    Getting those 2017 vibes with this team, they are having fun and it shows...also went to Gallery Furniture today and dropped 6K on a new (hopefully free) mattress. Needed a new one either way but this will make October a bit more interesting :D

    Yes i say this every time he pitches. It has brought good luck. Also, try to recognize obvious light hearted humor.

    He had a stretch like this in May/June also, that one started to have me excited.

    He's shown flashes, but I'm gonna need to see quite a bit more before I feel good again.

    How about Luhnow getting these guys out of nowhere for Fisher? Genius status improving even more.

    Well that was about as much fun as Blade catching the rooftop baby in blade trinity, who will also soon be called up by the Astros. Good times! No-No Hitter! Coochie coo baby. Coochi coo.

    Julia: Joe, when you get the ball, you know there's a no-hitter going. Is there anything extra with that? What did you feel as you got the ball for the first time in an Astros uniform.

    Joe Biagini: That's true. I was thinking they might just trade me again. They got what they needed. I knew earlier in the game and then kinda forgot so I was gonna say I didn't feel any pressure because I'm all you know cool about not feeling pressure but actually didn't realize it until after I came out again.

    Two things. One, it's annoying I have to do all these postgame interviews when the team wins so much. I gotta go do my stuff in there. And also, I never thought I'd be cold in Houston until that. What a way to be introduced to a new team. Nobody was joking around the league about saying this is the place to be. Obviously fun to be a part of something cool today. Hope we can have a few more of them maybe.

    JM: Thank you guys so much. Congratulations. Go celebrate with your teammates.

    JB: Congratulations on the great interview.

    "I get the dilemma but my responsibility is to take care of him, our team, our pursuit to win the division. I know his history, I know he's battled to get himself back on the field. It was a no-brainer for me."

    "I think he always looks at it. We all know his history. It's a little tender every time he pitches. I don't know him well enough to know whether on a scale of 1-10 where that was in terms of discomfort or tenderness. He was pretty happy at the end, gave me a big hug & was going to the field to get interviewed."

    "I want to credit Aaron Sanchez more than I want to credit the magic dust we sometimes sprinkle on these guys."

    I don't think you can have more polar opposite personalities than Greinke and Biagini.
