Jim Crane on celebrating the #Astros 2021 ALCS title with fans 1 more time: “Tonight we’ll give some rings (to the players). Dusty was saying he didn’t know how many rings he had. I can tell you how many we got. We got three now, two AL and one World Series. We’re not done yet” pic.twitter.com/RvNtB9y9UB

With McCullers being placed on the 60-day IL, we will not be able to see him pitch in Houston until June 18th. If rehab goes well, we could see him in Sugar Land before that date.

I bet his return gets pushed until after the All Star game
Also I think Schwab is wrong on the earliest return date. His 60 day clock would retro back to the start of the season so he could return in early June instead of June 18th
Sold
Jim Crane w/ a message to @astros fans:”Talking about the payroll.The payroll’s driven by the fans-They pay the bills.I try to use the money wisely.We have great fans.Thank u Houston for your support-If we got to make some adjustments at the turn,we have the resources to do that” pic.twitter.com/t3L53SL3tg

Not sure if I should give a cynical translation of that or not...

Why would it need to be pushed that late?
He's throwing now. If everything reacts fine, then he's throwing bullpens in a few weeks. Then a modified spring trying to build up with some rehab starts. Call it 6-7 weeks. Why not early June? Mid June if the June 18th date is accurate. That leaves ~90 games (doing in my head) 15-18 starts. Seems reasonable to get some value out for the season and have him ready for the postseason without wearing him down.
Might miss opening night tonight. Thanks to my flight being delayed in Hobbs 
Gig’em Aggies!
#Astros say the roof will be open tonight.

James Click said moving Lance McCullers Jr to the 60-day IL does not change his prognosis and is not indicative of any sort of setback.

Anthony Rendon is not starting anymore because he has a stomach bug, Joe Maddon said. Mayfield in.

Now trout and rendon are out
Watching BP while the roof slowly opens sippin a tall boy. Life is good.
Where are you, Ag? I'm in 107.
Girls loved them some of my nephew. Kid is a natural.

The Minute Maid Park roof will be closed tonight because of mechanical issues.
— Brian McTaggart (@brianmctaggart) April 18, 2022
Also, the freestyle Coke machine in the dining room is having mechanical issues.
Too bad they couldn't break it in the world series
Now it's officially a known issue. When WS comes around it'll happen again.
I can't stand the advertisements on the field
I thought the open roof at the World Series was amazing last year. Game 2 it felt perfect outside and it was a beautiful night

Stopped by on my own beer run. R27 was empty. An unsuccessful TexAgs hookup…
Just get your extra ripped pants ready.
Roof won't work. Concession registers in my area are down. Few workers manning the beer lines.
But baseball!
But baseball!
Also both escalators to get from the bottom level up to the upper levels broken and Karbach on the 300 level was out of beer.
Baseball!! But MMP apparently is still in the off-season.

So we're we the last home opener this season?
Someone forgot to get the updated lineup to the announcer.
Fought through a sea of orange and blue for #2 - this place is packed
