The Astros are incredibly good right now. I wish the playoffs started tomorrow.


No ***** I'm always amazed, longhorns and Aggies will kill each other over football but can agree on just about anything else.
I'm a little different. I'm at least 49.9% Aggie.

I forgot he said that.


Lol, then he's the centerpiece of the team we have absolutely ripped the heart out of. You hate to see it.

I know guys need a day off, but not my favorite lineup.

Which means of course we will score 10 runs.

Man I love Greinke. I hope he pitches well and gets a ND after one of their relievers blows it.

We have really had an embarrassment of riches in starting pitching since 2015.

need a good game from Diaz today.

only 5 x-base hits in 138 at-bats

which explains a lot of his meager .562 OPS

My goodness.

Is this the offense we were looking for 4-6 weeks ago?


Regression was inevitable.

Someone posted a link to this article a couple of weeks ago:https://sports.yahoo.com/mlb-teams-are-quietly-snapping-up-smart-pitching-machines-that-can-imitate-any-aces-arsenal-041849718.html

I talked to someone who works for the Astros recently and asked about these pitching machines and was told the Astros installed 2 about a month ago. I wasn't told directly what kind, but from the description it sounds like the more advanced one mentioned in the article that only 7 or 8 teams were supposedly using or had machines ordered. Not every player is apparently a fan, but Bregman was mentioned as one who supposedly is very into it.

Not saying that corresponds to recent success any more than a probable regression to the mean, but I think it's an interesting note.

Astros magic number to clinch division is only 74 games with 85 to play. Who else thinks they'll clinch before September 1st?

Trout reaches on an E-6.

that's why putting the ball in play is good

I think the box is off on tv. One ball was called a strike but one strike was a called a ball.

Geez. Peña had a 3-2 count with no swings and 5 balls thrown…. Both strike calls were clearly out of the zone. Bottom of the done is huge today….

ouch, Framber left one up in the zone
Eso si, Que es
How long do you want to ignore this user?
If they give Framber that low of a zone this game is over. No one can hit Framber if he keeps it down and they give him calls 3 inches below the zone.
