And a world series title right? Seeing those numbers it definitely doesn't make sense.

A case can be made that the Astros are actually worse than their record, with one of the worst offenses in the entire MLB.

the Astros are a classic .500 team
cannot get the hitting and pitching in-synch.
when they pitch...they don't hit
and when they hit...they don't pitch
I am certainly guilty of hyperbole, but you choose to cherry pick a comment about an 11-11 team sputtering out of the gate? I normally enjoy your posts, so stick to fun and informative stuff. You're better than this.

Me too. It's fascinating
I was talking about it today while golfing with some buddies and one brought up what if he's decided he wants to be in NY and his side says 'OK we wanna work this out and are willing to renegotiate'?
At that point he loses all leverage and the Mets have him by the balls.
And apparently Boras has been more substantive than when this all went down with SF. Was he not being substantive then and why he is he now? I think they know something is up.
Sorry I suggested the cold take bit. I did not realize people were going to be so yeasty about it.The Porkchop Express said:I really just tossed a couple of posts out from the one day of a 2,375 page thread.

As a third party I have to say I thought the comment was light hearted and meant no criticism. You said the Astros were playing like a classic .500 team and at the time it was true. You did not make any season predictions based on that. I hope we can keep this thread from turning south.Marvin said:The Porkchop Express said:I really just tossed a couple of posts out from the one day of a 2,375 page thread.

Well, I said much dumber stuff than that so at least put some effort into calling people out. If that's your shtick moving forward…

Since everyone was chill and not upset at all about old posts, I decided to find some more for the good of the thread. I think I've found the single coldest take from 2022.

I dont get what the problem is. Someone said I should find some funny posts so I tossed a couple of them out there from last may. Do you think I have a vendetta against you or I'm trying to ostracize you on texags? If you know anything about me, you know I don't want that for anyone. It was meant ad harmless fun. I'm going to keep writing my weekly reviews but definitely won't be quoting any posts again.

I think all of us have been here long enough to know a lot of us shoot our mouths off and say stupid **** during the games.
I think things get lost in translation over the interwebs.
Porkchop, you do you. Marvin, W, we love you guys. They're should be no issues.

There's some truly funny stuff on the Rangers thread right now.
1. Bauer is not a bad guy. He just got screwed by MLB.
2. Most Astros fans are bandwagon fans. Most on this thread can't even name one of our MiLB affiliates. They never met an Astros fan at A&M
3. They don't care about the Astros
And of course the time-honored our championships aren't legit bc we tanked to get them.

No need to bring that trash over here.
