[official] Mariners @ Astros

Good framber shows up today and the bats come alive.
I’m manifesting it into reality.

 

Frambers last regular season start as an Astro in Houston.

 

Framber could make millions more if he dominates today. On the other hand if he has another meltdown he will lose millions. Someone tell him that today. He may not care about the team but he should care about his pocketbook

 

There is a legit $5M minimum swing in his future earnings based on his performance today, potentially much much more.

Hunter Brown’s performance yesterday all but sewed up a top 3 finish in the CY voting, which probably has a ~$30M value to the Astros since they will get a 1st round pick because of it.

The monetary stakes of these games are insane when you really start to think about it, even if you ignore all the actual gambling.

 

I just want to see them fired up.....and competing.......no more complacency - BE EXCITED !

Except Framber - be cool.

Astros dont hit for Hunter, but they hit for framber. framber just be on his sabotage timing.

 

Hunter gets 4 runs of support, Framber gets 3.21

per this, cannot (will not) confirm accuracy: https://www.oddsshark.com/mlb/pitcher-run-support

Casey Mize and Max Fried are living a charmed life.

 

It is still one game.

I don’t know what the future holds but anything can happen in one game.

 

A strong game today and strong post season would make up any money he has lost the last 6 weeks. Just how it goes.

 

As long as he makes it somewhere else, I'm good with it.

 

For both his and the Astro' sake...I hope he balls out and gets paid somewhere.

 

5 million a year. Not just 5 million.

 

This game isn't going to change how other teams view him, much if at all.

This ain't a Kelvin Cato situation.

 

Rangers missing Semian, Seager, Carter, Langford, Eovaldi and Adolis who can barely run. Astros only did what they were supposed to. We've been folding against every good team for a month now.

 

When we beat all those division leaders earlier in June/July - we were riding a bunch of young players and rookes, they were playing hard and causing havoc, once the vets came back complacency set in......we lack leadership and competitiveness on the field.

Langford was playing. They were facing two good pitchers in DeGrom and Kelly. We were missing Paredes, Hader, Sousa and Yordan. I don’t want to hear it.

 

Yeah, the banged-up Rangers were no match for the full-strength Astros

 

Let’s go girls

 

Braves take the lead in the ninth over Tigers.

guardians up big

 

Detroit very likely in freefall.
