    Of course you know all of that better than I do. As I said I was too little to understand LOL. 1999 kinda means something to me because I was at one of those games (even if I didn't know what the heck was going on).

    I try to educate (and I'll talk baseball with most anybody).

    Sometimes I'll frustrate, motivate and/or castigate, but mainly the first part. ;)

    Stros best hitters this season are The AL's

    Altuve and Alvarez

    The AL's = Killer B's ???

    Name isn't as fancy but championships = f*** fancy

    Brantley is quietly nearing 0.300

    Glad to hear.... and hopefully his increasing success happens

    But his OPS is 100 points lower than both the aforementioned

    The AL's

    IIRC, as of a few days ago the Stros were the only team in MLB with 4 players with an OPS over .800 (that should tell you a whole lot about the dead ball effect).

    As of now it's 3 (Altuve, Yordan, Tucker) with Brantley and Pena sitting on the outside by .00X

    Baggy mentioned this weekend that Mike's Dad (and hitting coach) made a visit this week. Apparently they found and corrected something in his stance, hopefully that unlocks the Dr. Smooth swing we've marveled at these past few seasons.

    Maybe Beltran can do the same for Yuli when we see him in NYC :cool:

    Maybe Beltran can reveal how the NYY have upgrading their cheating scheme.

    Yep, they are winning too much. They must be up to something.
