Back tracking.

Not sure about the validity of the JV acquisition. Still could be legit. Idk. But, at the same time, he might not be necessary. Getting Urquidy will be just like acquiring a starter/innings eater. Maybe targeting another high leverage bullpen arm is the move. Gonna be fun!

currently arguing this so:

you have to allocate 10 championships/titles among your favorite teams/athletes for the next 5 years — how do you do it?

Anyone who believe this dork for one second anyways is out of their mind

He loves the attention. Again, he says he has friends on the team, but anyone who has friends on the team wouldn't tweet the way he tweets. Sometimes I think he's losing his mind.

Dana Brown on Jim Crane: “He’s allowing me to run the team and said, ‘Hey, this is your job. You get it done. Just keep me posted as to what’s going on.’ … He’s pretty much given me the steering wheel and said, ‘Hey, this is your gig, so get it done.'” - https://t.co/IAEGfXWIcg

It's really hard to imagine having such an opportunity as this. Kind of like deciding how you would spend a billion dollars.

I did the math. I've been a sports fan for 55 years,since I was 11. Fan of all three major sports, college and professional. Well, no longer pro football and basketball but was for a long time. In that time my teams have one a whopping total of five championships. An average of one every 11 years.

Two for the Rockets, way back when I cared about the NBA.

Two for the Astros, a pretty big deal for me.

And the 5th? The damn texas longhorns of 1969 when I was 13 of all things. My dad was a sip and turned me into a fan of theirs during my ignorant youth.

As a sports fan I guess I haven't had the best of luck.

Translation: Screw these losers. Bring me back home, Jim!

Translation: I wanted to sign a multi year deal with the Astros but didn't get it

This is the next best thing

He's texting Dana?

checking in with the Royals (29-74)...

who are only 1 game better than the A's (28-75) now...

for the rest of the season...Kansas City plays 19 (non-division) games vs. AL playoff contenders

6 vs. the Astros
7 vs. the Red Sox
3 vs. the Blue Jays
3 vs. the Yankees

KC is finished with the Rangers, Orioles, Rays, and Angels

potential scheduling advantage for the 'stros down the stretch

I would absolutely kick those tires once the trade deadline settles and you know where the 40 man stands. I'm assuming we will have some room by then.

He always was the best AAAA player. Really hope he can turn a corner this time.

Interesting when you read this MLB article on the most likely to be traded players they don't show any starting pitchers or relievers as potentially going to the Stros. I would think we want pitching help before we want anything else ?

Maybe we don't do anything this year ? I think we look for a pitcher

I'd also space them out for enjoyment purposes. So if it's the 2023-2024 to 2028-2029 season stretch I'd distribute them like this

Astros: 2023, 2024, 2027 (includes 3-peat)
Aggie Football: 2023, 2025, 2027
Aggie baseball: 2024, 2027
Aggie basketball: any
Texans: any
