4 runs is the magic o/u number. More and we hardly ever lose. Less and we hardly ever win.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.
Not ideal
I think as a team our batting average with RISP in meaningful situations has got to be in the bottom quarter of the league. We are just a horrible clutch hitting team. We just cannot score much without a home run.

where's Jake?

The hotel suites on road trips is a nice add in on the contractQuote:
HOUSTON (AP) Catcher Martn Maldonado and the Houston Astros have agreed to a $5.5 million, one-year contract for 2022.
The deal announced Wednesday includes a $5 million salary for 2022 and a $4 million team option for 2023 with a $500,000 buyout. The 2023 salary would become guaranteed at $5 million if Maldonado plays in 90 or more games this year.
His contract provides that he get a hotel suite on road trips plus award bonuses.

I'm starting to actually hate the Mariners. For years, I've been indifferent. They aren't to A's level of hate, but they are coming up
Big DP... now go score some friggin runs

I just hate how inconsistently we play against them. We either blow them out or play horribly

That's the thing, tjack. It didn't use to be that way. For some reason this team is Jekyll and Hyde against them. I get where you are coming from. It's annoying AF that they have games where they can't get the clutch hit.
They are consistently inconsistent.
Quick question, has Jake had a pinch hit yet?
I don't think so, He has been great as a starter not so great as pinch hitter.

nice double --- gotta score MB
Brantley trying to get back on top of the AL batting race tonight
Bunt him over. Yea I said it.
Nothing shuts an Astros hitter down like a runner in scoring position

Granted his only appearances were his first few ABs as a MLer against elite closers with 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th.
We need Yordan to be Yordan
3 innings in a row with guys in scoring position and somebody pops out to 3rd
Lousy
terrible offense
No clutch hit... again ...
But that salsa is delicious!tjack16 said:

Feast or famine
Ok I'm now firmly in the bat Tucker in the 3 spot for a few games camp.
Runner on 2nd with no outs again, murderers row or whatever batting and no run again
No he has had couple of more as well and was horrid.
"only one thing is important!"
Seems like this lineup is just poorly constructed
We cant string together hits because the guys swinging a hot bat are not in the right places

Yordan is 0-4. That's not key to an Astros victory.
LOB Kingz
Hate to admit but my first thought when Brantley's ball didn't get out was that he was going to be stranded. Pathetic
yep, the 7-hole is just too low
1 for 12 w/ RISP at home in one of the bigger games of the season
Or they're not in the lineup.
We are the most Jekyll and Hyde team ever. It's nuts that we can beat a team 11-2 one night and get shut down by them the next and do it with regularity.
