Post by: Limey on October 30, 2017, 10:55:16 am: Yuli has been a major piece of the Astros success, but it's so fucking annoying that this one complete brain shart (it's too nasty just to be a fart) will be woven in to every story written about this series. If he hits the game/series winner, it will be right at the top of every story written about this series.

* Sigh *

He trotted out everything, nevermind the Players Association is an actual thing. Lucky for Yuli Bagwell and Ausmus are somewhere else, but, a pterodactyl, that could be fun.
