Pretty sure they go for more than $20 so you'll have some extra Christmas money as well! I'm fairly certain those are the same brand as my Texans socks I got last Christmas and they are insanely comfortable, if a tad hot for Houston.

It felt like Bregman beasted in the playoffs but now that I look at his actual numbers he hit pretty poorly really. .208/.256/.417 He picked his moments though!

He was a defensive monster consistently throughout the playoffs too. I just got done watching the premiere of the MLB World Series documentary at UH. It was cool, you should buy it. A.J. Hinch, Jeff Bagwell and the trophy were there. The movie was cool and the Astros are world series champs. Trade the entire farm for Stanton and let's do this thing like the big red machine or the 90s Yankees Edit: Also learned Altuve also fell down the dugout stairs into the clubhouse in his excitement after Game 5 and bruised himself up pretty bad. Altuve owns. Sab0921 fucked around with this message at 04:51 on Nov 22, 2017 |

Looks like Gattis is going to be the full time DH next season. Throw those Stanton plans out the window!

The Astros will never have an above average DH it seems Gattis is a good hitter for a catcher, for a DH he's eh. His career high OPS is .826

Rangers claimed Centeno off waivers. I wonder if those Lucroy rumors hold any water. Gattis DH, McCann/Lucroy catching, Stassi filling in for injuries/days off.

I've been watching the Astros for almost 40 years and I've seen them through a lot of lean times. Even though I was happy with the Rockets' wins in 94 and 95, this is so much better. It would be extra awesome to somehow show him as long suffering, being one of like three players remaining from the 2012 team.
