    Yeah that was funny. Love watching this team really loving what they do and having so much fun doing it.

    So different from what we saw with the Bagwell/Biggio era.

    Alvarez passed the entire team in batting average with one swing, including white.

    Okay.. I'm impressed.

    That looked like he reached out and lined it to the right fielder.... it ends up in the bleachers.

    Alvarez is the first Astro ever to hit home runs in his first two games!

    I totally agree with Lance and as an Astros fan I can say an automated strike zone will help this team without a doubt.

    I don’t care what the haters say, can we please get Bagwell, Berkman and Blum together for one of these games?

    Not even with Berkman on the team?
    Miss the NL Central. I personally hated the Cubs way more than the Cards.

    I am enjoying his building indignation over the strike zone.

    Same. I can see the game w my eyes, I don’t need someone to spoon feed me intel all the time. Hearing old(ish) stories and putting the umps on blast from an Astros all timer is fun af. Would I want to hear it every game? Probably not. But every once in awhile?? F*** yes.

    Yordan is awesome. So much power, he golfed that one.

    Astros aren't leaving any of the big time players in Round Rock for us to watch lol. But love seeing them contribute on the big stage.

    I wish I could remember the post/thread where I told another poster Alvarez is special.

    If it's within 6 inches it's a strike. Consistent zone.
