33-39
7.0 games back of 3rd Wild Card spot
9.0 games back of Division lead




26-20 would get us to .500. Same record since the Mexico City series versus the Rockies.

Then hopefully finish strong the last 44 games, like maybe 28-16 to finish 87-75.

Any turnaround scenario at this point has to include sweeping the moribund White Sox this week, no?

Before I forget the fanbase hasn't quit yet, Saturday's game was packed, at least until Spaghetti started pitching

Great evening in Omaha! Thought Prager might pull it off, but a fantastic effort anyway.

Shout out to the #1 Astros fan for joining us in a celebratory Jell-O shot at Rocco's after the game.

I think he's talking about Jello shots. They're taking it way more seriously than anyone else.

No one will ever beat LSU's record from last year, it's pointless.

The whole thing seems off to me. It started a fun bar competition that raised a little money for food banks and morphed into this weird who can get the most rich donors to buy in bulk.

Yeah, it was more just the "say you did it" thing last night. When in Rome...

Good morning friends. Our Ags are one win away from playing for a natty so it's a good day.

- I'm told the JV scratch was purely precautionary and they just want him to feel 100% before his next start which will likely be later this week. Fingers crossed.

- Nothing on the trade front right now but I'm asking around this morning to see if there's anything new

- The promotions of Brice Matthews and Ethan Pecko should make you feel good about the future of the farm system under Dana Brown. This guy has a keen eye for talent.

We will see if Crane just makes him trade all those guys away for rentals.

Nasty sweeper and solid 2 seam. Giant lefty/righty split in his small sample. Cabbage & Singleton need to be in the lineup.

I was wondering about him this morning. He was crushing FCL pitching so I figured it was only a matter of time.

That Hooks team is really interesting.

We knew that when we hired him. I think everyone's concern is Crane right now and how he's trying to be the Astros equivalent of Jerruh Jones

Tough day for DFW. Mavs and Rangers getting blown out



I've been telling you guys since January that the Rangers would miss the playoffs.

When I do make the trip I know I'll definitely buy some… but after LSU bought 68,800 last year it's never going to be something we try to break the record for. Just a fun contest each year between those 8 schools.

Genie appears in front of you. Says he'll grant you one of the following two scenarios.

Door #1 - Aggies win the Wednesday with a 10-0 no-hitter, then win the the NC on back-to-back no-hitters over the weekend. Astros miss the playoffs and lose 90 games

or

Door #2 - Aggies fall short in the CWS, but the Astros rally to a 100-win season and sweep the ALDS, ALCS, and WS.

Door 2.

Door #2 because the future is bright with Schloss and I like their chances to win in the near future regardless of this year's outcome

I'm on the wrong thread for this, but #1 all day every day.

I'll take the guaranteed Aggie championship. I have seen the Astros win 2.
