Preface: before this turns political, take it to F16

I do not want the Astros to trade for anyone who isn't fully vaxxed. If we have to go to Toronto in the playoffs and we can't bring them with us, what a waste of resources to trade for them. I do wonder if that's why we didn't sign Graveman or Raley (both unvaxxed).



Ooooor..... the mlb can say FOOK YOU Toronto and move their playoff games to Florida
Im looking for Ray Finkle.... and a clean pair of shorts. Im just a very big Finkle fan. This is my Graceland, sir.

I really hope Toronto gets a home playoff game just to watch Manfred's head explode trying to handle this. I have to imagine every team has some players unvaxxed.

What does Manfred have to do with it? Isn't it a Canadian government deal?

Yes. He has no say. I can guarantee you the Canadian gvmt won't take away their one MLB teams massive home field advantage.

They could have forced Toronto to play in Buffalo like last year.

He certainly wouldn't do it, but I would assume he could unilaterally move their playoff games anywhere he wanted them. He moved the All-Star Game last year on two months notice, right?

Altuve
Pena
Tucker
Bregman
Diaz
Meyers
Yuli
JJ
Maldy

But Diaz reached base 4 times last night, so that's too much running for his poow wittle wegs, right Dusty?

Should we set an O/U for how many RISP Yuli leaves on base, tonight? 3.5 sound good?

One is an exhibition game. The other is not. Apples and Ferraris

He's going to get plenty of RBI opportunities to not cash in on

I'm simply saying that he wouldn't have to undermine the entire Canadian government… the idiot can administrate his league as he sees fit. Again, he would never move Toronto's playoff games to Houma, LA… but he could if he wanted to

wow, what a boost for the slumping Blue Jays.

4 games at home vs. KC...

and the Royals will be missing Whit, Benintendi, Dozier, Melendez, Keller, Singer, et al

That is 100% bull crap.

This will never ever happen but here is how you make it right.

1. For every player out due to nonsense vax laws, the opposing team selects a player to remove from the game. If we play them and say Stanek & Tucker can't play then we would select Vlad and Bo to sit out as well.

2. The opposing teams gets all their games at their stadium.

3. the BlueJays host in at a US site like say Omaha.

They should definitely do 2 or 3 if the BJ's get to host in the playoffs. They played in NY for a bit already b/c of this, so they should probably just host there. Too big of a punishment for the opposing team for something non-baseball related. Probably not going to happen though.

Dusty needs to make sure Cole and Nestor pitch in the all-star game.

NYY might have to bring up a AAA guy to start the DH

I like the A one. I bought a similar one a few years back. Those patches all over it look silly to me.

Yup, he *could* do something. Or he could do nothing. In either scenario, he will get obliterated. Either he takes away a team's home playoff game, makes a team play without players (some of which may be stars) or he effectively forced players to get vaxxed that clearly don't want to. Lose, lose, lose for the biggest loser of them all. Couldn't happen to a better clown.

I could have sworn Judge was not vaxxed and that he had played in Toronto.

I don't understand Houston. The city is constantly promoted like it's nothing but the hood. It's pretty damn annoying in my opinion…and despite a "line around the corner" how many folks that are actually Astros fans would buy those trash hats.

It's hip hop. If it's not your thing, fine.

Listening to Bun, he taking about diversity of people yet coming together. Doesn't seem "hood" to me.

I have most of the previous hats from the Bun B collections and love the style everything but the A hat is probably out of my range but I'm also not a new balance rocking cargo shorts and Aggie polo wearing type (not that theirs anything wrong with that)

To me Bun B is presenting Houston a lot like Anthony Bourdain did as a bad ass cosmopolitan super diverse working class city that is stylistically unique with black, whites, Hispanics and Asians all willing to throw down together over good food, cold beer and local music

I get that and it's not. It's just annoying to me how that is the main face of our City. Hip hop and rap, ugly a*s spinners Paul Wall, that horrible H hand signal etc. Houston's biggest draw of the year is the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo for goodness sake but the other 11 months of the year is that trash.

To each their own who like it good for them but I just don't see why on a large scale it's pushed so much. Especially for baseball

Everyone on the planet knew McCormick would offer on a slider away with two strikes.

Why he is still in an Astros uniform, much less batting second, is a mystery. Worth-less.

That hardcore 49-year-old gang banger Bun B is a villain!
