I have one of those throwback jerseys. Love it!!

The Astros have a very colorful palette. Here are my hats, minus the Space City one not pictured.

Abreu is a bust (could use just a hint of his mvp season). The starting rotation is broken (agreed re:Verlander however). The daunted 7-8-9 combo of Abreu, Pressley, and Hader has been abominable. Fortunately it’s a long season. Work these kinks out and have some midseason success.

Espada's pregame speech to the Astros today should be: "OK, we won a game yesterday. If we win today, it's called "two in a row". And if we win again tomorrow, it's called a "winning streak"... It has happened before!" Damn. Terrible start.

Fitz’s is a cool place to check out. It’s a pop bottling company and restaurant. Haven’t been to St Louis in a long time (decade ish) so do your due diligence, but this really stands out to me for some reason.

A pic from the east coast. Not nearly as cool as those in the 100% zone. We were around 88%.

Thanks fellas. I will keep an eye out for this Semolina.

I'm very much a traditionalist and fought the electronic strike zone initially. But the technology has become what it is so it only makes sense to include in the game.

What type/brand of flour do you guys use to roll out your dough and keep it from sticking in the wood stove? I've watched some vids and it the flour I'm seeing is different than the standard white all-purpose flour. Thoughts?

Iron Eagle was one of my favorite movies growing up. RIP Chappy.

Just seeing this. Wrapping up our stay in the Cayman Islands. Slooooow start for my Stros. The bullpen is struggling hardcore. Makes me crazy in the head. Ah well. All I can do is continue rooting them on! Like the old adage goes, “That’s why they play 162”.

The backer is manufactured decking actually. The border is an L-shaped edging that I trimmed, heated, and wrapped.

That didn’t age well. Snell to the Giants.

Hadn’t heard that but also not surprised. $66m for 2 yrs with an opt out after year 1 is excessive. I hate Boras. Just saying.

No. I was good. Lol doesn’t make it any less annoying.
