(Beg pardon if this is old info and since it comes from a foreign source.)

As JV was announced, we were told while the team arrived around 5 AM from CA, JV came early. When offered the same travel deal, Altuve declined.

After going 0-5 with 2 ER, Hinch joked that he was having second thots about encouraging him to get some extra rest....

Hmm. He’s kind of hot and cold. Hope he’s due for a hot outing.

Well we all knew that was coming.

I hope White finds success somewhere that doesn't negatively impact the Astros.

Has anyone heard who’s on the mound tomorrow?

Whoever it is Sambito wants him to bean the first guy he sees.

The Yordan jack was reminiscent of Bonds.

474 feet? The right fielder didn’t even budge.

It’s a shame there was no statcast for the Bonds era.

A beauty to watch! So effortless, like swatting a fly.
Shouldn't be long b/f there will be 10 minutes of Yordan highlights on YouTube.

Not sure I said that exactly. I think it is difficult to attribute "what I want" from one post -- other than an Astros win.

Was saying that hitting Houston's best hitter in the head on 3-2 and then behaving like an ass might get a response.
This was more speculation that we might see more fireworks tomorrow (now today).

LeClerc might be the spark is all. Why? Well half of our nation is experiencing a literal dome of heat. Tempers flare and get hot. Probably on the baseball diamond too.
