It came out a year ago today I'm pretty sure. I'm trying to plan some Summer trips to show off my 2016 Astros World Series ring!!! Where is the damn schedule ??
When they finalize it and publicize it I'd imagine it'll be on mlb.com Go to SF, Denver, LA, SD...**** I though we were still in the NL...Seattle, NY, Boston? Arlington in July is amazing.
Highly recommend SF and SEA. Absolutely incredible venues. Fenway is must-see. Wrigley was overrated in my opinion. I've never made it to Camden Yards, but that's next on my list. I've heard it's the best in baseball. Arlington was the worst sporting venue I've ever been to. Decent stadium, food is eh, but the fans are unbearably immature. I understand (and expected) animosity while wearing a Biggio jersey, but holy cow...that place sucked. Not a single fan showed a shrewd of southern hospitality, or even human decency, and I was quiet/kept to myself the entire time. I never bother opposing fans in HOU and rarely see other HOU fans badgering visiting fans, even if they are TEX. Sadly, I expected to be treated the same. What a terrible assumption to make, that DAL could be decent human beings.
Place I've been so far (I'm 28) : Astros Rangers Rockies Pirates Giants Dodgers Red Sox Yankees Royals I gotta hit the Cubs

Yeah but look at their first 27 - one playoff team and an overall 39-22 (64%) record (and counting) this year against those opponents. That's a very *favorable* start for them. If they go 17-10 (64%)... Granted, it's quickly 17-14 the morning of May 5 but.........
Unless things change drastically next year against the Rangers it's a pretty safe bet to assume they'll be at least 10 games under .500 going into the season. Let's see what they can do in the other 143 games. I'm kidding but damn it sure feels that way.
