    I was with the grand kids at an Easter event and missed that. Kudos.

    With the Grateful Dead mask and all, wouldn't 4:20PM be more appropriate?

    This team will be rock solid if we get consistent pitching. Remember the 2019 Astros were the best hitting team in MLB history. Most of that lineup is still here, and hopefully we have Yordan for the entire season instead of just part (like in 2019)... and Kyle Tucker continues to improve.

    MUCH OPTIMISM

    So we know Castro is playing tomorrow, and I expect Brantley to at least miss a game or 2 with his hand. Here is my Dusty lineup for tomorrrow.

    Altuve 2B
    Diaz LF
    Bregman 3B
    Alvarez DH
    Gurriel 1B
    Tucker RF
    Correa SS
    Castro C
    McCormick CF

    Not gonna lie. They had us in the first inning.
    I liked the guy that sounded like Chris Farley. He was the most vocal one and it's like he had a megaphone.

    I believe so. Dusty said yesterday was a “scheduled day off” for him. Probably just being cautious with his hamstring.

    I know we’re only 3 games in... but loving what we’re seeing early on from Breggy, Altuve, Brantley, Yordan, and Yuli.

    Beating up on the A’s and hopefully the Angels starting tomorrow would be really nice creating some early separation in the division and starting the season off hot.

    Let’s bring the brooms out today

    Hey I'm thrilled he had a great game, but it was still stupid.

    If Dusty did have some foreknowledge that Diaz was gonna be the best hitter on our team (which is who you put in the 3 hole), then he should have been playing from day one.

    I missed much of the game watching UH Baylor game. What happened to Brantley's hand?

    Hit by pitch.

    Came out of the game a few innings later and had us worried, but x rays were clean.
