Its so fun rewatching the games without the stress. I forgot so much like McCain's multiple big atbats. And Giles getting some big outs. But best of all I can fast forward Reddicks at bats.


Post season or regular season? Because Reddick was a huge contributor during the regular season.

Rewatching game 3 on MLB Network.

Peacock was absolutely filthy. We were there and we knew he was dealing but watching from the tv angle really makes you realize how unhittable he was.

8 discs??? WTF is on 8 discs?

Has to be all 162 + playoff games.

Would also be nice if that was included in the item description.

I would just like to point out how appropriate it was that the Dodgers' last out in game 7 was hit into the shift.

Yea, kind of odd with no description but I'm guessing they will throw in a lot of behind the scenes and bonus materials. Plus I'm hoping you will have the ability to rewatch the playoff games in full length from ALDS to WS. Should be enough room on that many discs. I still have my VHS tapes from the Rockets back to back ships so I will definitely be adding one of these to my collection

Gather around the TV and watch this eye-catching video and show everyone how proud you are to be a Houston Astros fan.
That seems pretty detailed to me. Don't you want to show everyone how proud you are?

Here is the description from the Cubs 2016 version, not much better but a little more detailed:


Quote:

As a die-hard Chicago Cubs fan, 2016 was an amazing year for you because that was the first time since 1908 that they won the World Series! Now you can forever remember that amazing series against the Cleveland Indians when you get this Chicago Cubs 2016 World Series Champions Commemorative 8-Disc Blu-Ray set. This extraordinary Blu-Ray set boasts eight full game broadcasts including all games from the 2016 World Series, bonus games from the postseason, and extra features that you won't want to miss.

Oh yeah...I just grinned when I thought about us starting next season's thread and seeing it titled somehow with Defending WS Champion.

It'll be pretty sweet seeing that at the top of the board all season long.

Yeah a little bit better. But that's pretty weak to not give any description like they have it now.

Yeah. It wasn't a wife ban. Or at least my wife. It was Justin Verlander's wife (or very soon to be wife) that got me in trouble. I might have posted a rather bannable picture of Kate in Game 5. Ok. I might have posted several but one got left up. But at the time we needed it.

That's just insanely awesome stuff. Win the World Series and then get hitched to Kate Upton. Justin Verlander is doing ALRIGHT.

What a whirlwind for this guy. In a span of 67 days:

* Traded from (64-98) Tigers to (101-61) Astros
* ALCS MVP
* 2 WS appearances (6 total in playoffs)
* Team wins WS, and his first
* Marries supermodel Kate Upton in Italy

I would not mind being Justin Verlander right now.

Cool time to revisit the thread titles that got us here. What a disaster 2016 was with two season threads. Can we all agree that mazag08 starts the 2018 season thread AFTER spring training is over? Kudos to everyone that's been posting since the dark years.

What I also noticed was that three different times between 2013 and 2017, we increased our win total by 16+ games from the previous season. I wonder how many times that's been done. That's three out of four years! Here's to 117 wins in 2018!

is anybody else super excited for the home opener next season? I assume that is when they will have the ring ceremony.

Also what color do y'all think the pennant will be? The other ones are navy, with the NLCS pennant being red/orange. I'm guessing this one will be bigger and gold?

User: Why did you put that throw right on the money in Game 7 of the ALCS and crush my hopes and dreams?
But for a more serious one, the Astros organization under Jeff Luhnow has been considered a very "analytical" one in recent years, for lack of a better term. Was it difficult to come into a team like that where things weren't always done in a traditional baseball sense or were you right on board from the start?

AB: Was not on board at all at the start, but have grown to really respect it and understand how much it can help our team.

Quote:

User: who is the funniest guy on the team?

AB: Funniest guy on the team is Brian McCann. Hands down not even close.

Quote:

User: Did you choose to ride with Tower 69 during the championship parade, or was that just a happy little coincidence?

AB: That was Keuchel's fault

Quote:

User: Have you bought those wheel barrows yet?

AB: 40 are on the way
