Missed the first inning, really liked pitch selection and execution in 2nd inning by Sanchez. Machete was talking him up through the inning. Really looking forward to seeing more of that curve and change

ETA - has he thrown any sinkers yet?

The sunflower seed story is funny. Reynolds seems like a down to earth good dude, Poor collegiate choice though.

Sanchez's breaker looks eerily similar to CFM's. Curious to see if they can unlock some additional velo for him moving forward.

Do Astros rely on the Grand Slam or the Ace pitcher more?

He may get rocked next inning but no one is going to trade with us anymore.

Haha!!!

On the other hand some of our former guys are contributing nicely on their new teams.

Hader, Santana, Musgrove, Moran, Velasquez, Lareano

Quite a few guys proven to be decent MLers.

I was thinking this earlier. At what point do other teams not want to trade with us because Luhnow makes other GMs look stupid.

I love hearing him talk.

I was thinking the exact same thing. Now we get Arod, some chick, and some other dude.

He would probably agree with you. During his time in Houston I remember him saying that he hated Cliff Gustafson for the way he was used. He used those words.

You only have to look about a week in the past to see that that has already happened.

Reason being he is old... but he looked like a 45 y/o even when he played. But I would trade looking like a thinner Winston Churchill if I could have his splitfinger fastball.

That is true Harry. We met him at a signing a few years ago and he's one of the most down to earth guys
