Straw tried to go back to back...he forgot he has no power


Straw counts it as a home run if it goes more than 200 ft in the air.


Ahem...
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

Ok, Maldy with a simple jogging standup double is maybe even more ridiculous than a Straw homer

That was a cool Altuve statfirst player ever to hit a walk off slam and lead off homer the following game.

Glad Straw is pulling the ball a little more. I think he'll get himself some more hits if he can do that.

Do we know how many stadiums that Straw homerun would be out of? I seem to remember one in that same area a couple weeks ago that would have been just MMP and the Trop in Tampa.

If that's the case, good (lucky?) on Straw for making use of the stadium he's playing in.

Last season Randy Arozarena came out of now where for the Rays with an insane power surge. He hadn't hit like that before in his career.

Randy said before the season he was pretty much was locked in a hotel eating only chicken and rice while doing push ups.

MLB wasn't testing for steroids, so some people were skeptical it was really only chicken, rice, and push-ups that led to the power surge.

Garcia for the Rangers busted on the scene as a 28 year old rookie with a crazy power surge. Hence, chicken and rice.

Arrozarena last Fall claimed to have gotten all his mysterious power by being covid quarantined and eating boiled chicken and rice and doing push-ups. Of course he did.

Garcia looks to have magically done the same. Same result from the same diet.

You gotta admit...the pre- and post-exchange about Straw's HR prowess was fun.

It has to be genuine. I actually think Robel has a little potential, which is probably the kiss of death.

For sure, and I'm always happy to be wrong when it means good things for the Stros. Ultimately we all just want to win and all the walk their ass back to the hotel talk gets rescinded in a heartbeat if a guy comes through.
