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.

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?
When you're waiting for a Zack Attack and you realize they're leaving Chas in to hit.

I've said this before: I know the pitching staff loves him but I'm excited for the Maldonado era at catcher to be over next year or 2023
Quote:
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.
The hotel suites on road trips is a nice add in on the contract

He digs that mini-kitchen with the 2 burners at the Homewood Suites.

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

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.

Granted his only appearances were his first few ABs as a MLer against elite closers with 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th.

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.

Hate to admit but my first thought when Brantley's ball didn't get out was that he was going to be stranded. Pathetic

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.
