I really don't know how y'all can follow and support jomboy. Not because of the trash can stuff. But because of the pure slander against Altuve with his completely made up buzzer story.

Because it's been 4 years, he was obviously wrong, and I think he's entertaining. He's actually good for baseball with this breakdowns.

The jomboy stuff was stupid and happened back when he was just a youtube Yankee fanboy doing lip read videos looing for clicks.

He's now built quite the company and has branched way past just Yankee knob slobbin. His Talking Baseball is a pretty good podcast. Their interviews with Boone are phenomenal.

Yes they put out some Yankee specific content but their overall MLB talk and analysis is great and he gives the Astros lots of props. I enjoy 90% of their content.

Not Astros related -- but WOW! What a throw here.

Can’t stop watching this @j_chisholm3 throw from CF.

Not sure people understand how great this is. The spin. The throw on a line to to get Elly. Perfection 👏

He beat the throw and looked like he came off the bag with his left hand and tried to grab it with his right. De La Cruz was absolutely flying. And that throw was a laser.

Hey, Dusty tried

How about a repeat performance today?

Dusty Baker said McCormick was scratched because of a bruised knee from diving for Adley Rutschman’s first-inning triple last night. He said McCormick is “day to day.”

I doubt it's serious, he played the whole game after that and still did really well.

Gdit that team was so freaking good

I still cannot comprehend how we lost 4 at home in the ws

José Abreu’s lower back is “acting up,” Baker said. He said Abreu brought it to the training staff’s attention last night and will be evaluated when the Astros are back home.

My favorite part of this video is watching the expressions of the guys in the seats to Yordan's left on the 2nd and 3rd homer. It's comedy gold.

We definitely need to be careful with a back issue. Gotta protect the big guy. A stint on the IL with a deliberate rehab (think Brantley) may be a wise consideration.

now do Maldonado!

Remember all those best 1-2 punch in baseball lists preseason? I think we got it.

The cream of the crop.

Honestly the best thing that can happen for the Astros is for Abreu to get healthy and snap out of his year long funk. I'll probably get flamed for this.. but I think the odds of Abreu figuring it out and becoming league average are higher than Jon Singleton producing at a league average level.

Really pulling for Jon though.. but the best case would Abreu to somehow figure his **** out.

This bit from Porkchop's post really sums up the Astros for me the last 4-5 years:

"And just like that, you realize that these mother ****ers are a whole different animal, and for them this is just another series."

This year, the team we saw last night and the night before haven't been able to play together this year. Dusty messing around with Yordan 5th only allowed us to see the team 2 out of 4 games in New York.

Going on the road against the team leading the AL, taking the series in dominating fashion, those mother****ers have returned.

You may have forgotten who the Astros are, but they have returned and don't give a *****
