We have tucker for 3 more full seasons. He's an all star and gold glove.
I'm going to assume this post is a parody and not actually saying trade Tucker.
So bravo, funny joke. You almost got us there

So with Boegarts out in BOS it's pretty much a no brainer that Correa reunites with Cora as a Red Sox.
The #Astros owner Jim Crane is making a decision- LIKELY TODAY

I tell you if Click should be gone or not and why they are in such a rush to catch up to the rest of the league.
It's the #offseason. We got you.#LevelUp #MLBhttps://t.co/mJbmxT5LfT
Fangraphs predictions for the top 1B
Rizzo 2/38
Abreu 2/32
Mancini 1/10
Bell 2/18
They all seem low to me. I'd do any of them in a heartbeat.

I know Siri did well in Tampa but I'll take Chas over him any day

They have Story. And could still sign Boegarts.
Let's go!!
@johngranato @LanceZierlein BE AWARE If you’re coming downtown for the parade there’s no porta potty’s (even though the city said there would be), the one right at city hall is pad locked, all business are not letting people use the bathrooms in towers. We are at smith/mckinney

He absolutely did not flourish. His bat was still terrible.
Now we know where Tim Purpura is. Posting on TexAgsAg4life80 said:

Neither Siri nor Chas is a long term answer in center, but Chas over Siri was absolutely the correct clubhouse move this season. That's something I never thought I'd say.

Im looking for Ray Finkle.... and a clean pair of shorts. Im just a very big Finkle fan. This is my Graceland, sir.
MAGA

What do the tumblers look like?
I know KHOU is streaming the parade. any other places doing it with better commentators who actually know WTF baseball is?
Someone have a quick photo of the 2017 plaque from n_touch? I see the design on his site but would like to see a final product. TIA!
Live streaming abc13 all day. Decided: I will be at the next parade. Pretty jealous right now.

Thoughts and prayers to those of you trying the parade.
As much as I love the Astros I think being downtown with that many people could sour my mood from this Astros win.
I'd have to be in the right mood. Do I want hang out with thousands of the finest uneducated Houston Astros fans and party all day? Or do I just want to watch it on tv.
If Chas' strikeouts decrease, he absolutely could be a long-term answer. Still a young guy with room to grow. George cut his strikeouts down year after year while playing CF for the Astros.License to Gig said:

As a matter of fact, his strikeout % went down in 2022 from 2021 and his walk % increased for the same time period.
He hit 14HR in 359 ABs this year. He could hit 25 next year with full playing time.
I'd take that out of a CF that plays a plus defense.
Well written article and correctly points out that Dusty apparently didn't want the help.

Yeah dusty wanted a backup catcher and a left handed reliever. He also said on the radio the day of the deadline he wanted a center fielder (I can't imagine that went over too well with the guys on the team). They got a good backup catcher in Vasquez. As far as the lefty, they were more trading away odorizzi than trading for Will Smith. They got somebody to quiet dusty and thankfully he was never asked to contribute in the postseason. I was convinced dusty was gonna trip over himself to use Will Smith in every game, and I'm happy he proved me wrong.
Not sure if you're talking about this one or not, but I love mine!Ag_07 said:

I don't see any chance Click is back. While I wish Dusty would ride off into the sunset with a title, I think he wants to come back for another title.EastCoastAgNc said:The #Astros owner Jim Crane is making a decision- LIKELY TODAY

Crane would destroy a lot of the current Astros feel good in Houston and around the nation if he dumped Dusty now. Although, I think he wants Joe Espada. So, I think you bring Dusty back for one year and sign Espada to some elevated cash and publicly name him the Manager in waiting.
What do you boys want for breakfast BBQ ?.....OK Chili.
Man, I have to admit... I've been out of the gritty details loop. There's actual hearsay out there that Crane wants Click gone?
Damn you Astros for roping me back into this thread. Haha.

Yup. Shocked everyone when the national guys picked it up late Aug. lots of contracts are about to expire - Baker, Click, TK, Blum. Then there were rumors of Sal & Sterns (both former Lunhow guys in Baltimore & Milwaukee) being potential confidantes.
Me liking every single pic and video from the parade
