Holy crap, that's Springer's haircut? Am I the only one that flashedback to Mr. Burns saying "Dammit, Mattingly, I told you to shave those sideburns"?
Little do you know that your body has been waiting too. That's why the Astros make you feel good on the inside.
Now you know how your women feel: all good for a while, then it's all over before you're ready for it to end.
A Gattis WACK Carter Starter Springer Dinger Rasmus, Altuve and Marisnick hitting the lights out of the ball...lovin it!!
WTH? Did I just hear "El Son De La Negra" mariachi song play for the Padres? :grin: That was refreshing. Ain't gonna help them much.
Yep. It's weird though, the fast diving-type plays are most often easier than the routine ones. You don't have time to think, you just react. Mike Lamb used to infuriate me, watching him play 3rd. He could make a Caminiti-esque diving stop over the line on one play, and the next inning he'd flub a grounder that a HS kid would've made the play on.
Man, these fans are going after Valbuena. Didn't think I'd see fans all up in arms about flopping in baseball lol.
If yall are watching the Houston feed, they just did a great replay of what Springer's swing should look like every time. Beautiful. Hope all the extra work he's been putting in keeps paying off going forward.
I think he can benefit from focusing on making contact rather than swinging for the fences...he seemed to get those wild swings under control towards the end of (his) season and this year has been swinging pretty wildly again. Hopefully he's seeing the light and turning it around!!!! But this offense...WOW. I LOVE IT
