Harper didn't mean to do that. Way too bang-bang to formulate any sort of intent. The throw short l-hopped the catcher so the catcher didn't have the ability to position himself well for the tag.

Remember the bang bang play that Jake was in? Didn't stop MLB from calling him out either.

Walker should have crushed the cement mixer on strike one. Hanging slider. Then he swings at a strike two out of the zone.

Harper put his forearm right on the catchers jaw on the replay


He didn't do anything malicious. He had nowhere to go when Moreno moved in front of him. He just balled up trying not to kill Moreno...same as when Jake had his huge collision a few years back.

Moreno stays in...wow!
Jake was suspended for 5 games I believe

This is an interesting one. Y'all are gunna hate my answer but… Cole. A lot of of the pitchers from even 15-30 years ago aren't as nasty as the current ones. I'd take him over a lot of HOFers.

If it's position player, then how about Correa. He can't move like Pena but his defense is still very good. That arm is a weapon and you trust his bat more.

2019 Cole was my other option. But I thought lefty would be awesome to face Seager, Carter and Lowe

It was more thinking about as they are now. If we can time travel then I agree. You get the nasty guy from 2019 and same with Correa. I want him before his bamboo ankle started to give.

1986 Mike Scott was unhittable at the end.

1979 JRR or early 1980 JRR before the stroke.

Unpossible. None of us on this thread were Astros fans before 2017.

A few months ago anyone with an NIL tag had it converted to an Aggies United tag. I think Billy partnered with someone to leverage his Stacked program but it really wasn't explained very well.

1994 Bagwell. Without the broken hand and strike he would have had a real shot at Hack Wilson's RBI record.

I was at Game 6 in 1986. Skipped class at A&M and drove down for it. Loved me some Billy Hatcher.

Side note, I've never been to a playoff or bowl game of any sort since. Won't do it.

He may get suspended for putting hands on the umpire. Probably not though…


Don't kid yourself. Manfred will probably give him a spot bonus in the form of a bj. No suspension will ever come to Garcia. Abreu on the other hand will get a 3 game suspension. Because the MLB hates the Astros


Called it. Only off by one game. My only question is, will Manfred be blowing Garcia before the conclusion of the postseason or after?

The amount of hate the Astros continue to receive from the MLB is disgraceful. Open the ******* Yankees letter, you spineless ****s.

Garcia is charged with NOTHING, despite the fact that he grabbed Maldy and two umpires, escalated the entire situation which COULD have led to physical altercations, and then ran around again and charged at Maldy as if he was going to throw down. It's like saying the guy at the bar who pushed a bunch of people leading to a bar fight after getting beer spilled on him by accident isn't at fault.

Can't wait until Manfred has to hand us another title while his disingenuous snake ass gets booed relentlessly by our fans.

You know, this raises a good question. If the '94 season had played out and the Astros went to post season (and he didn't break his hand) would he have broken through and maybe never have had that playoff monkey on his back? He was such a wrecking machine that year.

As Bregman would say, we'll never know.

They played the Expos on opening day that year and Bagwell hit a line drive into the loge that was the hardest hit ball I have ever seen in person. It seemed like it was still rising when it went into the stands.

That 1994 season projected to 216 hits, 57 HR, 171 RBI and 153 runs. That would have been the single greatest combo season ever. Maybe the single greatest offensive season ever. What could have been. . .

His OPS that year was 1.200

And lest we forget, that was in the Dome.

Schwarber is up to 20 career postseason homers? Did teams forget that he likes to strike out?
