Correa really misses the buzzers and trash can banging.

I mean what can the astros say?

The other team: you guys cheated
Astros: yea so

TOT: you guys stole it
Astros: yea so

TOT: you guys don’t deserve that ring
Astros: yea so

Springer is hitting like .040 Have yo think his hearing is bad

Correa could probably kick Joe Kelly's ass, but he'd also probably break three bones in the process of doing it.

Houston just might set a MLB record on getting hit by pitches in just 60 games.

Can we start throwing at Altuve now? I really, really, hate that guy.

Which is greater... players leaving for Corona or Houston players HBP?

They can, but he's really hard to hit.

During the game last night they flashed the Astros 2017 WS hitting stats home vs. away splits. It was crazy.
Of course the Dodgers lost game 7 at home.

The incident last night was not a surprise.

MLB is a joke. Kelly, who actually didn't hit anyone, is suspended before any Astro is disciplined for cheating to a World Series ring.

Unreal

We knew MLB was a joke when they refused to discipline any players and then gave out warnings against the players taking doling out punishment into their own hands.

This is just an escalation of their clown behavior.

What should the penalty be for throwing 95 MPH near a guys head? Keep in mind there's a precedence set for throwing near a guys head already and it's 8 games.

If you watch the whole inning, Kelly had no control over his fastball. He was all over the place. The implication is that he was trying to hit people in the head which I highly doubt is true.

2 games for the taunt at most. 0 games for not hitting anyone.

And since those guys on the Asterisks should be suspended and not playing this year, defer those two games until next year.

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Wed Jul 29, 2020 4:16 pm

He wasn't even thrown out of the game

Holy Shit!! Joe Kelly has saved baseball!

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Wed Jul 29, 2020 9:29 pm

Gonna make his appeal harder but I gotta respect that shit.

Jose Altuve struck out on a called third strike, and SportsNet LA play-by-play announcer Joe Davis speculated that he was “perhaps guessing something else.” Analyst Orel Hershiser then commented “Guessing’s harder than knowing.”

0-5 w/3 Ks

It’s almost as if.... he didn’t know what was coming!

What is Correa hitting? I think a lot of those guys are far below the Mendoza line

Correa is actually hitting decently. .323 Someone check him for a buzzer.

But uh....

Josh Reddick .241
Jose Altuve .176
Alex Bregman .176
George Springer .167

Where's a trash can when you need one?

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Sun Aug 02, 2020 3:10 pm

Well Correa is just waiting to get hurt. He can never play a full year, even if it’s only 60 games

Teams are pumping in crowd noise right? It would be awesome if teams starting pumping out trash can banging when they keep up to bat

Houston accused the Dbacks of cheating. Let that sink in for just a minute.

By the way, wasn't the roof open for both teams? Or were they constantly opening and closing it to give the DBacks an advantage?

The fact the Astros are on a roll now is making me sick to my stomach.

They certainly have the motivation to prove people wrong and I think that is what we are seeing. While not a fan of either club, a Dodger Astro World Series would be interesting

It's 2020.... If I were a betting man I'd put all my money on the Astros.

Well, Correa, Springer, and Bregman haven’t hit for shit, and Altuve keeps throwing the ball all over the place. Which is nice to see.

We aren’t out of the woods yet, but a 2020 Asterisks championship is looking extremely unlikely.

And Altuve gets hit by lightning.

Bit of a reach but I went for it.

Do they have thunderstorms down in Hobbiton?
