I pregame there for every Astros game I go to

I did every now and then when it was across the street but this is like the memorial woodrows. Almost as big it feels.

Crane looks like he's aged 10 years

Depending on what picture your comparing him too there is a good chance he may have
Remember when we thought this time last year that Hensley was the next guy to be great… yikes
I wish SCHN could put the name of the player at bat. They can put the pitcher's name. Why can't they put who is batting? Especially when we've got a few guys playing idk who they are by looking at their stance.
Nothing like February baseball
Looking forward to this season, now that the dust has settled

Crane interview
We had a spot at the back of the bullpen, so we looked for the best guy out there and found Hader
Lol, then spent nine figures

The hats are so bad
Great Scott!
Coleman on the mound

Just saw some of the new jerseys at academy… hot garbage
I mean, I have to imagine the sales of jerseys dropping precipitously, right? When do the powers that be correct the mistake?
I'd be shocked if it's not fixed before the season starts. No way Nike or mlb are just gonna continue with this as status quo with the publicity they're getting.
Ive found exactly 1 person who is a fan of the new uniforms…specifically the pants.htxag09 said:AgSportsFan89 said:tjack16 said:

She just so happens to be married to a player working to make it with a major league club.
I'd imagine many other women who were already fans of tight baseball pants will like them even more now

Two shades of orange makes absolutely no sense to me.
So glad I have a plethora of jerseys including the Mitchell and ness '94 biggio and tequila sunrise Nolan Ryan

Yep. I'd be fine if they were just our regular orange. But the light bright orange with a dark orange brim is just odd
Personally I'm also not a fan of the circle star spring training logo. But whoever put two shades of orange together should be fired
Am I watching a HS defense right now?
It's tough watching the late innings of these games. Players running into each other, booting balls, missing pop flies.
Do we post celebratory boobs now or wait until the regular season?
Please say now

"See kids, this is what happens when you don't communicate and call it. You miss the ball and someone could get hurt."
Great teaching point for my kiddos, but cmon…fundamentals!
Yordan Alvarez won’t play in a Grapefruit League game until Tuesday, which Joe Espada said has been the plan all along. All of the everyday infielders will play tomorrow against the Cardinals in West Palm Beach. Kyle Tucker will DH.

Espada said Forrest Whitley's finger issue "doesn't look like it's something significant," but the Astros will know more tomorrow.

Late night Passan bomb, Bellinger off the board.
BREAKING: Centerfielder Cody Bellinger and the Chicago Cubs are in agreement on a three-year, $80 million contract, sources tell ESPN. Bellinger will receive opt-outs after each of the first two years of the deal. Bellinger, 28, returns to the Cubs after a prolonged free agency.

He got the Correa deal but less. I doubt he has a better year than he did last season. Maybe his batted ball data will improve.

The Rangers executives and owners whined all offseason about a Bally deal where they'd be getting less. They blamed not signing Monty on it. But per Bobby Nightengale it's 100 M instead of 111 M. That is a much smaller hit than what happened to Crane yet the Astros just signed Hader, extended Tuve, and are well into the luxury tax.
Bob costas going off on trump and his supporters. I'll be curious if this was have any impact between him and the players? He was always a little weasel but some of the things he were pretty disgusting.

Take it to F16
Seth Martinez, Parker Mushinski, Wander Suero and Bennett Sousa are on the schedule to follow starter Hunter Brown in West Palm Beach today.

Joe Espada said Forrest Whitley will not throw for a week, but the inflammation in his middle finger subsided this morning.
— Chandler Rome (@Chandler_Rome) February 25, 2024
Joe Espada said his plan right now is to bat Yordan Alvarez second. The ideal top four of his lineup is Jose Altuve, Alvarez, Alex Bregman and Kyle Tucker.
