    Shows the Astros signed Kellen Strahm, former Rangers farmhand. The asst scouting director came over from the Rangers so I’m assuming he is the reason they picked up Strahm.

    Booked our trip a few weeks ago. This is the 3rd and last time we'll do this. Kids are getting older. :(

    Going to games on the 14th, 15th, then driving to St Petersburg to catch them at the Pirates place on the 17th before heading home.

    Same . . . My son still loves it, but he's getting older. We'll be there the 7th-14th and seeing all the games in between. It's our happy place.

    Every time I listen to Espada talk, I reduce the projected wins for this team. I know we had a thread previously about how a manager doesn’t impact winning that much, but holy crap I can’t stand listening to him talk.

    He sounds like he is searching for intelligent words to say never finds them.
