    Yeah, it's an interesting time to be an Astros fan. As you mentioned, we are spoiled, there can be no doubt about that. I'm just pretty concerned about the rotation and it's not even April yet, lol. I guess, indeed, we shall see. Hoping for the best and maybe we can pickup reinforcements along the way.

    Wait so the padres and dodgers just get to go back to spring training and reset their rotation?

    Well, they are in ****ing Korea. If the Astros had to start the season abroad, you bet your ass I'd want them to have a few days off.

    Another deferral type contract. $4.5 this year. Then $1.5 for the next couple of years.

    The worst piece of fried chicken, unless you split them in half before frying or are cooking them boneless.

    Are you a boneless guy?

    Dodgers out here playing with monopoly money. Who signs a 29 year old (birthday is tomorrow) catcher for 10 years?

    It's only for 140 million, it's effectively a 4/5 year deal spread out over 10 for LT purposes.

    FYI to all the T-Mobile network holders, their free MLB.com package is available to redeem.
