Everyone think the Astros weren't "punished" for the cheating stuff, but we are now seeing the effects of lost draft picks and getting rid of Hinch and Luhnow.

At least we squeezed in another championship.

Framber needs to come back healthy first

Very disappointing. I was counting on Astros baseball to get me through the summer so I wouldn't have to watch all of the political crap.

Now what am I going to do?

Leadoff double and runner not advanced one base. Never change Astros, never change.

Add JV to that list. He will be appealing with the muts paying half his salary.

This team blows. This is for all the geniuses that couldn't wait to get rid of Dusty.

This team would be 4-9 with Dusty too. Except Dusty would still be batting Abreu 5th and Tucker 6th

I'm a fan of Joey Swords but he's gotta be starting to feel a little
Bit of a pucker, no?

LOL. We'd have the same or worse record with Dusty here.

It's going to be interesting to compare today's roster with the roster on August 1st.

MLBPA would put a contract on his head if he didn't collect 100% of that turd contract. And they wonder why teams aren't handing out mega deals like Halloween candy anymore…..

Dubon walks

Let's go Jon. Give us one more bat flip before the end.

My biggest concern besides the lack of clutch hitting is a lot of our hope is hinging on guys returning from long term injury and returning to form as if nothing happened.

I read on Texags that 2024 is our A&M's year in football, so enjoy all those wins!

Tuck threw his bat about as far as he hit the ball.
