All of the criticism of Stroud's ability, or lack thereof, to process defenses quickly suggests that should not have happened. A confused, slow-...
Vinny Cash-Steala Best nickname ever.
I'm sure you agree that it is exactly that fact that makes this team so sweet. We lived through the decades of hopelessness, never having reached...
I will say the nihilism is tiring. Even in my nadir, I have hope.
Well written, MadMax. I enjoy reading informative and entertaining posts, nevermind the length (not what she said). I will concur that baseball...
As someone with rubber ankles from years of playing ball, I think his sprain is likely to be mild. He rolled it inwards, and it didn't appear to...
Lol. I get you and i believe you get me, as well. However for clarities sake.... I am comparing Maldy to college OSU RB starter Thurman Thomas,...

Billy D was my original favorite Astro - played 2B like a boss and was just 100% grit and grind. Upon review, he was like a 2B Breggy with a...
Sidenote: If B. Abreu were ever stretched out into a starter (as has been considered), he has that kind of explosiveness, as well. Just filthy,...
DK's ability to pound the bottom of the zone made him absolutely dominant for a good stretch. Still, I never thought he had "no hit...
Congratulations Framber! There are a few guys I believe have "no hit stuff" in their arsenal. Framber is one, Javier is two, and LMJ is the other...
I have been, and still am, thoroughly convinced that the Astros minor league development system is far ahead of the MLB curve. They are...
