What did Yordan just say to Jose Ramirez here?

Is Jeter not getting drafted by Houston the biggest "What if?" in Astros' history?
Also I hope he's not jinxing us.
*Edit: Greinke getting pulled by Hinch in Game 7 is probably tops but besides that.

Missed opportunity to have John Travolta looking for his drink on the beach

The biggest what if in Astros history is what if JR didn't have a stroke. Hands down. He was a sure fire hall of Famer. It altered the course of the franchise for 15 years.
Abreu is doing a good job as the cleanup hitter

You smell that fart?
Oh yeah. Houston likely wins the title in '80 with JR. RIP.chlavinka said:

You and Corey Julks ought to talk about hat and helmet sizes.
My guess on the trade front is we end up with someone from the NL central. - Jordan Montgomery from the cardinals or Kyle Hendricks from the cubs. Honestly I could see flaherty or smly as targets as well even though both have been a mess this year.
The Astros have to make multiple moves and they all don't need to be splashes. We need a backend of the rotation guy or two that can simply eat innings and not give up a 7 spot doing so.

Wearing your hat that really makes you taller bro

IMO the bigger what if is just if Greinke didn't come out for the 7th at all and Cole started the inning.
Greinke 6 shutout, Cole gets the 7-8th, Osuna to close it out
Also a painful "what if" … does that 2015 team pull off a Nationals type Cinderella run if we don't blow the Royals series?
Austin Deming 3B Brigham Young 5th Yr Sr. 10th Round
He also hit 14 jacks and batted over .400 in only 55 games. Pretty absurd, even if it was MAC baseball.texasaggie2015 said:He had 49 steals last year?!jkag89 said:

Here are some "what ifs" that we were on the GOOD side of
- what if Altuve had just gone home from the tryout like they told him to
- what if Aiken had signed in 2014, and we didn't have the draft pick to get Bregman
- what if the Dodgers realized what they had in Yordan
- what if last year's lock out ended up canceling the 2022 season like some thought it would
It's easy to find what ifs that did not go away, but we have had a few that really did go our way

What if the Indians didn't want Straw.
What if the trade for Bryce Harper gets approved and he joins us in 2018?
We all know it's a crapshoot but it's not far fetched to say it was reasonable to think we could've gone back to back to back champs in 17-19.

What if we never traded Josh Hader to Milwaukee?

Exactly.
...and AJ Hinch is still our manager instead of...well, you know.
Or if we had a manager who wasn't stupid enough to play Straw every day…..
One other thing on Jeron Williams, he hit one of his HRs off Joe Whitman, who went 69th overall to the Giants. Only one game but good to see he can do it against an elite pitching prospect.
I'll give you a what if it mess with your mind.Farmer1906 said:Jackal99 said:

If we don't have Fiers in 2017 do we get through July?

Yes, but just because of the rest of the division sucked. We end up finishing 21 games ahead of LAA.
if enough high-upside, tough-to-sign types are available, it’s a shrewd strategy — there’s a “free” bonus of up to $125K for each pick in the last 10 rounds that doesn’t count against the overall bonus pool, so the money that dana’s ostensibly saved can be maximized.

Basically we're going to steal some kids from returning for their SR year and/or making it to campus at the last second with 125Ks.
HR Derby, I'm pulling for future Astro Luis Robert
Hopefully not Jack Moss

Pull for him to lose in the first round with 2 homers to not inflate the price anymore!
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.
