We could win the World Series in November and ESPN will be like "Who is the best team in the NFC East? More at 11."
If the Astros win the World Series, I won't be sober enough to give 2 flying ****s about what's on ESPN at 11.
OK our offense is amazing, but what do we think about David Paulino? Dude is only 23...obviously there are command struggles still there, but his stuff is legit. That curve ball is good, and am I mistaken or was he flashing a pretty good change up today? Today's start makes me pretty optimistic about him.
Weird, Michael Feliz was credited with the win. Not often do you get that when you enter the game in the 9th with a 9 run lead. Also, fun quote from the MLB recap http://m.mlb.com/news/article/233541638/astros-sweep-twins-to-extend-win-streak-to-7/:
Sounds like David Robinson after Dream abused him in 95. "I thought we actually defended them pretty well"....
"On my gosh, bro, I was in shock. I tell him, 'I was in shock.' I've never seen a ball hit that hard before live in my life." -- Correa, on Springer's 473-foot homer It was not even where it landed. It was the way it sounded and came off the bat. It just skyrocketed off the bat. It was really impressive. I was in shock." "I knew I had hit it good and there's no point to stare at it," Springer said. "Just put your head down and go." Anti Harper
I saw an article earlier that said this start is the second best EVER in MLB history at the end of May. We are witnessing history folks!
Also wanted to point out that the Astros whooped that ass today with McCann, Beltran and Reddick, (all of the big bat off-season additions) resting on the bench. Depth is amazing!
So I just got home, I missed everything other than about 10 minutes on the radio 3 times. I know we kicked all kinds of ass.. One (or more, hopefully) of you guys who knows what the **** he's talking about give me the single paragraph clutchfans recap of the game: GO.
Astros kept hitting and scoring. Hinch was stupid for bringing in Sipp. Springer should bat cleanup. Beltran should be cut.McCann and Reddick were mistakes to sign. Altuve should bat 9th as he was the only one in the lineup to not drive in a run. Oh and Hinch sucks.
