It's that kinda stuff that makes the rest of the country think we ride horses to work everyday.

Exactly. It's like they asked someone from outside of Texas what the most stereotypically Texas things were that they could think of, and then they overdid it to circus levels of absurdity

Feel like it's been happening since I was a child. But I understand that there's nothing unique about Arlington to feature otherwise. That Houston has plenty of non-caricature stuff of its own to use is a good thing.

After seeing some of the Fox production stuff throughout the game I can certainly agree with this. Was thinking more of at the org level. The players riding the mechanical bull was bad lmao

How many of our players go on the paternity list in April 2025?

Over/under 2.5

We introduced an Astros baby to the world this week. I'm not sure I want to call her a rally baby though cause tjack's has done a pretty darn good job. We can hold her on the taxi squad for now.

I see no way the Orioles do this kind of deal with the way they hold on so closely to their prospects

So is the thinking that Tucker is back on friday? With verlander taking a few rehab starts?

I thought Tucker was designated as broken? Glad to hear to hear otherwise.

Tucker hasn't done anything on-field but play catch and hasn't started a rehab. I don't know when we'll see him again but there's no way it's Friday.

I wish this was the case.

I haven't seen anything on Tucker than 'He's coming along. Slower than he had hoped for but he's coming along'.

Verlander has just been throwing off the mound. Hasn't faced live batters from what I've seen.

Think August for Tucker.

I don't expect JV back anytime soon- probably closer to September. But I haven't been told that specifically, just connecting dots.

I don't expect Tucker or JV until August. And in JVs case I'm betting mid August. Hell you may see Garcia before you see JV.

I thought Garcia's rehab was paused.

Remember way back when we thought reinforcements were coming?

It is. And I still think you will see Garcia before JV. Which is crazy.

That would have been the plan regardless. Brown, Arrighetti and Blanco are going to start running out of gas soon.

You're welcome Yankees and RedSox fans. Appreciate the Astros have given you the ability to brag the AL is better than the NL.

Seems likely. If we'd have taken care of business against Arlington, they might be sellers. I'm hearing they have some hope and looking to buy now.

He's had a couple decent starts this year. Maybe we give him a look as a cheap option to fill some innings

All he does is walk everyone. Make him throw BP to Yanier and see if he can learn to take pitches.

Astros have an opportunity take matters into their own hands against Seattle this weekend. Hopefully it's a series win and a 1 game lead coming out of the series.

Not taking 2/3 from Arlington mattered.
