Darvish is perfect through 8 and looking pretty damn dominant.

I know the Astros are stinky, but I'm getting some serious Wood flashbacks watching this

[TruffleShuffle]

how many astros starters would be regulars on a good big market team? one?

Yep. Altuve's the only one.

I honestly don't think any of their position players would be. Maybe 2, Altuve as a backup MI and Carter in the AL as part of a DH platoon?

Ffff.

 

MLB Network blacked out because Giants-Dodgers is on there, ESPN is showing women's hoops, ESPN2 is showing the NIT and when I click on "Watch a free, live look in" on mlb.com, it brings up a repeating video which says "Stay tuned for more mlb.com live look ins."

[SouthSideRyan]

Ffff.

Check your cable's MLB package. (Thanks Rocket!)

Ryu is looking likes he's quite hittable and it doesn't seem like his stuff is all that great. Definitely not a #2 like some articles said he could be when we missed on him.

yeah, i guess a lot of it depends on whether carter's second half last year was for real. if it was, then he's definitely a legitimate starter on a good team. i'd say altuve could start for a good team, since he was solid last year at just 22. maybe jason castro, if he's one of the worst hitters on the team?

[SouthSideRyan]

So, Houston announcer, what you're telling me, is that this perfect game through 8 with 14 Ks is his best MLB performance?

 

Thanks.

Live look-in is now thankfully working.

Was that guy about to throw up in the red Rangers jersey?

[Guest]

Wow. Lost it with two outs in the ninth.

[TruffleShuffle]

lol marwin gonzalez

[XZero771679666304]

That sucks.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Well damn. So close.

[SouthSideRyan]

THANKS AGAIN THEO

[sweetpeteman]

And it was a weak ass ground ball

[TruffleShuffle]

FML i would've had like 300 fantasy points if he'd gotten that out, now i don't even get a CG SO.

[Guest]

Ex-Cub Marwin Gonzalez, at that.

[OleMissCub]

The ninth hole hitter for the stros is like the absolute lowliest starter in the MLB

I still can't get over how [expletive] huge Sandoval got in the offseason. He has to be close to 300lbs
