It's crazy how Mike trout has become just a non factor in the MLB the last few seasons. He was pretty much sure fire too 3 MVP favorite every year. Now I almost forget about him by July

I always forget that Trout has only played in 3 playoff games in his 14 year career so far. I wonder who else would fall into the great player with minimal playoff games played category.

Pour one out for an Astros legend
Ted Williams played in 7, 8 if you count the 1948 tie breaker Game 155 for the AL Pennant.07ag said:dcaggie04 said:

Will the Astros start Scott against Texas coming up? We have one pitching spot not filled in yet
They have a 5 man with kikuchi, they might go to a 6 man, but that would likely mean blubaugh coming up
when Banks and Williams played...only 1 of 8...or 1 of 10 teams made the playoffs from each league
Trout (with Ohtani and good Rendon) couldn't even get to the playoffs in the COVID year when 8 of 15 teams made it

August will be an interesting month for the Astros
16 road games and only 12 home games
offensively...the 'stros rank in the top 5 in runs scored, HR's, and OPS (.776) at home
on the road however...
20th in runs scored
24th in HR's
15th in OPS (.699)

Damn that's awful, hope he makes a full and quick recovery
Much prayers to him and his family! May Max make a complete and full recovery!
It's a good weekend to win a series and take more than a 1 game lead in the West
.....and yet, last year they were road warriors. Go figureW said:

With Seattle playing a pissed off phillies team that just got swept by NY and the rangers playing the red sox, we need to capitalize with a series win or sweep!! Let's get it!
Mosdef. Long road trip starts next week.
Excited for Kikuchi's first start as an Astro tonight, and this team seems to thrive on Friday nights at home.

Yall remember when Wade Miley was like a cy young caliber pitcher for 2 months in an Astros uniform because that's the way baseball go…..
That's what we are about to get from Kikuchi! Book it, best trade of the deadline because baseball.

The dude that pitched almost as good as JV and Cole and then didn't even make the playoff roster because his last 3-4 starts he was rocked for 6+ runs? I member… his crash was pretty bad that year despite starting off really well.

Wade Miley was built for the pitch clock era... Dude pitched some of the quickest games ever
Roy O might have gotten pitch clock violations for throwing too early.
Who's ready for some Kuchi tonight?!
Tom Browning, too.
Things to consider.
Not saying those dudes aren't still better than the 98%. But their fall-offs are almost directly tied to K%, better Scouting Reports & dudes just throwing effortless smoke.

You mean juiced baseballs went away, Tommy from the H?
I feel like the colors are backwards but still interesting.
I'm shocked the Sox rank so well. Makes me want to see the Guardians in the postseason.

The Astros claimed right-hander Janson Junk off waivers from the Milwaukee Brewers. They optioned Junk to Triple-A Sugar Land.

In one week we got Kikuchi and Junk
hey the Junk and Kuchi connection can't be deniedEastCoastAgNc said:The Astros claimed right-hander Janson Junk off waivers from the Milwaukee Brewers. They optioned Junk to Triple-A Sugar Land.

That might be better than when we traded Bud Norris for Hader and Hoes and Tyler White for A. Scrubb.

Blasphemy. The Astros were the only team cheating.
