I've not watched the Stros much this year... no longer have cable and had quit watching pretty much all ball sports before that even, but have listened to them on KTRH a bit... Seems that Tucker, Altuve and the other new kid SS (Pena, I think) could be the next big sub team like Bagwell/Biggio... NO?

I don't think anything is wrong with Tucker other than he knows his value on the open market.

Love beating the Yankees......

Not sure what Dusty is thinking bringing in Alverez with first base open....anyone could see that intentional walk coming a mile away....set up the DP too.....

Worked out with a well placed infield single

55 innings played against the Yankees and we have led in 53 of them !!!!

Johnny Dangerr · 07-21-2022, 04:25 PM

9th inning win...

Pena put them in a bind by not playing two ground balls correctly in the top half. But it all worked out and the Astros continue to own the yanks.

Awesome to sweep the pretty boys, but man, Pena boots a lot of balls.

I also thought Dusty left Bielak in too long. He was throwing meat and a blind man could see Judge's 3-run dong coming from a mile away.

Bayouboy · 07-22-2022, 05:51 AM

Nice wins. Even with Pena and Baker being liabilities at times.

I mean it wasn’t that bad of a plan. Bielack was an extra man up due to the double header. Stros play 18 games in 17 days. Pretty smart to get as much out of Bielack as possible. If it wasn’t a 5 run lead as well you would have seen him pulled earlier.

Yankees pitched to Yordan in the second game with first open and he hit a two run double off the wall.

Yes true. I was at the second game, could not believe they didn’t walk him with first open and one out. After he just hit a bomb in the first lol

The spankees are looking in their rearview mirror. After thinking they have absolutely dominated in the first "half", their kryptonite is only 1.5 games back this morning. Love it.

I’m thinking maybe more like a side view mirror though. You know, one that says “Objects in mirror are closer than they appear”.

I like the trade too. Will he split time in the outfield and 1B like he's done his entire career, or primarily outfield with the Astros? I like Yuli at 1B but Mancini does add some flexibility in the lineup.

charrell71 · 08-01-2022, 05:55 PM

Wondering how Christian Vasquez is going to fit in in the clubhouse. Pretty vocal about the 2017 team.

Looks like Mancini was an excellent pick up.

Too much platooning, players not as familiar with each other? Seems to be more turnover than usual in the outfield this year.

Bayouboy · 08-08-2022, 03:29 PM

Dusty and his constant rotating players is hampering the team. Pick a guy and stick with him. Especially in center field. McCormick comes to mind.

Dusty and his constant mistakes handling the pitching staff is killing this team. I hope the Rangers hire him after this season is over.

As long as Dusty is the mgr this team will continue to fall short at the finish line.

They have the talent to win it all. But, not the mgr. His history proves that.

they might be able to win in spite of Dusty......

His decisions are head scratching at times...and frustrating

rtp · 08-16-2022, 07:56 AM

I’m hoping Dusty is like Barry Switzer and gets his ring in spite of himself. He is absolutely garbage as a manager.

So you get the tying runs on base with two outs in the ninth but let Dubon hit with McCormick on the bench? Brilliant!!!!!

The sox sure seemed to have our number, but yesterday the Stros had enough

texasdeerhunter · 08-18-2022, 10:55 AM

I still can’t figure out why Dubon is getting starts over Chas and Meyers. And Mancini should be in the lineup 4-5 days per week, either in the outfield or at 1st. Very frustrated with Baker

gingib · 08-18-2022, 11:30 AM

Anyone who boosts he got all the shots, pokes, "vaccines", wear gloves and masks is a clown!

Much less who gets covid then saying all that minimized his side effects! MORON

Redfeathers · 08-18-2022, 04:44 PM

Astros scored two touchdowns and a field goal

Redfeathers · 08-18-2022, 05:03 PM

Scratch that, scored 3 touchdowns
