Astros Spring Training games start TODAY!!!

I am with bbk, the Astros are our team good or bad. I love baseball and will always pull for the home team.

Good man. Most will wait until they ARE competitive again and then all of a sudden - "a Die Hard fan". I always laugh my ass off at people like that. Originally Posted by bbkid

What they ^^^^^^^ said.

They got an O/U of 62.5 on wins.

I'd take the under.

Back in the days I used to know every single player on the astros roster, now I literally can't name one single player. I think this season I'm going to try to get back into baseball and the 'stros. That way I can start keeping track of them now, so when they're kicking ass again in 5 or 6 years it will feel that much more special. Originally Posted by coolaid

The current state of the astros is such that I will probably go another season without seeing my hometown team play. Between the bs with the TV rights and the ridiculous ticket prices to watch a AA team play, I am finding it hard to get enthusiastic as much as I would like to.

I did go to two games last year with my son. Did not know a single player on the roster. Drayton should have unloaded the team sooner than he did. I blame him.

Well, my Cards are playing like shit...which is awesome because there's usually an inverse relationship between Spring Training and the regular season for us...

And my "future" Astros aren't doing any better! Today: De Shields - Ofer 4. Singleton: Ofer 1. Correa: Ofer 2. Team: 3 hits in 30 ab's.

Oh, and fwiw, Scherzer only pitched 3 innings. js
