Especially if the current philosophy helped him lay off the sliders down and away. Can you imagine Bagwell and Biggio with better plate...
Similar experience. The blasting and the character assassination were staggering.
Man, this really is the golden age of Astros baseball. I love that playoffs is a foregone conclusion for Astros fans currently. I remember...
Sad. Way too young.
I was about to reply to @torque with precisely this name--Walt f'n Weiss.
Neither haunts me. I find both impossibly annoying, although I'm glad those fanbases and teams have something fun and quirky to rally around. If I...
When do pitchers and catchers report? I miss baseball.
Not reading this thread; only to say the title made me throw up in my mouth a little bit, and no the Astros aren't the Bills. And, thanks for...
Agreed with your post. Just wondering if you remember the saveourrockets.com movement, who spearheaded it, and which fledgling-but-already-awesome...

Got paywalled out ☹️
Well played, sir. #notworthy
I'm with you for the most part, but 'Puma? I've got Correa, Bagwell, and Biggio ahead of Puma. Oswalt, too, tbh.
It's probably been stated earlier, but I can't love Altuve's farewell to Chicago more. How incredibly appropriate. The silence was so freaking...
