Moral victory.

[YTBulldogs]

Another 100 loss season beyond the horizon

Told ya. This team will set the record for loses by a big margin.

[Scoop27]

No Comcast down here in Hungerford-El Campo might have it
At least I can watch the Rangers on Fox Southwest

[Saggy Aggie]

Astros have struck out 13 times and still gotta bat in the 9th today.

That's 5/6 games so far this season that the Astros have K'd at least 13 times...

Read this weeks sports illustrated article on " the new approach and importance " of striking out.
Apparently hitters views on this have changed
Anyhow good article

I didn't read it. But, striking out can't be good other then preventing a DP. Lot's of things can happen good by just making contact and putting it in play. Like, scoring runs and winning games, moving runners up, getting men on base. Now, if the article say's it's better to K then make contact, the game sure has changed. And, Houston should win the series this year for sure.

[Saggy Aggie]

Lol Astros finished with 14 K's today

[YTBulldogs]

If that article says it's good to K, maybe they are not doing it enough, yet?

[Saggy Aggie]

LOL yeah we need to strikeout more!

[Gone Fishing]

Where is Hal Lanier and Yogie when you need them....LOL...Thats the last time I was an Astro nut......Most of ya'll on here are too young to remember those good years. I hardly ever missed a game and never paid for a ticket either! And if I didn't go to the game it was on HSE no problem...

[Old Tiger]

K-Watch 2013

[Scoop27]

I thought I heard 74 Strike outs for Astros in 6 games on Houston TV Sports show-Is that right?

[BwdLion73]

At least their swinging for the fences.....:helpme:...can't help but pull for them.

[YTBulldogs]

[Saggy Aggie]

[Saggy Aggie]

[YTBulldogs]

Astros have hit 4 homeruns haha

Maybe that article (striking out) is right? Just took awhile to kick in.

[Roughneck93]

Time to move from Brett Wallace...:dispntd:

[Saggy Aggie]

Shred of hope?

Astros minor league teams have the best combined record in baseball at 18-5.

[Saggy Aggie]

I think I saw where Wallace struck out 17 times in his first 21 ABs this year...

Good news though, Astros won again yesterday. :)

[Saggy Aggie]

Astros looking good for the 3rd game in a row. Not sure what to make of this...

[Saggy Aggie]

Astros won their 3rd game in a row and are 4-6 on the season.

Bud Norris pitched a gem giving up only 3 hits in 7 innings. After 3 starts, hes 2-1 with a 1.96 ERA.

Altuve got 3 hits, ankiel had 3 rbis and maxwell had 2 hits including a bomb to left center.

[Tejastrue]

Thank you Astros for helping the Rangers' cause!!!

[Saggy Aggie]

Astros just blew a 3 run lead in the 8th and 9th by playing awful defense.... Smfh

[Tejastrue]

Okay...maybe it's time to abstain! LOL!!

[Tejastrue]

Astros get one of the Ryans. I think it's a great move for the team. Thoughts?

Another step to being the Rangers AAA team.

[Tejastrue]

Another step to being the Rangers AAA team.

I don't really see it that way knowing the competitive nature of Reid and the Ryans for that matter. He does have ties to both clubs. That may have to change though. I know he has done a great job here with the Round Rock Express.

[Bull Butter]

He has done an outstanding job running both the Express and the Corpus Christi Hooks. This is a great move for the Astros. From what I've read today, anyone who has worked with or for Reid has nothing but glowing praise for the man.
