Some of you will remember that I used to search for longhorn tears and was quite good at it. I've retired from that, but, I've decided I'll do a special edition of astros tears for your enjoyment.


*Adolis Garcia tears*


Quote:

Starting to hate this guy
How do you think I feel about Bergman or garden gnome altuve?

Quote:

Quit pitching to that mofo.
You wish it was that simple.

Quote:

Little bit of chicken & rice vibe on Garcia. Do not like.

Quote:

He pimps the **** out of his homers that's for damn sure

* More el Bombi tears*

Quote:

Yeah. He's a cocky *******. Some pitcher will have enough if that **** eventually.
Quote:

Jesus. Stop pitching to that guy
Quote:

Quit feeding that ******* pitches to hit.
Quote:

F***
Quote:

New Pujols
Quote:

****. This. Guy.
Quote:

Guy talks a lot of **** for being on a dumpster fire of a team
Quote:

How has this guy never done anything and then AT 28 YEARS OLD randomly shows up and is one of the best players in the world?

How do players like Garcia and Arozarena get stuck in the Cards farm system and guys like Edman and Bader emerge?

If this becomes a battle of the bullpens, we have a decent shot.

Little too amped there. But, hey! 1-0 Rangers!

El bombi can't lay off the high fastball that's not a strike. They have been throwing it to him constantly since that reliever struck him out in the 8th inning last night with it and he's been swinging at it every single time.

8 strike outs today. Almost half of our outs so far the ball isn't even being put in play. That needs to improve.

This is my one concern about him once they start playing some of these teams for the 3rd or 4th series and the book on him starts getting developed. If there is a hole in that swing, it will be found.

Teams have already tried several adjustments against him and it hasn't worked too much yet. They were giving him a ton of breaking balls, but he crushed one of those for a home run yesterday.

I think coaching will address the high fastball thing after the Astros leave and we have a day off. Well hopefully they do.

Lmao @ Straw. That pitch was fully in the strike zone. Sit down

Hell of an outing by folty today. Giving this team a chance for the win and the sweep.

Folty with the clutch strikeout! Way to be aggressive in the strike zone today!

I'm just old enough to remember guys like Kevin Maas who broke into the league for the forst time at age 25+, hit a ****load of HRs for half a season, then the hole is found and things never really return. I'm hopeful for Adolis, but this whole story is almost too good to be true.

Adolis doesn't seem to be as dumb or hopeless as odor. I have more optimism in him than I ever did in odor, but I'm not gonna say the guy is going to be an all star either. We just need to see how he does over time.

Houston bullpen right on cue...

Adolis just had a good at bat.. that ball was hit very hard just right at someone.

Ohh well. 2 runs should be enough if we can get this to Kennedy.

A wild pitch and a ground ball. 2 runs score.

Way to just let them back into the game guys.

He's pretty much been an automatic out. Would rather have given Heim a chance there.

Gotta have proof to cut him! I would rather see him hit once a game than regular playing time.

Well no matter the outcome since extra innings is a crap shoot we played 27 innings of solid baseball this weekend. Lots of encouraging things to see after the schedule we had to go through the last 2 weeks.

It bothers me the same way the DH does - prefer classic game but understand the reason in today's game.
