How long until machete gets booed every AB?


We don't do that.
Always an opportunity to start new traditions….

Well at least we went down with our heavy hitters of Julks, Meyers, Dubon, and Maldy hitting in the 9th.

FIFY
Or boo every time Dusty walks his line up card out knowing that those two black holes are on it.
I dunno. Dubon actually plays defense instead of living off a reputation from 3 years ago…..

Alright, boys, get it all out, now. Show me where Dusty"s lineup card touched you.

to be fair to the bottom of the order...

7-8-9 hitters combined for 3 hits & 1 walk

generally speaking...we'll take that each night

Wish Dusty had rode off into the sunset with the World Series and Espada was the manager

I have the ultimate spin for this season.

Slow starts = World Series

Look at the 21 and 22 Astros but also the 22 Phillies, 21 Braves, & the 19 Nats of memory serves.


And didn't all three of those NL teams can their manager fairly early for the rancid start they had?

I'm not going to panic 6 games into the season, but we are still plagued with the poor bats in the bottom 3rd of the lineup and right now our bull pen doesn't look magical like last year

We could start 15-30 and Crane/Brown wouldn't fire Dusty. Not after the feel good story of last season.

I have a question… I'm currently on my way to Houston from Dallas, and I'm going to the game this afternoon. Does anyone know where I might find Crawford Bock in the gold World Series cans? I can get the regular cans in DFW, but not the World Series cans. My buddy was in a HEB in Spring yesterday, but they didn't have any. I'm hoping they're not sold out everywhere. Any help is appreciated. TIA

They had them at HEB in the Woodlands (on Kuyk) last week. It's a good 10 min out of the way if you're coming down 45.

Was looking at the menu of concessions at Truist Park for my visit in a couple of weeks and found this new gem for 2023.

It reads like something from the SNL skit "Taco Town"

Four grilled all-beef patties topped with golden hash brown potato, hickory smoked bacon, cheese and sunny side-up fried egg. Served on a fresh buttermilk Belgian waffle with maple syrup.

Hope we can salvage the home stand today. But I'm kinda ready for this team to get on the road and play. Forget the gold this and gold that, banners, rings and celebrations, and just play baseball and get this 2023 campaign underway. Maybe a change in scenery will wake up the bats and maybe get our pitching on track.

I live in the Mid-Atlantic region so yeah Kroger wouldn't have it anyway lol
No matter what!
Epstein didn't do, you know, the thing...
I'm the rare Astros/Cowboys/Spurs fan. We do exist

Simple lineup changes will fix this - too many dead spots. Sure Dubon got a hit in the 9th - only his 3rd and he only has one walk. But crucial misplayed ball at 2nd that should've been fairly routine and set up a big inning for Detroit. He is not helping this team.
Play Chas more regularly. Let's see Hensley. When giving people a day off, let them still be able to pinch hit. Use Diaz.

All the HEB's along 249 had them as recently as last weekend. I need to go back... somehow drank all I bought.

Hindsight being what it is but I'm kinda wishing we would've resigned Aledmys.

He's rocking a .396 OPS tho.

I think we all need to stop overreacting to a 5 game sample size.

It's always weird that we hear Yordan is not a good fielder or he's better as a DH. To me he's proven he's a good enough fielder to be the every day LF.
