04/08/2011: Opening Day, Home Cooking Edition
« on: April 08, 2011, 03:03:52 pm »
So lock up your daughter
And lock up your wife
Lock up your back door
And run for your life
SnS is back in town
So don't you mess around...


What can I say... thoughts of the SnS crew descending on MMPUS this evening keep bringing me back to this.  Call it an omen, jealousy, or just good common sense advice, I dunno, but this song keeps playing through my brain as Spanish Flowers is (presumingly) starting to fill up with y'all reprobates...

In any event, the (Home) Opening Day Lineup for Your 2011 Houston Astros (via McTaggart):

Good Guys

1. CF Michael Bourn — Left Wednesday’s game at Cincinnati with tightness in his groin and didn’t play Thursday.
2. SS Angel Sanchez — Has started the first six games and hit safely in five of those.
3. RF Hunter Pence — Hit safely in the first two games before going hitless in his last two.
4. LF Carlos Lee — Already has two triples in a season for first time since 2002.
5. 1B Brett Wallace — Went 1-for-3 with an RBI on Thursday in Cincinnati.
6. 3B Chris Johnson Turd Ferguson — Has gone 1-for-4 in each of the last two games.
7. 2B Bill Hall — Has three hits in 21 at-bats this year.
8. C J.R. Towles — Making his third start of the spring.
9. P Wandy Rodriguez — Owns a 62-65 career MLB record with a 4.23 ERA in 177 outings, including 168 starts.

Fish:

1. CF Chris Coghlan — Tied a Marlins record with three doubles Monday vs. Washington.
2. 2B Omar Infante — Tied for club lead with 24 hits in Grapefruit League play.
3. SS Hanley Ramirez — Hit .300 with 29 doubles, 21 homers and 76 RBIs last year.
4. 1B Gaby Sanchez — Hitting .333 with runners in scoring position.
5. LF Logan Morrison — Two of his five hits are home runs.
6. 3B Donnie Murphy — Had third career walkoff hit Tuesday vs. Washington.
7. RF Emilio Bonifacio — Played three different positions on Saturday vs. Mets.
8. C Brett Hayes — On Opening Day roster for first time.
9. P Ricky Nolasco — Is 3-1 with a 6.26 ERA in five gmaes (four starts) against the Astros.

I know. I was calling the SnS contingent at MMPUS idiots...

[BTW, checked to see who the offender was, but no Tweets to DoRay from any SnSers that I can tell (which means they were at least bright enough to leave no trail as to who the offender was...)].

Just turned on the game in time to see us blow the lead. So we can't hit, can't field, and have no relief pitching? Gonna be a big year.

Bourn is a really good player. It's weird seeing a guy like that in an Astros uni.

Motherfucker.  It was 2-1 us when we got in the elevator.   We got upstairs, changed our clothes, turned on the game and.......what the mother fuck?   Why the hell are we now losing?

Motherfucker.

I'm really pissed about this.

I followed the entire goddamn game on my blackberry through dinner.   We're up, we're up, we're up.   I get in the elevator, we're up.

I turn on the TV, now we're going to lose again.

Fuck.

Gee its nice to be remembered but the rumours of my incarceration have been greatly manufactured.  Unfortunately I don’t get to see too many games live these days but I generally check the forum to make sure I haven’t missed any good rants.
