    They don’t need to, Too many crazy things happen with the Astros in 2025. Meaningless game.

    Hader will need a competitive inning over those 4+ days to keep things on track.

    Honestly I would not be upset if we extended Paredes this off season. Now is the time to strike. We got 2 ARB years remaining. I think we could get him below $20 million AAV. Maybe as low as $15 million. You end up getting the peak years of his career (26-32 or 33).

    It’s about to be an hour before first pitch. Why haven’t we released our lineup yet?

    Depends how many years you are talking about adding regarding the AAV

    Don't speak too soon, and jinx it.

    Realistic talk: LMJ may not be the starting pitcher because of reasons

    Hopefully it's not a regular who's scratched.

    At the time it was 7. It will likely be 6 in a few hours

    Nah they have him still listed as the starter. I’m more worried one of our positional players have another stupid injury

    Nothing's official on the internets until the lineup is posted.

    And I agree on your 2nd point. Would be just our luck.

    Lance's only saving grace tonight is all his blowups have happened at home.

    Daikin is 1,500 miles away.

    My bad the Alexander call up already posted on the first page. I bet he’s a lot quicker to pull LMJ tonight than last time out if things aren’t looking good…

    It was obviously the Trammell vs Hummel in LF decision than held things up.

    ...and they still refuse to bat Meyers in front of Paredes

    Based on what I’ve seen out of Trammel so far that seems like the wrong decision. Definitely makes more sense to have Meyers ahead of Paredes but oh well neither decision matters much

    Dodgers pregame booth is shockingly showing much admiration for the Stros.

    As**oles.
