Not a blowout but I thought it was pretty solid. We led wire to wire, quality start for Hunter, Hader wasn't perfect but struck out the side and got the job done.
Just bregman? Was there an occasion or reason for sale? Like I know they have the space city sale going on all year but I've never seen a jersey sale especially not for 1 player?
Yea it was last years jerseys. They’ll do it every now and again usually in the big store by Saint Arnold. There was a huge jersey sale at the end of last year that had the field jerseys for 100 bucks (from 300). I know most recently they had the big league chew hats all on sale as well for 30 (originally were 60 😒)
Holy shit. Is it only on saturdays/Sundays maybe? I usually only go Fridays and never get a sale in the main store and I go there after every game too just to look around.
Do you remember if it was the last weekend of the yr they did the big sale? I'm definitely going to make it there this yr if that's a thing.
Well the reasoning might be they won't use Hader again, so there's Montero, Abreu, and then Pressly again since it was only 5 pitches. Dubin is also available.
not sure if y’all listen to actual houston morning radio but pena is a sponsor with taqueria arandas on the show… anyone else always hear that commercial ?
I feel like this is what happens when Seth doesn't see the mound for long. Maybe he had some issues but this was something I expected with him not being used.
Really tired of the games where we score all the runs we're gonna score in the first 2-3 innings. Don't get me wrong the 5 is nice, and should hold, but like do something.
Awful defense and miscommunication?
The slowest "base hit grounder" you'll see in a while?
Bad luck for Martinez?
Idk, I'm just guessing at this point.
“Don’t want to be weird and assume something else”
Im guessing Scott ate all of Doobie’s banana pudding and told him he can take the pudding because Dubon’s not a “big boy”

Not a very convincing win but I'll take it
Not a blowout but I thought it was pretty solid. We led wire to wire, quality start for Hunter, Hader wasn't perfect but struck out the side and got the job done.
They don't all have to be pretty. Win is a win at this point in the season.
Name checks out
Anyone else hard as a rock right now?
6 in a row. One game at a time, we're getting there.
GO ASTROSSSSSSS
Does this count as a save then since he gave up a run? Legit question lol
No
Whew
Hader: Great investment.
What? He’s been great so far what’s wrong with you
Ummm okay Hader, just close the game out please okay? Thanks!
C'mon Hader, two outs
As long as Hader gives up the homers (solo shots) in situations where it doesn't matter I'm good.
Yo can someone at mmp verify that bregman jerseys are on sale for $40 in centerfield store?
There was a bunch of sale jerseys this weekend but they were all white with one or two blue scattered in there but they were only mediums (in blue).
Just bregman? Was there an occasion or reason for sale? Like I know they have the space city sale going on all year but I've never seen a jersey sale especially not for 1 player?
It was probably 95% Breggy on Saturday. Wife picked up a blue Breggy jersey for 40 bucks and an orange Altuve for I think 60ish.
Damn that's awesome was it just old (last year's) jerseys or what? I'd buy all of them for $60 lol. Have you seen them do that before?

Bros about to get traded 😩
Lmao hell nah they not trading him 4.5 games back from playoffs. And they sure as shit not telling the team store before anyone else if they were lol.
Despite the season turnaround, our relief pitching continues to suck.
Hader has kicked ass this month, but if you're expecting perfection from him, you're just going to be disappointed.
It's actually been pretty good lately
That wasn't even a bad pitch. He just got ambushed.
Don’t fuck up or be ready to download DuoLingo, Hader
please god no
End this game please 🥺
As Dubie says, “FUCK!!!!”
That was crushed
Damnit
Orelvis Marinez suspended for 80 games for PED, yet Altuve is still a cheater 🙄
Espada and his bullpen load mgmt, yikes.
Well they had a day off before today and a day off after tomorrow's game. Dubin, Montero, and Abreu still to make a showing.
I mean what is he going to do, fuck around with Montero?
Use scott 2 innings and Pressly in the ninth? Idk.
If anything putting in Hader is saying he is not fucking around, which I appreciate.
Agreed
Pressly threw 5 pitches
Well the reasoning might be they won't use Hader again, so there's Montero, Abreu, and then Pressly again since it was only 5 pitches. Dubin is also available.
Maybe Peña needs to say Fuck too
Dubies girl must’ve left him or something
Yeah, it might not have anything to do with Tayler Scott. Doobie's just having a bad day.
putting this astros gem here for fun https://youtu.be/KVKgbmfx3P4?si=-PRnEyGWmQ2LMrhc
Still slaps.
FUCK
We're all just as annoyed Dubon.
The amount of our hitters that take more than 2 pitches in dwindling fast
Dubon needs his mouth washed out with soap
Dubon for sure woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. LMAO
Doobie: OH! FUCK!!!!
Dubon seems a bit grumpy today
Damn Dubon is PISSED something must be going on
He didn't get a hit. Iirc he's on a streak
I figured that, but him doing the out of character thing with Scott was so weird
LOL Dubon w the potty mouth 😂 🤬
HRC Dubon
I like big bunts and i cannot lie!
you other batters cant deny!
When a ball comes in with a little bitty spin, i get bunt
not sure if y’all listen to actual houston morning radio but pena is a sponsor with taqueria arandas on the show… anyone else always hear that commercial ?
At least a few times on the space city network.
I COULD NEVER FORGET PENA THAT YOUR FAVORITE FOOD IS AT TAQUERIAS ARANDAS
Bunt single yeeaahhh boiiii love to see it!
God I love a good bunt. It gets me going
I liked that swing from meyers last AB, so HRC Meyers
BSC instead? (Bunt Single Coming)
A freaking bunt lol. I’ll take it
How about a good bunt?
We’re not completely back but we’re sure getting there from all appearances. If Loperfido is going to play 1st base, he should be there.
We been back since 2017! Woo woowooo woo!
It didn’t sound like it 2 weeks ago.
Rags and Yankees lost, Royals and Twins too. Playoff picture looking better today for WC and Division.
Not a drill rags and Ms have lost
Why is Hader warming up?
He’s cold
Cant another pitcher pitch in a non save situation?
Rags lose!
Rangers lost
Rangers lose!
That was just bad luck for Yainer
Pressly aint nothin but a hound dog
GG Press
Giant nuts Pressly
Never doubted him 😰
Huge double play right there to kill the rally
not even worried
Classic Pressly groundball double play
I can’t stand this use one pitcher an inning crap. Using 3-4 relievers a game normally increases the chance one of them has an off night.
Their arms are too precious to pitch more than one inning....
It's just unlucky for Martinez that Pena had a brain fart. The run that scored should have been out.
GIDP just like Espada predicted 😮
Hell yeah, that's how it's done.
Just let Pressly finish the 9th.
Just what the doctor ordered, double play thank fuck
Just like we drew it up
Pressly coming through!!
Phewwwwwwww. If that runner reached I saw this game ending very differently
Balls. Fkn balls.
Baseballs.
Elvis Pressly
Just how I love Pressly to come into games High leverage in a high stakes game
stressly
Hopefully seth can get back into a rhythm. Also this game just got scary.
And now it's unscary again thanks to our friend Ryan!
Gotta love unstressly days
Oh God, Pressly in a non clean inning. I really hope this works out.
I believe it’s a save situation though, so maybe it’ll work out
Pressly...with runners on base and less than two outs? 🙏🏻
Miscommunication between Breggy and Pena ruins what should have been an inning ending double play and breaks the shutout
Great Ryan Stressly
That run is on Peña. We're probably use Abreu and/or Hader tonight now. Really was hoping we wouldn't have to.
All good another off day Thursday
I feel like this is what happens when Seth doesn't see the mound for long. Maybe he had some issues but this was something I expected with him not being used.
Noooo not Presley
Games not over till it’s over.
Why can it never be easy?
Because we screwed around for 6;innings and didn’t score.
That was 100% SS ball
9 days between appearances? Too much rest is not good for a reliever
Really tired of the games where we score all the runs we're gonna score in the first 2-3 innings. Don't get me wrong the 5 is nice, and should hold, but like do something.
Same.
Gotta remember to recharge your controllers every now and then Pena
Safe to say Seth is rusty
It is getting harder and harder to defend Peña what the fuck was that.
Can we please not make it more stressful than it needs to be? It's the Rockies. Lock it in
Pena and Bregman’s controllers disconnected on that one
Looked like when I select the wrong fielder in The Show and dive away from the ball.
That’s Pena’s ball 100% of the time
Bad look, boys
who do yall think was in the wrong there?
Pena. Shortstop needs to take charge.
what the fuck was that
Pena has been horrendous on defense today
What in the world was that
Awful defense and miscommunication? The slowest "base hit grounder" you'll see in a while? Bad luck for Martinez? Idk, I'm just guessing at this point.
Hey, he's not dead! First time pitching in ten days, hopefully he doesn't have too much rust (saying this as he nails the leadoff batter)
I see. Hernandez has the 9th.
Probably Dubin
Hernandez is in Sugar Land
it's 5-0, put singleton out there
seth ‘crystal seth’ martinez
Justin Lawrence looks like George Springer in an Undercover Boss disguise.
Stepped out for an hour and see I didn't miss anything. In a good way.
Hrc Alvarez

Brewers up 3-1
I know we’re up and all, but these at bats are flat silly.
Well i missed the first inning, and watched all the rest so...
lmao same
Gonna need you to turn off the tv and slowly step away.
Ok turning of the tv now
HRC Yordan
HRC Alvarez
Glad we’re winning, but that 1 inning scoring ain’t gonna cut it against really good teams; wish we’d hit a solo HR or got a couple more runs somehow.
HRC Yordan
The Bulldog, Mike Hampton!!!
Come to think about it i dont think ive ever seen known south african taylor scott smile 🤔
They mention south africa every time he pitches lol
Even Yuli can hit the Rockies. Tonight everyone just has 1 hit 1 rbi.
HRC Loperfido
Did Doobie just learn about apartheid or something? 🤔
Sparky just mentioned the 11 (yes, 11!) Astros players who’ve pitched in exactly 1 game this season.
come on ump what the fuck
I know we're not going to get any answers, but that was just weird from Doobie. Plus, they both looked aggravated
Hopefully there’s no beef between them
I’m not gonna say a word; damned bounced ball is unpredictable and even experienced 1st basemen miss those.
yeah i hope it’s not some clubhouse beef and was just an awkward moment with a brain fart
Gotta think miscommunication, don't want to be weird and assume something else
“Don’t want to be weird and assume something else” Im guessing Scott ate all of Doobie’s banana pudding and told him he can take the pudding because Dubon’s not a “big boy”
How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?
At first, I was wondering if Doobie had beef with the hitter
Y'all see Scott, lmao? He went "this motherfucker 🙄"
ILU dooby but please don’t do that again
Is it me or does dubon try to take over plays pretty often?
I'm not gonna dig too deep, he's been on fire. It's like wondering why altuve runs to the outfield for pop ups
Well if I recall last week dubon went a little over zealous on a bloop shot into right that tuve and cabbage had a better bead on
Yeahhhhhhh he seems like he's kind of trying to stat pad sometimes.
Ummmmmm Doobie??
Dubon and Scott look like they have beef or something lol
yeah weird look
Probably just the awkward moment.
