    Another great night. Astros win and four teams in front of us lost (O's, Tigers, M's, Royals). Go for the kill tomorrow!

    I haven't really known what that means since 1995.

    But yes, maybe I have.

    Argubly the greatest HipHop entertainer had a hit 10 years after 1995 with the same name, so fail rank attempt by you.

    But yeah, glad you've stopped frontin on Jake.

    Just like I already told you..... glad you stopped posting chicken s*** responses regarding Jake's defensive skills.

    I'm glad a 50-year-old man has let go of whatever was clouding his judgment on such a basic issue.

    Glad you've grown in the last 90 days.

    His ignorance should cause him great pain. The music debunks his notion of "fronting" being outdated since the last Rockets championship.

    I was just acknowledging the fact the jackass finally accepts Marisnick as a great defender. He refused to do so earlier this year.

    Jake's defense is great. Bat not so much. If fronting doesn't mean lending someone cash with the promise to repay at a later date or being the lead singer of a rock n roll band then you've lost me. 41 is kind of old I guess.

    So....let's do this Astros. Let's make this a September to remember!!!

    getting Reed, Gomez, Rasmus out of the everyday lineup has helped our offense a ton

    Astros actually have three plus average guys in the lineup.

    Bregman,Altuve,Gurriel

    Should be fun down the stretch.

    Yeah, that's another meaning... and not just money can be fronted.

    Lead singer of a band is new to me.


    Jake's defense isn't new.... although it took a jackass 100 days.

    Bregman has gotten his OPS+ up to league average. Pretty remarkable given his start.

    I'm hoping that a rested Rasums will round back into his late-2015 form. His defense is infinitely better in LF than Oscar & Marwin, and neither of their bats are good enough to hold Rasmus out, IMO, unless Rasmus continues his sub-.100 hitting.

    With the emergence of Bregman, the (temporary?) resurgence of Gattis, and the signing of Yuli, Rasmus really shouldn't have much pressure on him. Slot him @ #6 or #7.
