98 Randy Johnson coming out of the pen tomorrow

Our biggest weaknesses right now are SS and C.

So I'm going with Adam Everett and Tony Eusebio.

He has said he was intentionally trying to throw the pitch up and in. That's part of a logical pitch sequence. He had just walked a guy unintentionally, so why is it hard to believe an attempted pitch up and in got away from him about a foot away to the arm side? When someone is throwing at a hitter, it's usually right behind the front shoulder, so that they back into the pitch. Total BS on the suspension. Manfred is an arrogant ass who covered for the blueblood franchises by burying the Astros. Screw him.


Well 4 of the 5 pitches were in the k zone on that walk. So I don't think this is a good argument.

Edit: 3 of the 5. Not 4, but yeah that AB was balogna.

I'm reading it as the argument for hitting him on purpose would be that the Astros were giving up the game which is something they would never do. So no way it was on purpose. Anyone with even minimal critical thinking skills knows that it is incredibly not likely it was done intentionally.
Which rules out Manfred and most of MLB leadership.

I won't post her picture because she's asked me not to in public forums.

I will say this tho, my entire life I was an ass man until I met her, and she converted me to a tits guy

Exactly! They are called RULES for a reason! You don't just get to say "I know the rules, but I am not going to follow them". There are consequences for that kind of thing. If we lose tonight, it is all on your shoulders for this flagrant flouting of common decency…and the RULES!

Manfred and those umps full of ####. Only morons like those on their board who don't know jacksh*t about baseball would possibly think otherwise. Stopped by there just to check it out. Nothing but bleeding gashes and incoherent reasoning. I'd be surprised if any of them really understand how the game is played. #### the rangers, #### their fans, and #### the metroplex.

Back when it was the Red Sox that were accused, Passan didn't mind cheating. He wrote an entire article arguing it's as much a part of the game as apple pie and Cracker Jack. Certainly nothing to get your panties in a wad over. Screw that guy.

But then Eusebio would just be on the bench. Was McCann not a better offensive catcher than Eusebio?

2 pitches that at bat he missed pretty badly, which is uncharacteristic of him but two of the balls were strikes, which yet again, goes to show the inherit bias the umpires and MLB have against us. So we just need to win by 10 and F*** THEM ALL!!!!

She needs to recognize how proud you are of her and understand the karmic value of letting you post them here.

The argument that hitting Garcia was intentional as uf the Astros were giving up the game/throwing in the towel would require pure baseball stupidity by the Astros. In addition to the obvious of not adding a 2nd baserunner to the bases with nobody out with only one the top of the 9th to comeback, one would have to believe the Astros put in Abreu, their top non-closing relief pitcher, into a game they were quitting on, to hit Garcia. All of it is absurd.
The umpires made the wrong call to toss Abreu from the game to de-escalate the situation without considering the broader impact.

Hell yeah, brother! Big Tony E with nearly .400 postseason batting average. 3rd longest hitting streak in Astros history.

Was listening to MLB Radio pregame a bit ago and they did an interview with the MLB commissioners office. The commissioners office is 100% positive it was intentional and said there was no doubt amongst the 6 umps on the field and he was so proud of those umps.

The interviewer was just arguing with him saying no way could it have been intentional and laid out every argument, but they are hard headed and stubborn and ended it as "agree to disagree". No way they are changing it on appeal.

They did say there is talk the MLBPA and MLB are negotiating to make it a 1 game suspension if and only if the suspension happens for tonight's game.

The same group of umpires that have been responsible for some of the worst games behind the plate during these playoffs? Probably not the best group to rely on or laud for their decision-making.

Whole family went to the zoo today. In 2-1/2 hours, we saw 43 Altuve jerseys.

Exactly. What would be the point? Mike Piazza, Johnny Bench, Ivan Rodriguez, and Yogi Berra in their respective primes would all sit behind Maldy anyway.

Funniest thing is that he went on this tangent about how they spend so much time and effort in putting together the absolute best crews for the playoffs. What a load of crap

This whole ordeal has to really solidify the us against the world mentality the Stros have. They just keep helping us avoid any semblance of complacency

The media hates it that Altuve keeps doing what he does… they can't help there self from saying something about him but it always includes a jab at him

https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/38711912/mlb-playoffs-2023-astros-jose-altuve-alcs-world-series-legacy
That's one of the worst articles I've ever read. The writer keeps saying "even though he was probably innocent, it doesn't matter."

My question to the national media continues to be: If everyone everywhere hates the Astros, why do they keep getting so many All-Star votes?
