A reminder that the translation of The Los Angeles Angels = The The Angels Angels. #Astros

[Ian Ossakow @iaoss2014]

There’s no logical reason the #Astros shouldn’t be able to take the series tonight against the last place in the AL West Angels.

[Ian Ossakow @iaoss2014]

In theory, the #Astros should be able to stack some Ws on this roadtrip against the last place teams in the AL West and AL Central, respectively. Here’s hoping theory and reality turn out to be the same thing here.

*Grok didn’t get the implied comparison with the Tatsuya Imai situation. But nobody’s perfect. 🤣 #Astros

Grok understands good jokes! #Astros

Plus, don’t minimize that Mike Burrows is having to learn a whole new language down here. Hearing people say “howdy” instead of “hi,” “y’all instead of “you all.” Adapting to that, by itself, could take 2 years. #Astros

[Ian Ossakow @iaoss2014]

We need to give Burrows some time. That transition from McDonald’s french fries in the Northeast to Whataburger french fries in Southeast Texas is a huge mental obstacle to overcome. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 #Astros

Wild pitch will make Yordan Jump, Jump. #Astros

[Ian Ossakow @iaoss2014]

Altuuuuuuuuuuuuuve! #Astros

[Ian Ossakow @iaoss2014]

I’m not a statistician, but I would rate the odds of seeing a Yordan Alvarez HR at an #Astros game these days as “pretty good.” And a Grand Slam!

[Ian Ossakow @iaoss2014]

Whoever decided to use the Benny Hill theme song for that New Era hat commercial that just played on El Grande at Daikin Park deserves a hefty raise. #Astros

[Ian Ossakow @iaoss2014]

I’ma hoping Imai continues the trend today. ⚾️📈🏟️ #Astros

[Ian Ossakow @iaoss2014]

A good week re: shrinking the #Astros IL. Hader & Altuve return. And Hunter Brown is in the queue.

[Ian Ossakow @iaoss2014]

Fortunately, the injury to Altuve’s oblique wasn’t as bleak as originally thought. The obligatory pun. #Astros

[Houston Astros @astros]

We have made the following roster moves:

Great news. A lot of reasons to be optimistic about the #Astros in June 2026. ⚾️📈⚾️📈⚾️📈⚾️📈⚾️📈⚾️📈

Clearing a space for Josh Hader’s return tomorrow

Is Robot Misiorowski starting to malfunction a little? 🤖🤖🤖🤔⚾️🏟️ #Astros

Tatsuya Imai!! 2 quality starts = a trend! ⚾️⚾️📈📈 #Astros

This is really well said. HI > AI. There’s a lot here to agree on, regardless of how you voted or will vote.

[Fareed Zakaria @FareedZakaria]

At university graduation ceremonies this spring, commencement speakers have been getting booed for championing AI, given how the technology might threaten their job prospects.

In a commencement speech at Bard College last week, I delivered a more hopeful message — that humans can do essential things that computers simply can’t. Here are some highlights from that speech:
