Can I get just as fake offended by this as the Mexican-American community did when we were going to call the Hotshots Houston 1836?

I would tattoo any Astro on my ass if the jersey had a subtle "'Sippin' lean, sticky green while I clown the whole scene" stitched into it.

I'd get another on the other cheek if the other sleeve says "Welcome to the land where it just don't stop."

Can we just get a H Tine jersey? Would sell like hot cakes. Hol it Dine on the sleeve and a orange and blue drop top with swangers as the logo. That jersey would print money

Ranking the 10 Best Rotations in Baseball


Quote:
5. Astros
Justin Verlander, RHP
Framber Valdez, LHP
Luis Garcia, RHP
Jos Urquidy , RHP
Cristian Javier, RHP/Jake Odorizzi, RHP

The Astros' 3.63 ERA last season was the second-best in the AL and the fifth-best in the Majors. And that came despite the veteran Zack Greinke, who has since departed in free agency, taking a step backward, and with Verlander still stuck on the shelf.

So the return of Verlander potentially augments a group in which the previously unproven Garcia (123 ERA+ in 155 1/3 innings last year) and Valdez (132 ERA+ in 205 1/3 innings over the last two years) pitched them deep into the World Series in his absence. There is, however, concern about McCullers' continued issues with the flexor tendon in his throwing arm, and who knows how Verlander will perform at age 39 in his return from Tommy John surgery. For now, we'll take our chances and bet on the Astros continuing to get quality innings and length from their rotation.

That list...

Blue Jays are too high. Their rotation is good, but imo, not the 3rd best in baseball.

The Giants are too low, and why are the Yankees on the list?

Javy Baez being in front of Rendon, Story, and Lindor is definitely interesting.

All 3 had down years last year while Baez flourished in NY when he tweaked a few things.

Top of the batting order in ST is for evaluation purposes I think, which is why they've hit Peña up there as well.

and he couldn't throw strikes. I'm not one for selling low but sometimes you gotta know when to walk away.

5 options since August 2021. Only for 1-2 weeks each time. I forget how it works, but I think they have to be optioned for a given length of time for it to count as an option.

Anyways, hope he has a good year. Throws hard.
