Wow...went to their thread and that Grapesoda dude is absolutely obsessed with the Astros and our thread. I mean like mentally ill type of obsessed. I hope she gets some help soon.


Too much pot makes you paranoid I guess...

Not venturing over there.....but I assume zero bragging about being defending WS champs is going on, right? It was them that mocked us for living in the past for that last year, right? And compared us to longhorn fans for doing so...lol

That's not encouraging but spring training results are usually meaningless


Pena learned how to selectively hit the ball and keep it in the field of play after being chased by that big ol dog when he had to retrieve a ball that went over the fence. We should all support him in his decision.

THE WINDOW IS CLOSING

4. Houston Astros
Yordan lvarez, DH/OF, 27
Kyle Tucker, OF, 27
Cristian Javier, RHP, 27
Bryan Abreu, RHP, 27
Jeremy Peña, SS, 26
Yainer Diaz, C, 25
Hunter Brown, RHP, 25
Jacob Melton, OF, 23

Here's where the above ages come into play. Look at the stars on this top eight, and the Astros have a strong argument for the top spot. Both lvarez and Tucker are coming off back-to-back All-Star seasons. lvarez is arguably the most feared hitter in the sport when healthy. Tucker posted an OPS over .800 each of the past five years and has been worth more than 5 bWAR in the past three. This year will also be a great chance for Daz to solidify his place as one of the top-hitting catchers in the sport after a breakout rookie campaign (.282/.308/.538) in a more limited role.

With all that said, half of the players listed here are 27 years old, and with a farm system that leaves a lot to be desired, the drop-off is steep once those players graduate from this list next season. While Houston has managed to mine some gems from the minors in recent years Chas McCormick, a 21st-round pick in 2017, has an argument to be a top-20 outfielder this year there doesn't appear to be much franchise-altering talent on the way at the upper levels. Keep an eye on Melton, the Astros' top prospect who mashed 22 home runs and stole 46 bases between high-A and Double-A last season.
man, who is this Ivarez guy, I had no idea!

Reminder that I got a ban and threatened with a year long ban for posting a JV tweet over there by accident. I feel like any post on purpose should get more by that logic

I think we need to accept the fact that mods will not let us post any TOFA or AOFA, which I think is completely asinine IMO. Obviously the Mods want to keep it PG as best they can but deleting ladies in swimsuits from the 40s?? Really? ugh I am not doing this again this year

Now they deleted my Village People picture. Does that mean they are anti-gay construction worker or anti-disco?

Astros related because Eric Anthony was working as a construction worker when he tried out for the Astros.

[KEEP ALL TRASH TALK OFF OF THIS THREAD OR GET BANNED. There is the warning to all Rangers posters and it is for the entire season. Make sure you are on the correct thread because we are not going to tolerate a bunch of "accident" posts. -Staff]
So that means Mr Gigem is banned for a year. Good to know that's being enforced.
