    I can't stand that D-bag. Please don't give him any run on here.

    You cannot, no way, no how, be putting Garcia in the pen.

    He has his moments. He's been giving the Astros their props and pretty much saying the Astros are the Red Sox daddy.

    The Breggy Dying Quail would be perfectly fine for quail jerky.

    A week ago he was trashing the Astros, talking about the cheating scandal, trashing the players, etc.

    It's like dude give me a ****ing breaking, you're a Red Sox fan.

    To me it's pretty simple, there's been a lot of sketchy stuff going on in baseball the past few years, which isn't really that much different than any other random decade of baseball that you could pick out. The only one who truly deserves an asterisk WS is the Dodgers because of the 60 game season. At least a side-eye WS.

    He becomes an Astros fan when they play (beat) the Yankees.

    Houston (for all sports) has been such an afterthought around the nation. Embrace the attention. The Astros are on EVERYBODY'S mind when it comes to anything baseball. In 30 years, they'll end up being looked back upon with a ton of awe... much like people look back on the Detroit Pistons bad boys teams now (who were all universally hated at the time by every city other than Detroit).

    I really like this take. If we got free real estate in their heads, that’s definitely something new for a houston team.

    I agree. I've been pleasantly surprised with how well our SP has been without Verlander and Valdez (for most of the season). The club's recent play has been very fun to watch. Hope this continues.

    The real takeaway is that Jose Altuve is the same size as 10 yr-olds.

    I still view them with contempt and not awe. Not different from LaBron James now.

    The only affordable space in NYC is in the empty heads of Yankee Fans.

    Boston -110 ML favs. With Greinkinator and the mashball mentality our lineup has right now, I like our chances.
