Old Joe is actually calling a tight zone.

Okay, I'm glad someone else heard it. I thought I was going crazy.

It's also very weird to me to not have the K zone


TBS announced no K zone as a retirement gift to Joe.

I kind of wish they'd pull the zone in a bit next and maybe deaden the ball a pinch to balance that out. I really don't like modern true outcome baseball.

I mean he's calling what appears to be a true strike zone. And both pitchers are frustrated. He's changed his hole historical zone.

They tore down the across street bars for parking lots. For playoffs you can hang out around outside the stadium in the street festival area. They have a budweiser truck with a bar and live music usually. Its a good idea anyways to get into the secured areas to avoid lines closer to gametime.

Mrs. Marvin and I will be there. Not much around the stadium. Biggios or a bit of a walk to the Flying Saucer. Those are my two spots.

Maybe someone with a certain last name should see how that works?

Bellinger is just a bad hitter. They keep talking about his shoulder injury. They should ask why 2019 was so much better than his other 4 seasons. What could possibly have been happening then?

No, no, no. You just don't get it. Follow the flow chart. If there is a successful Astro you look at 2017 stats vs. other years, home vs. away, etc. If it's not an Astro, especially a major market team, you find what factors not in their control could apply. Did they have an injury, etc. Bonus points if you can pinpoint it somehow on the Astros ruining their career.
