I want a sports car but I want all-wheel drive. I want a Krispy-Kreme donut, but I want low calories. It's a difficult thing, but the Astros lost a lot of games in their rebuild and none of their players were forever damaged. I only ask that we lose with dignity. Whatever that entails.
What makes this especially tough as this is going to be another year, as is next year, and as is the next year and there are no guarantees of anything which is not so hot when we're not exactly a forum of spring chickens.

I think it's a denial mechanism more than anything, that losing a bunch if games this year means we'll be championship contenders a few years from now.

Where the Astros are concerned, very few of those players were much of a part of those horrible teams, and they're an anomaly considering that what put them over the top was scoring TOR pitchers in free agency.

For some reason I have a hankering for donuts.

When I hear about years of control for guys like kelenic and Julio I always think about the thousands of mariners fans that will die before they ever see 2027 or a world series title

Sheff doesn't have his best stuff... lucky a number of these balls were hit right at people.

Just noticed the Jimi Hendrix cutout over the third base dugout. If anyone had been really thinking they would have put all the Seattle music icons there.

Who is Shep barking at over the third base Dugout as he walked off the mound?
