Official Houston Astros Thread (stance, manager, college, Chicago)

Last night, George Springer made, not one, but two big diving catches in the game against Arizona, one of which ended up being a double play.

This clip is subject to change, so you'll need to catch it here right now. Cool stuff!

Astros are starting to beat the bad and middlin teams...its early but maybe progress is coming along.

Need the starting pitching to stay solid.

The Rays won tonight because you can't lose 'em all.

Also need the offense to continue to produce in the clutch. It didn't last night, but hopefully, it will tonight.

That they did, RR. But the Astros can get back on their feet tonight. They've won their last 3 series.

As a Rockies fan, I liked Dexter Fowler. I'm glad to see that he's doing well in his new home.

As the season has worn on, he's done very well and has been a great acquisition for the 'Stros in order to help our young players. He's also played very well at Minute Maid Park, and that was reason aplenty for him to come here. He used to give Houston fits when he played for the Rockies.

Been an ugly stretch, but there have been gleams of hope. Altuve is quietly near the top of AL batting.

It's looking good tonight so far in the first of three against Detroit. And the slump ended last night against the Braves.

Two wins in a row, and that includes a walk-off.

A few weeks ago, they were really making things interesting. Imagine if they started another hot streak.
