Yanier has been quite bad throwing to 2nd today.

Is the game on the radio? On the internet. I just turned 50 guys, I'm going to be asking you all a lot of dumb questions for the rest of time.

José Urquidy said he discovered this offseason that he was tipping some of his pitches by how he moved/squeezed his glove in his delivery. He worked this winter to solve that in addition to strengthening his lat/shoulder area where he got hurt last season.

Ford and Sparky were saying his fast ball looked really good. Sounded like he was throwing harder

---

His fastball could be Javier like, but it's never played like that. Similar vertical movement "rises" his Jose's has more glove side movement vs Javier's arm side. And now I'm looking at the #s and most of the best high spin fastballs break like Javier's. (Nestor, Bryce Miller, Cease, Strider).

He's working on some mechanical things from what I've been told. The struggles aren't necessarily a surprise. It'll take a handful of outings to get things straightened out. That's what spring is for.

Goes back to don't put a lot of stock in ST results.

Pitchers are usually working on things, making tweaks, experimenting with different things, etc.

Exactly. New pitches as well. Lots of experimenting going on.

José Urquidy said that he knew/thought Christian Vázquez and Carlos Correa had picked up on it by the time the playoffs rolled around, so he manipulated the pitch clock as much as possible in the ALDS to throw them (and the Twins) off during Game 4.

I know the first half was already posted, but this is interesting gamesmanship on his part

Byington's big day against tu.
Altuve's clinching homer off Chapman.
18 innings of anxiety in Seattle.

Several others with Correa and Alvarez.

Astros
- 2022: World Series GAme 6... still can't believe I was there.
- 1999: Last regular season game in the Astrodome (and last game of the season). Astros beat the Dodgers to win the Division.

Non Astros
- 1999: Bonfire game
- 1999: Super Regional Game 3 vs. Clemson. 2 solo bombs in the top of he 9th by Scarborough and Truitt to go up by one run. Closed out the bottom of the 9th to win 5-4, and go to the CWS.
- 2018: LSU 7OT game.
- 2021: Alabama beatdown.
- 90's: All of the sip beatdowns.

Damn, '99 was some year...

**Edited to add Altuve's 3 HR game in Arlington last year. That was fun.

I was at the Astros/Dodgers game in 1989. Went 22 innings and didn't end until almost 3am. Fernando didn't pitch but he did play 1b. It was, and still may be, the longest game in NL history. Astros won and then won the next day, also in extra innings. The ushers had the remaining fans move to the lower section during the game so they could start cleaning the Dome up for the Sunday game.

I was there Astros
Biggio's 3,000 hit game
Framber no hitter
Astros first Enron Field win (Doc Gooden's only Astros start)

I was there other:
Bonfire game
Red white and blue out original
Matt Blank Aggie No Hitter
Daylan Holt Aggie single season record setting HR (at risk this season)

I was there for the 1981 playoff game vs LA. Nolan threw a complete game 2 hitter and we won 3-1 in the 9th

I was there in 1984 when Dickie Thon went from budding superstar to destroyed. Most sickening sound I have ever heard.

I was there for the day Big John broke the sips.

I don't attend very much live sports. Can't think of a single meaningful Astros game I've attended. But I vividly remember watching the Chris Burke walk off game in my dorm freshman year.

Most notable sporting events attended
-RWB game
-'02 Oklahoma
-the beat down of Baylor

I dont attend live events particularly often either but i was at the game when Larry Dierker had the seizure in the dugout. We had no clue what was going on from our seats.

He is, generally

I was there. I was there the day the strength of men failed.

With Alex Bregman in a contract year, this is a massive minor-league season for Will Wagner and Zach Dezenzo, the two most logical internal candidates to backfill third base if Bregman goes elsewhere - https://t.co/utYItgRQUW

I sure wish they would go back to playing in Kissimmee, I remember going to Disney World for Spring Break when I was a kid and we would alternate being going to the parks and going to spring training games. Jupiter is beautiful and has great golf but it's about a 5 hour round trip from Orlando

Astros:
2022 WS Game 6
2019 WS Game 7
2019 ALCS Game 6
2017 WS Game 4 (aka the only one we lost)
2017 ALCS Game 2 (JV bends Yanks over a table game)
2005 WS Game 3 (first ever home WS game)
2005 NLCS Game 5 (Brad Lidge can still eat a d)
2005 NLDS Game 4 (Burke walkoff)
2000 Opening Day (first game at MMP
1999 NLDS Game 3 (**** busted wrist Brian Jordan)
1998 NLDS Game 1 (**** Kevin Brown)
1998 NLDS Game 2 (**** Jim Leyritz)
