He overvalues himself and his opinion.

Only good thing he ever did was chunk that baseball over CF after being pulled

Still can't believe someone did that

TLDR. Don't care about your thoughts Bauer. Go pitch.

Would be nice if the team specific media members would let this line of questioning die off a bit. Don't need the same questions and answers everyday from the players.

Exactly.

I say again. Please let the Red Sox get hammered just like us. We need the Boston media which is a tad stronger than ours to go after everyone else. We need a Red Sox Jomboy (who is really just baseball Alex Jones in my opinion)

No you know Chandler Rome will ask these questions every day this season

I'm going to be in the minority here, but I think a very simple and effective solution would be just to ban all technology. It would eradicate all this mess and further speculation.

I can see it now... Bregman hits a walk off RBI double off an off speed pitch vs the A's in a game in May at home. First question from Rome is "do you believe you would have hit a HR in the same situation in '17 with the assist from the trashcan banging?"

I find it funny living in Boston now, their local media defends their teams to the grave. They are annoyingly loyal and passionate. Their press defends their teams and acts like homers.

But not Houston. We gotta eat our own and "keep it real". Good job guys. Not like the national media won't already eat us alive every opportunity they get.

If the Astros were smart they would bring in several wrestling heels to talk to them about the psychology of being viciously demeaned night in and night out while on the road. The reality is that the Astros are going to be good for business on the road as opposing fans whipped up by the media and player rhetoric are going to come out in droves to be able to join in on the spectacle.

"The facts are still coming out"

Clearly JV knows something.

Well, Reddick is friends with Ric Flair.

This whole sign stealing ordeal is a case study on the pitchfork mentality that social media drives and the national media latches onto to drive traffic to their "news" sources. Facts don't matter. All the implications of other teams don't matter. It's "be interesting, not accurate" at its finest.

You got that exactly. The Houston media, whatever we have, needs to grow a pear and start openly talking about the specific teams mentioned in various reports. Someone should have asked crane in front of the national media if he was upset that the Yankees and Dodgers were targeting them when they have been rumored to be doing the same thing. There was the first question that referenced other teams but it was not specific. We need to go on the offensive and start calling out other teams. But most our media want to move into a national position so they wont rock the boat and go along with the perceived story. Just disgusting.

Bregman: "Probably, but the one thing for certain is I'll be hitting a HR tonight while I'm banging your girl...call me, Babe! <winks>"

The issue is that as far as sports media goes LA, BOS, NY are the top. That's where all these guys wanna be. Once they're there they don't need to make a name for themselves.

Nobodies like Rome need to make a name for themselves and get noticed in order to get there so until they do they'll do whatever it takes for pub.

He's a worthless hack who's in it for himself. Reporting anything worthwhile is way down on his list of priorities.

Who said "screw you, we are champs"? Pretty sure everyone on the 2017 Astros has issued an apology.

I cannot wait to see LMJ pitch this year.

He's gonna be a piss and vinegar filled banger spinning machine.

Seriously this is a big year for him and I expect him to step up and be a stud.
