    The young guns are making noice, and the vets are waking up. Keep it going! Great game.

    23-15 the last 2 years vs the A's, ~60%

    ~62% overall

    The A’s always seem to give the Astros trouble. They’re free wins to most all other good teams. I’m not saying they own the Astros or anything, just that they’re a team the Astros should have more wins against.

    Awesome win. Wish I could’ve watched more of it.

    I don’t want to speak too soon but it seems we may be turning a corner. The players seem loose and they are playing better. It feels good right now. Thats 3 in a row and 4 of our last 5.

    Yeah, that tiny crowd in Oakland doesn't motivate this team at all. Vegas will be fun.

    Was very much aware of them but I saw them in Deep Ellum maybe 90 or 91 on the Sailing the seas of cheese tour and they became one of my fav weird bands. I also played bass at the time so Les was like a god.

    I think it's officially time to stop asking the question "when is Brantley coming back?".

    Just saying.

    How long are rehab assignments? Supposed to start tomorrow. I'm hoping we see him in May but he hasn't played forever, you think just over 1 week is too short?

    Yordan 25 RBIs in 19 games.

    I haven't seen this level of production of anything approaching an RBI a game since 2019, when a young man named Yordan Alvarez took rookie of the year honors netting 78 RBIs in 87 games.

    Larry Lalonde is a fricking genius also. He doesn't get enough credit for their sound.

    Apparently the Stros farm system is a little bit better than the pundits thought it was.
