The Astros suck

Perhaps most amazing of all, the Astros have won just one game all year in which they were losing. Not losing after eight innings — losing at any point in the ballgame.


From Rany Jazayerli's article at Grantland, about the Astros maybe not sucking soon.

Too bad the Phillies are off their schedule, cause that would've been at least 3 comeback wins there

He already had stitches from hitting himself in the head with a bat last year. He's gonna look like Leatherface by the time his career's over.

whats with the arbitrary graph? is 77.3 the max a knuckleball can be thrown? Seems like it cant be thrown slower than 71 mph or something according to blackberry

Fail of the Day from the KBO.

Lotte's Jeon Jun-woo thinks he's just tied up the game in the bottom of the 9th. He proceeds to flip his bat (common in KBO, guys flip bats for pop ups etc, pitchers don't retaliate..part of the game there), points towards his dugout and begins the trot.

Slight problem...the ball's caught at the warning track for an out. (NC's dugout loved it.)

Nolan Ryan's son Reid (once considered a prospect about 20 years ago) is the new president of the Astros

they're just trying to show you that he's throwing it 2MPH slower this year. Don't try to infer anything more than that.

or maybe :thatsthejoke:
