[Official] Twins @ Astros

Astros are closer to #2 than Seattle is to the Astros.

 

WAR Leaders

5.6 Judge
4.1 Pete Crow-Armstrong
3.9 Jeremy Pena
3.7 Tyrik Skubal
3.6 Paul Skenes
3.3 Cal Raleigh
3.2 Hunter Brown

This was before last night's game, so Pena likely jumped to 4.0 or 4.1. PCA only went 1-4.

 

Paredes looks like he will avoid an IL stint. Hopefully back at the start of the next series.

 

That's shocking, and I love it

 

LOL Yall are funny. Espada doesn’t know what an MRI is. He has heard the term before but like a lot of things in life, he just pretends he understands and smiles and nods his head. He may ask his wife later in private what it means after he asks her what a Pap smear is again for the 500th time - but most likely he will just let it go and leave whatever an MRI is to God’s will. A few positive pats to Paredes’ back - a quick hug and an awkward forced prayer in the locker room bathroom while Paredes is in the stall will do the trick….

 

Stros are 2-1 after scoring 10 runs this year.

 

Good call, Gordo

 

lol so are you saying Espada isn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer ? That’ll make a lot of people happy

 

Sharp as a bowling ball

 

I wouldn’t mind seeing Rodgers DFA and calling up Hummel. Guillorme and Hummel could man 2B/LF depending on where Altuve plays, which would keep a LH bat in the lineup. Both guys are really good defensively.

 

Tell us how you really feel about Espada. I thought I was down on him (and I was OK with his hiring) but I got nothing on you. Lol

 

Yeah, late August 2026

 

The fact we actually lost a game scoring double digits is sad.

 

Finally, DD has brought his superior player evaluation skills to the Astros forum. That’s a win for all of us.

 

Not what I was saying, and we have not lost a game scoring double digits this year. Closest we got was I believe losing 13-9 to Cincy.

In games the next day after the Astros have scored 10 runs, the Astros are 2-1. Today is another such game, and people like to talk about the 10-run curse so I am here to preemptively call bullshit on that.

 

Ah ok gotcha. We're gonna win this one because Hunter Brown...can't be losing his games.

 

lol one game, dude throws meat pitches.

And the fact the you have been sitting on that and waiting…..shows I live rent free in your tiny head, sad sad man.

Now stop freeloading and contribute to the site.



DD

 

It’s kinda obvious. Still, he’s probably doing better than Dusty would with this team.

 

It’s always bothered you when people joke about that, even when it was the truth. Also, it’s not been so much about the W-L as it’s been about just the lack of offense after scoring double digits. We won a couple of those low scoring games, in years past.
