Not sure where karma was for the 4 seasons they made the ALCS and the World Series they won in that timeline after Luhnow was let go.
My dad and I went to see him pitch his first start at the Dome. As I recall…and it’s been a minute…it did not go well.
Astros about to be 9 games back of Seattle. The White Sox bullpen yet another blown lead in the 9th. Very easily could have been a 4 game sweep of the Mariners.
8 back --- small victory Seattle lost a 1-run game vs the lowly CHI SOX What most likely happens the remainder of the season... - SEA won't be so lucky - Astros will be more lucky Abreu's days are numbered -- short number. That's instant advantage for the Astros, and disadvantage Astros' opponents. Mariners can add a bat at the deadline, but the Astros will add Garcia and Troy.. Yordan will finish ~1.000 OPS, Bregs ~770, and Pressly won't be 8th inning if his butt-hurt suckage continues. Espada won't be fired, but upper management will put a leash on him. Things look grim right now in the moment -- but time, stats, and history will likely tell a far different story. Enjoy the Dynasty.
Troy Patton... Astros legend. The one late round draft prospect that Drayton splurged for and got him to sign.
