Sorry, I was commenting on the post that this club has too much of a country club atmosphere. Not sure what your post was about then.

I just answered your post about LaRoche. You brought up Laroche as an example to another poster who said it was like a country club. My point was that it took the GM to come in and settle a clubhouse issue.

Got it. I though it was KW who did it and had the argument with Sale.

90 mph fastball down the middle and Frazier wiffs.

Ah, so you're the one in the clubhouse who knew it. I knew someone was the insider.

Ah here we go with the you're not in the clubhouse so don't have an opinion. It just appears that way. These guys continue to make stupid mistake after stupid mistake and there's no consequences.

Got a text an hour ago from my Astro's fan buddy saying "Lol Eaton is an idiot".

 

What did Adam do now?

1) Slipped and fell rounding third on a single to LF...decided to ignore the third base coach and still go home...got thrown out.

2) Man on first and second, no out (Eaton at second). Decides to steal third...gets thrown out.

 

He has been a bonehead today.

 

The worst part about the play at home plate was he did a Walter Payton dive over the catcher's head and landed on the plate on his hand. He could have easily broken his wrist.

A Kelly Wunsch shout out. Somewhere Tony just smiled.

Frazier has had 3 meatballs and fouled them off.unreal

What's that got to do with a country club atmosphere? Maybe they are just dumb players if they continually make the same mistakes. You are making far too many assumptions without the complete picture.

My mistake, it was KW. Forgot Hahn is the GM for a moment!

4 meatballs*

5*

Mr.Popup.

Probably 8 good pitches to hit and he does nothing

How do you not move the f***ing runner over Frazier.

Ugh. C'mon Brett, we need to get this run in!

I think he just showed us.

 

Loved the Kelly Wunsch reference Hawk!

Avila has such a hole in his swing low and in

Who would you people say is the smartest baseball player on the team... maybe Saladino?

That was a big run to leave out there at second base. Let's hope Robertson can nail this one down. This is a good game to win.

What's the complete picture then? I see a team that year in year makes dumb mistakes (different players) and the manager just sits there and does nothing about from what I can tell and have read. As SSF pointed out it took the president coming down to try and settle things not Robin. Sure would've been nice to see Eaton getting his ass chewed or Robin at least talking to him after his two bonehead mistakes. Just from afar that's what it appears like. Sorry for being a fan who lives far away with no connections to this team. All I can see is what's on tv and stuff I can read.

Other than Abreu had had the best at bat of the inning.

Maybe Saladino or Avila? Or Frazier?

Hopefully we get sharp Robertson

So far Anderson has shown some pretty good baseball IQ. He may be an overly aggressive hitter and not walk much but he really seems to understand the game as it goes along.
