I'm resigned to what the odds are but as the great philosopher said, "Never tell me the odds!"
George sure thought it was gone.

I might be interested. Boosts the price of the ticket (coming from Austin) but I don't want to go and sit alone.
I'd name her Yuli but that's just me.
Jose effing Altuve!!!
A HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
I literally laughed out loud.
I would have to believe that every regular poster here understands that the price the A's or the Rangers would ask from the Astros will be higher than what they would ask of a team outside the division.
See Wiffleball. Throw Wiffleball.
Hey! An OSF sighting!
I started paying attention to the draft in '08, and this is by far the most boring one over that span. I imagine '07 was pretty rough, though.

I would like greinke but I'd be afraid of anything longer than 4 years.
yes, it was. their ABs were unreal.
This is only going to get uglier.
Where has Fiers been? What are we saving him for? why not use him in the 7th or 8th to start an inning?
Gattis has been even worse.
I totally agree, and hope they are working their analytical model that direction. Sometimes the next evolutionary step appears to be a step back.
Kazmir to Cain and Perez to Hosmer.
Pettis should have sent Rasmus in the first. I would have, anyway.
Keuchel's game now is huge.
I'm at my sister's who doesn't have cable/satellite. Can this be streamed with a DirecTV account?
And the fox broadcast was much more palatable to me than the espn one. I'd prefer one color guy (smoltz) but i doubt we're ever gonna see that again in a playoff broadcast.
Oliver will get his man.
Well, that was unimpressive.
Why would someone skip an Astros playoff game to watch the Texans.
Jesus. NFL.
Lively fuckin' crowd in here tonight. Is that how it is these days?
3 to 2 ................PANIC NOW
According to Fox we're facing Cy Young...
Strike zone was changed after delay as well
Of course not, why would anyone expect a $1B payroll team make the playoffs?
Yes...a 163rd game would count as a regular season game and stats count towards that player's totals for the season.
Hits in a Monday division-determining playoff would count for the regular season, right?
ETA: Not that I'm hoping for that, I'm just wondering.
Altuve with a lead-off double. How many hits is that?
And now the Twins have lost and the Angels are losing (they are literally paying Hamilton to beat them, which is pretty funny),
Is it mandatory full-service at the gas stations, like Mexico and New Jersey?
To this day I'm still shocked my first kid first word wasn't "FUCKINGSTEROIDASSLARUSSAPUJOLSBROKENWRISTHEALINGINTWODAYScheATZAMBRAno""
Mine told me a while back that my kid's first word was fffffffish. Umm, OK, I said.
Damn, man, don't you know you can't change the diaper if your team is leading?
The other night my wife asked if Keuchel is Hasidic.
10:00? This game started in September...it's now October.
Thanks for sticking out the PBP.
No, I just wasn't paying attention. Luckily there are enough of you around here to correct me when I'm wrong.
Harris is pitching now.
Gonna pay for it in the morning...gotta get up in 5 hours
Thanks for PBP, HH.
This is awesome. Venditte warming up (the switch pitcher). Excited to see him pitch.
Canha steals second as Conger bounces it down to 2B...imagine that
Fuck...we've played 1/2 an inning and I'm already sick of Ashby
T4:
Lowrie grounds out 5-3
Rasmus singles to LF
Gattis grounds into 4U-3 double play
1-0
Showing the other team up, whether directed at yourself or at them, will generally get that reaction.This hard on you have for Gomez has gone well beyond tiresome. Move on already.
And Aaron Fucking Boone with the buzzkill on Twitter:
"Fiers just fired his glove a la Jesse Orosco in the '86 NLCS. Congrats on the no no!"
FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
Castro is brilliant.
I knew in the first inning that Colin would need a great game to compete. He sure had it. Just that one freaking run.
Ump has been brutal tonight. He's all over the fucking place.
Let's see if I can make it more impressive:
So far, Altuve has played in 627 games and has amassed 773 hits. Pete Rose amassed 741 hits in his first 627 games. Rose was 26 years and 14 days old at the time.
Biggio only had 606 hits in his first 627 games.
Tonight was supposed to be a no beer night. I just finally broke down and popped a cold one.
It's incredible how many calls these overpaid cocksuckers miss.
Valbuena sure thought they missed the tag there and wanted a replay. HH, you sure they get challenges until they get one wrong - I thought it was a max of 2 (though after 7 umps could ask for re irs at their discretion)?

The fuck.
Thanks assholes.
That was fucking nails by Qualls.
So the idiot fans, in pursuit of a $3 baseball, ensure the Astros bat in the 9th a run down.
Yeah, I'm not ready to write off the Gomez/Fiers deal yet, but the Conger deal is a real head-scratcher.
Congratulations!!!
Cute bunch there OSF! (not counting frog mascot)
You guys had a baby?
Altuve knocked the snot out of that ball.Just about did the same to the pitcher on that one as well...
If they lose this 2-1 I'm going to be . . . I don't know what I'm going to be. I'm going to be sick of the Biggio HEB ad.
Feldman is pitching his ass off. Fucking offense.
He owed us that one.
I sharpened my chef's knife last night. Tonight my little finger paid the price. Oops.
That's incredibly lame. I can't imagine they would be interested in Utley under any circumstances.
Speaking of Singleton. Since being sent down, In 9 games he is 6 of 32 (.188), 0 HR, 4 RBI, 5 BB, 11Ks.
I'm quite proud of him for running hard the whole way. I really didn't think this was going to be dropped. Way to go Gattis, runner on third with one out, let's see how they strand him.
I don't see the showboating as "fire", I see it as "it's all about me". Just rubs me the wrong way.
Fuck, now we'll have to score two runs, which strikes me as unlikely.
Congratulations on Jackson!
No, his reaction after the play just reinforced what I don't like about him. He made a nice catch though
I think those of you who do not like Gomez have not watched him as an Astro. The culture of this team will change him, IMO. I like him, and I like the way he plays.
Rosenthal's column:
The Astros want to add a bat, but their search for offensive help is “way on the backburner” compared to their search for a starting pitcher, according to sources with knowledge of the team’s thinking.
Reading that article, I swear Drellich never misses a chance to stir some shit (i.e. a lot of needless re-dredging of the Aiken debacle).
http://www.orangewhoopass.com
I think I need to lawyer up.
Isn't that the very same column I just linked to an hour ago in the immediately prior post? Or was there another point you were making?
That's not a low-level employee as had been speculated.
According to Antonio Puesan, a former Minor League pitcher for the Royals who has a show called "Ligas Menores en Acción" on ESPN Radio in the Dominican Republic, the Astros have also signed Dominican SS Yeuris Ramirez for $500K, Dominican 2B Enmanuel Valdez for $450K, and Venezuelan SS Ronaldo Urdaneta for $60K.
That $1.2 MM (or $1.3MM if you will) in turn becomes around $2MM when you factor in the 75% tax.
I wonder if any team has ever lead the league in both Home Runs and Stolen Bases at the end of a year. The Astros of course currently lead in both categories. I wish I knew how to look that stuff up.
MLB.com posted their Top 30 International Prospects list a couple of weeks ago. Like FG, they have the Astros linked to Dominican CF Gilberto Celestino who MLB.com ranks #8.
I vilify him because he is a Yankee dick. That's all the reason I need. It also pleases me to see him fuck-up in the outfield.
...Altuve was going to throw to first up until the Yankmee TyCobb'ed him in the ankle....
Jose de Jesus Ortiz @OrtizKicks 56 minutes ago
Multiple sources tell me TCU closer Riley Ferrell, the Astros' 3rd rounder, is coming to MMP tomorrow to sign'
UConn is Bagwell and Springer, right? Who else?
As an Astros fan you should follow McTaggart.
I use Twitter to shame the local cable company ...
And Qualls walks the banjo hitting Iannetta.
I am so ready to end the Chris Carter Era.
Good for him.
Yeah. I get 5 bars and LTE on my AT&T connection in Reliant, and absolutely no service whatsoever. I've tried wi-fi and that is the same. I suspect I have more server capacity in my spare room than they've installed at Reliant.
Q is not the hitter Conger is, but Corporan is. They gave up prospects to get worse at a position that wasn't a particular problem. Corp was a perfectly acceptable backup catcher. Not one of Luhnow's smoother moves.
I didn't think LeBron James would have had a shot off the bat.
Zunino lines one to SS...Correa with a leaping grab!!
But I can not participate and I won't be watching if this the Royals vs the NL. I won't be offended if Altuve isn't elected but I understand that shit but for Infante?
Presumably the Cards will have to turn over laptops for all employees who were in that house, and any desktops kept there. The Feds will find who dunnit, or they'll find a bunch of erasures or attempts thereat. - which is tampering with evidence and obstruction of justice and typically treated with the harshest of available penalties.
The Joliet Jakes are probably in a world of hurt right now.
Dude. The Astros guys fucking re-used their old Co-ards passwords. The Co-ards kept trying down the list until they got a match. That's it. No one was pinging anything, no one was doing anything that my mother couldn't do.
I wonder if they used knowledge of the Astros' interactivity with other teams to derail or affect trades?
OSF is saying they aren't equivalent either. "Deflategate" is similar to scuffing a baseball. Corporate espionage is not.
Kind of like a pitcher scuffing a baseball? Really?
How would hacked information help you?
Many are. One has gone as far as to call it "Black Sox Part II". Which is a little overreacting. More like Deflategate.
Just got home from work. Turned on TV to see HOU was up by 9 against SEA. Checked Gameday to see who'd done what, and saw that HOU had put up 8 on "F. Hernandez" in 1/3rd of an inning. My first thought was "I didn't know SEA had two pitchers named "F. Hernandez"...

Took the bat right out of his hands.utter bullshit calls there,
Thanks OSF. Good to see you round here.
I assume someone's going to lock this thread and start a new one? That's how it's usually done, right?
Or, in light of the circumstances, we could have a combined Game Zone/Bus Ride thread for the night.
This Kluber guy is pretty good.Isn't he throwing a no hitter or something?
Poor Baylor. Should've had a stronger OOC schedule.
I will always heartily endorse the hiring of a lawyer but small claims court exists to ease the process for non-lawyers. It's not going to hurt the case to bring a lawyer but it's likely an unneccessary expense.
I could see starting him at AA, and if he hits there a June promotion to AAA then maybe July. But that would be rushing it. Is there any precedence for a guy skipping AA and AAA? (Any successful precedence)
That can't be the end of it.
Nurse #2 should have known better. You're a nurse who's been exposed to Ebola in the last week, and you're exhibiting symptoms. How fucking stupid are you?
I know, which makes me mad. For some reason he was to smart to have anything to do with it but the counterpart might have therefore,.....
Just a stupid argument for some being dumbasses.
I'm thinking he won't be available when the Astros draft. It's been awhile since anyone said that.
I try not to say "I told you so" except when I want to so...I told you boys and girls last year we should not give up on Carter.
Just how desperate for pitching are the phucking Phillies? This desperate.
Aren't you supposed to be on a honeymoon or something?
Reddick - Single to RF
Callaspo - 6-4-3, Petit with cool little flip
Sogard - BB
Crisp - Ground out to 2nd
Middle of the 2nd. No Score.
Any word on when Springer will be back.
She looks like she way married low. Congratulations!
As we say in SEC country - you out kicked your coverage! Congrats Lee!
she is one beautiful wifey. way to go, Lee!
No problem. Sorry for the emoticon, didn't realize that typing three ?'s would create that guy.
At least what I read wasn't certain that he would stay at 3rd. It'll be interesting to see what they do with him.
And I also wouldn't be surprised if Cosart was the guy in the clubhouse saying stuff to Ortiz.
One that is just a collection of funny stories is Bob Uecker's Catcher In The Wry. It's not on the same level as Ball Four, but Uecker is one funny man.
I strongly disagree. Appel is a whiny baby who's done nothing as a professional but bitch and feel entitled. I hope that he gets his ass lit up in Corpus. I don't blame Hader for speaking out one bit.
What does "smh" mean?
Yeah, but in the court of public opinion, Close wins because he knew he could get there first and start squealing in pain.
I don't think we'll ever know unless Aiken's camp releases the information.
If they don't believe he can ever help them, then they need to get rid of him.
I'm getting tired of the Aiken drama, and there's still a day left of it. I predict that the Astros will be slaughtered in the court of public opinion and fail to sign Aiken and Nix. The consolation of possibly getting Marshall and a comp pick in 2015 seems hardly worth the damage.
No my theory is that there were safer bets like Nola that may not have ace ceiling but could be a top notch #2. And with likely ~2 years less development time. 2 years less time for bad shit to happen. That is all. That's not to say that Aiken was the wrong pick. Just one that comes with a higher risk and likely higher reward.
My wild assed baseless speculation is that Kiki Hernandez will be added to the 40 man and promoted to take Villar's spot. Versatile player who has hit all year.
How the hell did Nathan's numbers get so awful? Has he only been facing the Yankees or something?
I love that six clubs now have worse records than the Astros.
But fuck you anyway, stRangers, you front-running douche bags.
Astros County is doing a great job of keeping a running list of each player and news about their status.
Qualls in to try to close it out.
I'm so confused, having to watch the game on mute. Did Sipp just move from P to OF?
I don't understand why everyone who likes baseball enough to call themselves an actual fan doesn't have mlb.tv.
Exactly. Marshall (rd 21) and maybe to a lesser extent Nix (rd 5) are the obvious tough-sign guys.

According to Twitter people, Jason Lane is now pitching for San Diego.
Singleton hits a HR to RF. Astros 6-2. No outs.
Look to the future
"The thought of taking a polished and now effective college player knowing that the guy can be in Houston helping out the waves of arrival that we'll be getting from Double A, Triple A and the Lancaster squad in the next two years and slot right in, that's going to be very attractive, and we're definitely going to be thinking about that, and weighing it," Luhnow said.
"But just like in any, and this doesn't just apply to baseball, any economic scenario you're in, money sooner is worth more than money later, and in a sense talent's like that, too.
"If we're so compelled by the high school talent that we're willing to invest the time and the patience in and absorb the risk involved, then we're not going to be afraid to do that. Our view with the whole thing is we want to look back at this pick in six, seven, eight, 10 years and be happy with the pick, versus the quick jolt just for the sake of the quick jolt."
On the other hand
Luhnow made the counterpoint that because the Astros have so much talent in the middle of their system, drafting a younger star would be logical to add balance.
"You could actually make the opposite argument, that we don't have any superstars kind of on the rookie-ball level, so why not put someone there so you can sequence it better," Luhnow said. "But we'll get the best player."
Not me, I don't tweet dingers.

Carlos Correa just put one over the scoreboard in Elsinore. 3-run shot to give him 4 RBIs tonight. Epic home run.
If I'm not road tripping down to Corpus to see him play in July, I will be pissed.
It doesn't matter. All that matters is that you were there, got the ball and got King George to sign it.
Indeed. However, that begs the question: How did you get the ball?
Very nice game for the Astros all around. Hope our Pacific NW OWA division was able to attend.
Actual May Line: 0-3 with a 10.05 ERA, 6 BB and 6 K in 14.1 IP and a 2.30 WHIP. The good news is that it is a late game so we do not have to experience the carnage live.
I'm stunned that for Stros-Mariners you think you can wait this late and get tickets. I guess you'll pay a healthy premium through a scalper.
A no-hitter? At the Hangar? No fucking way!
Dominguez - Single to CF
Krauss - Flies out to RF
Springer - (Dominguez advances on a passed ball) Single to LF, Dominguez to 3rd
Carter - (Cotts in for Martinez) K swinging
Guzman - (In for Presley) K swinging
End of the 8th. Rangers 4-0.
What is "how many k's Carter will have in his career if he plays 8-10 years, Alex"
Wow, Pots. Thanks for posting that. It seems that drafting a HS pitcher as a 1-1 is a riskier proposition than I even thought.
WFW, all of you.
How often is the recap better than the game? Over/under for 2014 is at 83.
Wates and Hoes seem like the same guy to me. Wates is doing well as you say but I think Hoes is going to have to play himself off of the roster for Wates to be of interest. That's what I think...I may certainly be proven wrong.
Well, all he got was a close acquaintance. Harrell ain't getting much help in the field from 42.
Really glad Feldman won't get the loss.
And oh yeah, cheer like they just dumpedcashmeth in the stands, you jackasses.
No shit. I'm very proud of him. I hope his teammates can get him a win to put a little sweet in an otherwise bitter day.
Incredibly gutsy game for Feldman.
Middle of the 4th, Tied 0-0. Only 1 hit so far. in the game (by the Rangers).
Good catch there by Krauss!
Like the swallows to Capistrano, Carter strikes out on a curveball in the dirt. Astros 0 for the last 16 with RISP.
I think that he made it up.
Actually, it is.
Hey...a ball in play!
Who are these idiots calling the game?
Castro piling up an impressive LOB total.
Kinda need to get Calhoun here, with Trout on deck.
Anyone out there?
That is pretty normal for here, I thought it was because of the distance. So, maybe it isn't?
Ashby sure talks crap at times.
Lest we get too excited in the meaning of all of this,last years' recipients were Rick Ankiel and Phil Humberthe awards are named after J. R. Towles and Taylor Bucholz

Great interview, I thought. Alot of meat on these bones.
Consider. The. Source.
Even the Angels haven't locked up Trout long term. It's beyond idiotic to suggest that this team's management is opening wide their wallets for a player who has zero major league at-bats.
Just imagine if this Astros experiment pays off. The bottom will drop out of the high-priced free agent market*.
I have my tickets, but couldn't get tickets for the whole family. I would be very grateful if this could happen.
OSF: Why don't you hold them for EastTexAstro and Mrs. ETA so that they can sit with us. I'll gladly pay you for their tickets.
It's gone out this way three times in the last month. Currently, it's been down since Monday and they cannot fix it from their end, so we are waiting for a tech to come out on Saturday to take a look. What a joke.
Scherzer with the start for Det. He's pretty good.
congrats! you outkicked your coverage.
Can someone move this to B&Q where it belongs?

Best second baseman I ever saw play shortstop.

Yahoo has messed up my.yahoo.com again, so I probably won't use it again till next fantasy football season.
I am continuously baffled by the apparent consensus that Thomas is a shoe in when all these other players aren't.
Cavender's, there's one on 1960 and Kuykendahl Rd.
Broadcast territories aren't arbitrary. They're geographic.
That doesn't mean the rules are "absurd".
I haven't been keeping up. Clearly they'refish-tossers.
Was at the game. It was cold, but honestly not as bad as I expected. Winning surely helped that. Nice little ceremony postgame with both the trophy presentation and turning out the lights.
WFW
Don't get carried away. OU is atrocious on offense.
Of course there's a reason both are starters, but I'm starting to think Linwood may do okay in Martin's role. But Reese... Can Norwood/Fuller/Coleman/Rhodes fill that loss?
There's a reason he went undrafted, several actually, and the two most prominent are size and arm strength.
Really, I think Marvin Miller should be the first name to go in from that list.
Doesn't matter where it came from. He got a $70mm discount specifically to agree to the league switch.
I can't stand either of them. I watch hoping both will lose.
I've got a buddy, Cards fan (from southern Illinois, so I don't know if the alternatives are better). Anyway, 2006, he goes to see a WS game, celebrates with his girl, she gets pregnant with a boy, Cards win. 2011, Cards make it to the WS, she announces on Facebook that she's pregnant again (another boy), Cards win. So, of course, this morning they announce on Facebook that, once again, she's pregnant. I'm hoping they have a girl.
These international stars seem to be less risky than the normal free agent market. Darvish, Cespedes, Puig, and Soler (still in the minors but is a top prospect) are all on average more bang for your buck than just the normal FA market where you get stuck with longer, more expensive contracts for guys in the tail ends of their careers.
Really wish you would've topped my original thread from 4 months ago about the Astros going after this guy.
http://www.spikesnstars.com/forums/index.php?topic=116021.0
But does he play the game with emotion the right way?
And I'd rather lose with Keenum than with Yates.
Fantastic point. Can you get the Dodgers radio feed over the interwebs?
Dodgers v. Tigers is my ideal WS. Brooklyn was my favorite team from when i started watching baseball until the Dodgers moved west. Detroit was my Dad's favorite team because they tried to sign him out of HS. I will root for the Dodgers.
Pinks and Picks
Once again, Schaub gets let off (almost) by a more famous QB shitting his bed.
Damn, OSF.. wish I'd known you were going!
Just got home from the game. Perfect night for football, got to take my 2 year old son to his first game. Left just before WVU started scoring in bunches against our backups, honestly the game really wasn't as close as the final score indicated. This season could be a very special one in Waco.
This. Will. Be. Fun. FYB
The Astros/Rockets partnership with Comcast was announced in October 2010, over a year before the Astros sale was finalized. The network launched on Crane's watch but he inherited the deal.
Joe Torre, come on down!
Take that Beltre. FBeltre.
2 for me to sit on until I realize I can't go and then offer them up to the poor soul who decided they want to go but were too late, thank you.
I don't know about that. Would have been an amazing play if he nailed the throw.
I seen it but I don't believe it.
And a double on a ropey half-swing.
Of course he [Chris Carter] also made a terrible mistake in left that cost a run and he hit a base runner on the head with a thrown ball that ended up being a good thing.
It takes a little time for the feed to get down here what with the router hops and NSA filters and so on.
Fields comes in and to no one's surprise slams the door shut with ease and authority and is now comfortably positioned for the win.
Awesome! Loved the video!

Sorry to hijack this thread, wasn't sure where to put this.
I am at the Kernels/River Bandits game tonight and on the roster handed out at the game both Appel and McCullers are listed as TI. Any idea? Temporarily Inactive?
That would have summed it up nicely.
Bullshit Ryan.
Lyes gets the strikeout. Astros win 10-8!
That's what I get for not going tonight.
Altuve promptly delivers an RBI double his first AB. You're welcome. Should I go into how much Lyles has sucked of late? He could use the boost.
Also, The Astros have only one player to whom they they have money committed in 2014. It's Wandy Rodriguez. Heads should roll!
Springer hits a humpback liner that the shortstop makes a nice leaping grab on. But Laird picks him up with a two-run shot to LF that gives OKC a 3-1 lead.
Walks in his first AB on a 3-1 count (he walked twice last night, too). Then he steals second cleanly but is stranded there.
Doesn't look like Singleton is in the lineup tonight.
He's down by 3% now.
Urgh. Knocked out of the game in the 4th, gave up a 5-spot.
And then Stassi falls for the hidden ball trick.
Good for Velazquez. Looking forward to seeing what he can do in high-A.
Wow. There wasn't much ballpark left for that one. I hope the offense can get him a little rest this inning.
Is it really broken?
