tucker and Pena were awful on offense. Would have been better if they didn't swing at a single pitch, would have drawn more walks than hits they got.
Tucker stunk it up at the wall 67% of the time...sure he makes the catch when it didn't matter...bleh

I have no clue how accurate any of this is but an interesting read on Crane's involvement with everything. Especially the comment about being burned by Lunhow which I've never thought about.
ANATOMY OF A 🐴 💩 TAKE 🧵 #Astros 22-23 offseason, the large majority of people loved bringing back Brantley & were excited for Abreu who was considered best 1B on market (even if they went extra year to get him)

Please summarize. That's the worst way to communicate a message.
Completely agree. Twitter is the worst form of communication to get a comprehensive story across. It's a cop-out to expect people to refer to a tweet.Charlie Murphy said:

Just saw an interview with Dusty complaining about criticism…
What a thin skinned *****. It comes with the job.

Dusty needs to make like a good fart and disappear in the wind. No need to stick around and stink up the place.
Looks like no more Maldy, Neris, Maton, and Stanek as they're all going to free agency.
Neris hurts the most but guessing Graveman takes his spot.

Hope we find a way to bring neris back. Graveman has rarely looked impressive in an Astros uniform.

I would like to see all 3 relievers brought back. It is a long season and Maton and Stanek have proven to be better than most relievers out there. Hopefully they aren't trying to get Montero money. Unfortunately, Maldy has got to go. Would be nice to have him as a backup and in the dugout, but too many of the pitchers would demand he catches them, so you gotta remove that option.

Graveman was a complete waste of a rehire. He needs to go too.
They actually made it a little better. When you go to the tweet, there is a little book icon up on the top right of the page. When you click it, it takes all the tweets that make up the thread and put them all on one page.David Happymountain said:Completely agree.

I wanted AJ back.
I think he could be good.
Other than bringing back AJ, it's the best way to continue the winning culture from 2017 on.

I would have been good with AJ also. But I'm happy with Joe. It will be great to have the continuity with Joes leadership.
Any insight into his style?
Billy Wagner's kid is an Astro, Will Wagner.
Anybody been following him? Looks like he has been moving through the minors pretty quickly.
Loved watching his dad throw smoke.

Verlander to start the season on IL. That may be a good thing....he'll be more rested at the end of the season when we make our playoff run!

Maybe the shoulder will stay bum until June or July. We are going to have to fight for the division again this year, but I don't think we need JV until the playoffs, or at least the stretch run.
The bats on fire today.
