    Bregman to short, Yuli to 3rd, sign Freddie Freeman!

    Then bat Kyle Tucker where he belongs at #3.

    You completely lost all your credibility when you said the astros gave up runs in the late innings in game 4.

    I honestly wouldn't even be as mad if it weren't for that BS and making the Astros the scapegoat for what was clearly widespread

    I wish Smoltz would tell us how he feels about it on air tonight.

    I'm still super proud of this organization and it's clearly well run and knows what its doing. We'll be fine. This ******* sucks though but I'd rather be here 100x than not being here.

    Let the haters hate.

    LMAO. apparently the 9th inning is the only time that's considered late. just stupid

    6 outs away from the completion of the game isn't considered the latter part of the game. hahahhahhahahha

    You lost all credibility when you said the astros lost the game 4 when they gave up runs in the late innings. You definitely was not watching. GTFO.

    I can tell you why. Youth baseball is extremely expensive. I have three kids, all three of whom have played or play little league. The combined costs of baseball annually is around $600-$800, between league fees, equipment, training etc.

    Youth basketball is effectively free; in fact, youth basketball is heavily subsidized by Nike, Adidas, Gatorade, and the NBA. NFL does the same for youth football.

    Baseball doesn't do that in the US; they do subsidize leagues overseas, however.

    MLB keeps complaining about an ever older viewer base yet refuses to subsidize leagues in the suburbs where 90% of American talent comes from.

    The middle class shrinks as we speak yet they still want Americans to foot the bill.

    This teams offensive approach looks good a ton of the time

    but it looks really bad when we have no power and a few bases empty singles

    Ha! My late FIL told me the same story about the string theory every time I went to his house.

    I remember how sad he was when the Astros lost in 2005. He never got a chance to seem them win it all in 2017.

    Man I miss him.
