I am so, so happy that the Astros don’t employ one of those idiotic home run props.

Seems like KC ran all over the Astros in the April series they swept (8 steals), but not as much a factor this series. They seemed the much more athletic and aggresive team back then. I guess the pitching that’s been keeping them off the bases has something to do with it.

Ya think?

Carlos Lee’s stickhorseshitshow was enough

Neris waste a pitch on 0-2 why don’t ya?

I’m not going to mourn when Bregman isn’t an Astro next year but I do hope they find a replacement who can field the position.

That looked like they moved Meyers to 3rd.

You know, I went out to talk with those guys who hung out near the Conoco pump. I told them that their hats while undeniably eye catching were in no way Panamanian and if they were trying to celebrate Carlos Lee they needed to swap them out for a nice sombrero pintao. As you might imagine my helpful commentary was met with a silence one might describe as stony.

Yeah, I’m torn on this.

Good 3B are hard to find. Bregman will likely want an inordinate amount of years/dollars. Is Dezenzo really your 3B of the near future? I have no idea who’d be available via FA/trade to be a replacement.

Anyways…back to the game.

End of seven…4-2 Astros

Don’t get me started on the misunderstanding of Panamanian headwear.

I have a suspicion, completely unfounded but I’m not going to let that stop me, that Bregman is a favorite of Crane’s and that Crane will go beyond what he might ordinarily be willing to do to keep Bregman around.

I looked at the FA market for third basemen a while ago and it’s not really anything to write home about, at least that’s how I remember it.

Chapman, but he’ll be looking for a deal similar to Bregman.

Oh, I’m familiar with your particular preoccupation.
