Nice win tonight. A lot better pitching than yesterday.

Rays home winning streak ends tonight. Garcia, Maton, Montero and Presley shut out the Rays. Big win, hope we can take the series tomorrow with Hunter Brown on the mound.

Let’s Gooooooo

I will take it.

Do they have Julks jersey’s in the Astros store yet? Small sample but I’m liking this kid. I’m also pretty sure a couple of weeks ago he whispered in Meyers ear “you know I can play center field”. Lit a fire under him.

I agree. Listened to Julia interview him and he’s got a great attitude and seems to be a great fit on the team. Meyers had had his opportunities, time to let Julks make the best of his. The biggest problem is going to be coming up with a nickname for “Julks” 👍

Julks is from Friendswood. He has been around a while. He is 27.

Or the hitting coaches added a leg kick to Meyers swing which has been widely reported by announcers on tv. Hopefully Meyers can keep it up. Julks has earned his spot, don’t think he’s going anywhere

We need the both! Meyers hasn't been the same since his injury, great to see him getting back on track.

Myers was super nice when we met him at spring training. His face kind of lit up when Joseph asked him to sign his card.

He first implemented it last Monday versus Toronto and it seems to be serving him well.

Yes, Meyers, Stanek, and Tucker were the 3 coolest and nicest guys we met last year at spring training. Meyers is a lot bigger dude than you think when standing next to him.

I know, I just like my idea better. It’s good to see him looking like the guy he was before he ran into the wall a couple years ago. With Brantley on the way back and Altuve not that far off the Astros have problems most teams dream of. How do we get all these guys on the field. And when Altuve does come back Dubon has considerable playing time in center. We are outfield rich. Come the Allstar break if there is anything we’re looking for we should have what a seller is looking for.

That’s cool.

Yes Benno, I’m thinking we will keep one more outfielder than normal. I think when Brantley, McCormick, and Altuve get back, the guys leaving will be Bannon, Salazar, and Hensley. Hensley has done nothing to this point. That only leaves Dubon to spell the middle infield. Diaz has played some 1st and I think Julks played some 3b, but I’m not sure. It will be interesting.

Julia needs to lay off my boy Hunters slider
