Just left a teacher inservice where the presenter from Seattle made an Astros trashcan joke.

Then said I was cheating at Rock Paper Scissors because I was an Astros fan (Wearing a shirt)

So I kindly told him I hoped his playoff drought ended in 2038 and thanked him for Graveman

@MLBNetwork @astros @markdero7 Framber might be the chupacabra...

@MattFontana25 @MLBONFOX @astros First round bye, "Sniper".

Thank you, Dusty!

Abreu chunking his glove is all of us. #wtf #astros

@heyxava What the actual...? Cannot have that in the bears' house. Those park rangers gonna lay the smack down.

@ChrisKetchem3 @HoustonChron Frontline, while I'm sure is extremely reputable, is produced in Boston so my guess is never.

@quallsastros You're saying that like it's a bad thing...

[Yuli's Back Pocket @AstrosFree]

@KentJones546076 @fluker_lane @TheAstrosLocker But JV is the exact type of player that Dusty caters to. He's a veteran who dictates his own supporting staff, thus who's in the lineup.

@majinbuda0901 Guess you forgot we were recently swept at home by a last place team. Recency bias, much?

His decisions are worth discussing.

@ATTSportsNetSW #StrosTuesday

We've heard mention of Yanier's Diaz 21 homers in his rookie year. Can we get a comparison/graphic of rookie homeruns per PA or games played?

@astros4ever123 I'll take the Tuve bobblehead if you still got it!

@Charles11501 @adams_at I didn't take it like you were. I just think certain defensive positions yield better bats and some yield worse, historically.

[Yuli's Back Pocket @AstrosFree]

@Charles11501 @adams_at But also, the lesser of two evils. You only have 2 catchers per team, so the least ineffective. I bet most teams have catchers in the neg.

this is awkward……. I won 4 🥴

@acekingspades @adamclanton @Orioles @astros @SportsTalk790 Didn't think about that, but it makes complete sense. Bandwagon's gonna bandwagon.

[Yuli's Back Pocket @AstrosFree]

@orioleslifer @adamclanton @Orioles @astros @SportsTalk790 Totally agree. Tuve and Bregs are the only two hitters left and everything points to Altuve not utilizing the system. Tuve will swing at literally any pitch, anywhere, at any speed, so that totally tracks with him not needing or wanting a bang to give him a hint.
