Billy’s son is an infielder. And he’s legit too.

First win of the season 4-2! Wagner had a couple good plays at 3rd, and a couple good hits.

Any opinions on the hitter/pitch clock?

Today’s game was played in 2 hr 6 min. I’m not a fan. Everything seems very rushed. I like the concept but I think they need to lengthen the time a bit and or provide a few timeouts for both the pitchers and hitters to collect their thoughts in critical moments. The nuances in baseball are what makes it appealing. It’s a thinking man’s game.

Big ******* McCullers is hurt, hopefully not too bad. Hunter Brown should start the season in the rotation. FYI, next 3 games will be on tv

Lance McBubble-Wrap.

I think it should be a little longer also. Everything does seem rushed. 2 hr 6 min yesterday, first game 2 hr 33 minutes. Whitley gets the start on tv today. Should be interesting

Going to spring training in a few weeks. Any tips/advice? Planning to see 2 games.

We are set on GEAUX!!! We have not missed a home playoff game or world series game in the last 2 years. Looking forward to quite a few of the regular season homestands in 2023 also. Got a suite locked in for a game also.

That’s pretty dang impressive. I’m happy if I can make one WS game!

It's Joseph's birthday present, also going to visit some family while we are there. He's home schooled so we work off of the "live our best" life calendar, .

Stone Cold Stros podcast with Pallilo is a great listen.

He’s gone, but wasn’t “traded”.
