IdStrosfan replied to the thread Luhnow's absence looms larger by the day.
Luhnow has been blackballed which is largely self-inflicted. Long before his suspension, was disliked by the established "baseball...

IdStrosfan liked Wulaw Horn's post in the thread 2024 Season Astros General Discussion Thread.

IdStrosfan replied to the thread 2024 Hypothetical Astros Trades Thread.
Can't argue with that logic. Except you reference 3 of the literally hundreds of teams in that situation. At that point the odds are...

IdStrosfan replied to the thread 2024 Hypothetical Astros Trades Thread.

IdStrosfan replied to the thread [Official] Astros @ Cubs.
Every MLB hitter has a 20 game span where he is much worse than his usual. This isn't ideal and is absolutely hurting the team but it's...

IdStrosfan replied to the thread I have grown tired of Jose Abreu.

IdStrosfan replied to the thread [Official] Astros @ Cubs.

IdStrosfan replied to the thread Fire Espada.
