Those of you wondering why some of us think Espada is the problem.. Bregman just jogged to first and would have been safe had he hustled. In a 1 run game in the 9th, one of your highest paid players is jogging to first. Either Espada doesn't hold the players accountable, or urgency and effort are not a tenant of his management style.


That was Bregman running…unfortunately

Espada gets his share of the blame for this loss

top of the 8th strategy was terrible

Jake is batting .217 --- he's doesn't get that critical 2-out at-bat


At that point what other option was there? Wasn't Dubon already on to PR for Singleton?

Things are not getting better. Dubin was a bit of a bright spot, I guess

I'm all in on the Aggies, will check back in after our CWS title. This team is no fun

Altuve or Singleton makes a play in the FIRST inning, we win. Incredible.


You're assuming Abreu-Pressly-Hader don't blow the lead late


Ok, you got me there.

Dubon should have been held back to pinch-hit

let Kessinger pinch-run

Story of the 2024 Astros

- lack of extra base hits
- horrible with RISP
- double digit left on base

And it's a lineup filled with 2 former MVPs, an MVP runner-up, 5 silver sluggers, WS MVP, and multiple time all stars

Ditto! 100% there if we are. That's my rule. My family was informed in 1999 and I'm sticking with it.

I still have yet to make the trip. With the baby due next week I wont be able to make it this year.

Had the trip booked in 2016 my senior year, thinking there was no way that team wouldn't make it…

I've got hotel reservations if we make the championship series (final 2).

Bregmans was lucky. That was as a DP if it didn't hit the pitchers glove.

After tonight, I'm actually encouraged.

Spaghetti looks good after the 1st. Dubin showed something. Press was strong.

Runners got on. We just didn't get the key hit.

It's coming!

I recommend it whenever you get the chance. Been with my son all 3 times and there's nothing like it. If we go this year, would be his first as an Aggie. It goes by so damn quickly, enjoy every moment you can.

And sweat talk your mom or mil about coming to stay for a days if we make it. No idea when the next opportunity will be, although it's certainly looking like Schloss makes this a more regular occurrence than in my first 35 years of fandom.

My problem is my brother and I are doing the Boston trip in early August and that was the one I was able to sweet talk her into. Probably can't get her to say yes to another one the first 3 months.

I'm thinking about just going next year in 2025 for a weekend regardless of if the Aggies make it

Yep...it's been a remarkable 7 year run. I want to use all the baseball mojo for an Aggie cws run this year. It will take A LOT of mojo to get the Astros back to respectable.

JV should demand Dubon is his personal 1B
