    I know it’ll never happen but it would be awesome to bring Yuli back and secure first base for the postseason run. You can’t tell me he wouldn’t be better than Singleton.

    They beat us in the ALCS

    that trumps any regular season series win

    yes I know we’ve won 2 titles to their 1.

    Rangers have scoreboard on us right now

    Honestly should've been 3>0. Damn the Astros had so many missed opportunities these past 8 years. It's just amazing the run they've been on...legit should have had 4 WS rings.

    Fck rangers

    I think 538 had us as the 2nd biggest favorite in history for 2019. That series proved that a reliever, even an elite one, can be overexposed in a 7 game set...

    Tigers blew it. Mariners were down to their final strike but Haniger hit a bases clearing double

    I think the Astros are horrible at communicating injuries and updates, most of us thought this might be a 2 week thing...........I can see why it would take this long but DAM be upfront, they should have told us that it "could" be several months, no way would I think this would have been 65+ days

    I agree... but pretty much all MLB teams do this now because of the CBA. They don't have to say anything.

    But in this case, there'd be no way of knowing how long this could take. Obviously not all bone bruises are the same. The fact that this was already bruised initially... and got hit again... is why its more severe.

    Once they realized the severity, they've been pretty open in that nothing was imminent.

    I’ve bruised my shin 7 times since Tucker bruised his.

    I’m ready to play.

    Get on the field Tuck. Walk that **** off.

    If it was a shin bruise he would have been back a long time ago.
