Judge and Jazz only Yankees to not get a hit.


Judge was the only Yankee to not get a hit.

So, in his last two games (WBC and last night), Judge is 0-9 with 7 Ks.

We can hate on Judge all we want, but he's had multiple seasons as good or better than anyone else in the last 20 years.

Bingo update, we've hit SIXTY ENTRIES.
Two years ago, we had 10 as a coping mechanism for the godawful start to the 2024 season with simple categories like "Trey Cabbage does an HEB commercial."

Last year, 41 total. Using the math I learned at A&M in the 90s, by 2030, we'll have 91,000 people playing.

Nah. He's going to crush baseballs when the games really matter in June and July. He makes his 50 easy.

In honor of the late, great Houston Post and Chronicle columnist Ken Hoffman, here's his annual old joke:

Astros need to a win today to sell beer this season, because if they lose today that means they lost the opener.

Go Astros.

Prop bet of the day.

Who is the first Astros player to win an ABS challenge and in what inning?

Who is the first Astros player to lose an ABS challenge and in what inning?


Win: Diaz in T2.

Lose: Altuve in B1. It's his batting version of a tootblan.

I wonder what the over/under is on Bregman challenges this year. It's got to be like 200 right?

Quick, trade for J-Rod if you haven't already drafted him!

I did you one better, I drafted Cal Raleigh too

Record: 88-74
Division Finish: 3rd
Postseason: No

Team MVP: Pena
Team CY: Brown
Team ROY: Imai

3 Positive Predictions
> Brown, Burrows & Imai
> Loperfido has a breakout year
> More speed with these young guys. Smith, Matthews & Loperfido

3 Negative Predictions
> Aging team, core players spend more collective time on the IL than last year
> Team BA bottom quartile in the league
> Javier and McCullers are ineffective at best


I hope I'm wrong but not expecting a lot from the team this year. But I will watch every game that I can.

Real question on Bregs is his hit rate. I put the O/U at 80% and would take the over.

I tried adding the SCHN app to my Samsung smart TV last night and subscribing but couldn't find the app. I then read somewhere that smart TVs don't have the app yet, so my only options are to screencast from my phone or purchase a Roku or Firestick. Is that right?!?!

In past years, I switched from YTTV to Fubo during baseball season and switched back in the offseason since the Fubo interface sucks. I was trying to not do that again.

The officially supported platforms are:
iOS device (OS version 15+ required)
Android device (OS version 11+ required)
Apple TV (OS version 15+ required)
Roku (OS 11.5+ required)
Fire TV (newest 4K Fire Stick running VegaOS is not yet supported)
PC / Mac via browser

You can cast from your phone but you need to cast from the app itself via Chromecast or Airplay. The app supposedly does not work if you just do full screen mirroring... (haven't tried as I have Apple TV, still by far the best streamer out there )
