  1. 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...

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

    If I'm assigning a blame pie to this season: Pitching injuries that were unknown heading into the season (JV/Framber/Urquidy/Javier)...

  3. 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...

  4. IdStrosfan replied to the thread 2024 Hypothetical Astros Trades Thread.

    By the 40 game mark, 25% of the season, the team must have most of the issues behind them or else start thinking about 2025. By then,...

  5. 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...

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

    Yesterday did not deter me at all. It also didn't help. I expected France to give up runs and hoped the Astros bats would heat up but...

  7. IdStrosfan replied to the thread Panic Button 2024.

    That's only a 97 win pace. Not insignificant, but hardly impossible or unprecedented. And considering the Mariners lead the division...

    That was actually 5/12 last year and he went 1 for 5 to drop his AVG to .218 No excuse to not sit his butt down

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

    FWIW I agree and want to move on from Abreu. But it's a lot easier to cut a guy making $1.175M than one making $19.5M.

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

    I understand that as long as Abreu is on the roster he must play SOME But making a public statement that he needs time off, and then...

  11. IdStrosfan replied to the thread 2024 Season Astros General Discussion Thread.

    Agreed and hasn't been available until now. He is exactly what the team should go after in this situation- a veteran 1B who can be paid...

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

    Truth is the Cubs are a good team, and ANY 3 game series can have any combination of W-L results. There is no result that will change...

  14. IdStrosfan replied to the thread Fire Espada.

    I had a thought. Espada has never been a manager before, outside of exhibition teams and maybe winter ball? He learned from Aaron...

  15. IdStrosfan liked BMoney's post in the thread [Official] Astros @ Nationals.
