Nah, he was being diffcult. It was just a simple WC hashtag... one that didnt even say "#1stwildcard" and he just had to jump in to "correct" me specifying 2nd place. He never agrees with anything I say. The following poster did the same thing, just as he usually does. His comment was actually worse, but the same poster responds with "good point". I guess "good points" are now allowed to have multiple flaws within them. Dudes are just mad because I talked about Harden over a year ago. Which was later reinforced by his 10 minute YouTube video of crap defense. I enjoy the butthurted nature though.
I don't enjoy substandard unenlightening posts. Differing opinions are great. And I have no idea what your thoughts on Harden are, nor do I care. As far as I can tell you're just another Garm-child that's unfortunately decided to spend the Rockets' offseason in here.
The only post substandard is your last response to me. You're foolish if you really believe the Astros situation mirrors other teams fighting for first place. And I'm not the only one who pointed out the flaws in your reasoning. And if my being "a GARM-child" is all you can tell, you've "tell-ed" yourself a lie.
I guess I mainly had Cueto as a rental in mind when I said that, who wouldn't be had cheap. Being in the first year of what should be a long run of sustained contention if they play their cards right, I just wouldn't give anything significant for a rental, especially with the more and more warts that have begun to surface the past month.
Yes, everyone, the Astros' approach has finally caught up with them as evidenced by the very first slump of the year. If we had injured key players, that would be one thing, but this is simply an organizationwide failure.
yep, that must be it. I don't know baseball, and you're the one saying: -this is an organizational failure -the team has no injured key players Have fun watching whatever you're watching
Guys, Tomato was being sarcastic...... People are too on-edge in here. This team will be fine. The ASG came at a much-needed time. I fully expect the bats to wake back up, and the pitching to lock back in once this break is over. Getting Lowrie back, getting Springer back, and hopefully swinging a trade for a legitimate starting pitcher will put this team back on top of the division where they belong.
Tomato wants the team to move to Puerto Rico. It's pretty evident in his post. It's clearly also true that he is a Selig fan.
Well, the Astros, no, but teams like Tampa could play some home games in Puerto Rico because their fan base is very weak in that ballpark. Even when they are playing great baseball, you don't see a full stadium, so they could use some home games in Puerto Rico, Santo Domingo or Mexico to have a fill house. If the Astros play home games in Puerto Rico, they will not win a game because is a pitchers ballpark and we all know they only hit homers to win games, not many homers in Bithorns Park.
