We will see. I was aprehensive about bullpen starters but it worked out nice. Blubaugh seem like maybe for future.

Mariners are a -250 for this game. Seattle with Woo on the mound tonight. I like the Mariners in this one. lol

Would be nice if we can score some runs with this pitching performance currently.

Nice win. Now White Sox need to take care of business and take care of Mariners

Astros win 7-3. Houston uses 5 pitchers total with Blubaugh going 5 innings (3-7). Abreu and Hader finished it off. Every Houston batter got a hit.

That's not going to happen here. Against forum rules to copy and paste premium (subscribe content) and post here. Sorry

for those of us who don't subscribe can somebody do a little copy and paste from this article? i'm interested in what those details are from week to week

any particular name/person that you are hearing?

Blubaugh with a good 5 innings for the Stros. Came in the 3rd, gave up 2 runs on 3 hits, 5 K's. Houston leads 7-3 after 7.

Charlie Sheen puts his money where his mouth is for white mother beaten by a black mob. Like it says here, the media wants you to forget about this. My question is -- why?! PS -- I'm still waiting on something, concerning this! [Hidden Content]

Your last sentence in the post redeemed you. 🙂

Dems always “saving democracy” with their theatrics. What a bunch of losers. A court can decide if their seats are vacant. Not sure what happens then.

I say leave the grocery stores alone. I like having stocked shelves. NYC is already mob-robbing stores and businesses. Wait til they hit the food.

Ditto… im still working in Bmt….and plan to stay for another 13 or so years.

I worked in inner city Beaumont for 15 years, exclusively with families below the poverty line. Lots of them do things right, but lots of them abuse the system. To pretend the abuse isn’t rampant is silly. As someone who devoted what will end up being around half of my professional career to helping and working with the impoverished, I have no issue with more restrictions on what government handouts are used for. Nobody should starve, but other people’s tax money shouldn’t be spent on luxuries.

I guess we'll see the new pitcher Rooney tonight. Just maybe he will come in handy. Paredes has opted for Rehab instead of surgery, Said he doesn't want his season to end. Also Singleto has signed on again with Stros for minor league Sugarland

They are making this game a bullpen game in order to give some of the starters extra rest. Probably see Houston use 5-6 pitchers in this game. Gives Brown 6 days and will make the start in the opener at Yankees. Will also allow Arrenghetti to pitch the second game on Saturday and Framber on Sunday. I personally like this move.

Why in the world is Okert starting tonight. Crazy

This is a horrible idea. If you want to do something, create COOP grocery stores like we have in rural areas. Trade some time working in said COOP for discounted groceries. Basically, have memberships & have the members help each other. Plenty of work is required from dockwork, to stocking, inventory control, checkout, janitorial, accounting, pricing, etc. Workforce is provided, discounts are provided, and labor skills are gained. Free market competition is still maintained. Win all the way around with very little government involvement—if any. That’s about all I have to say on the matter.

You really should quit while you’re behind. This ISN’T civil disobedience. It’s dereliction of duty. It’s a civil offense according to the Texas Constitution, and CAN result in expulsion. The link you posted is great. But, it points out minimum requirements on timing & procedures for implementation. Nothing is written anywhere in the Texas Constitution about not having redistricting on a shorter time basis. Redistricting MUST be done every 10 years after the national census. It could be done every other year. Nothing prevents it. There will be lawsuits either way. It DOES NOT take a Constitutional Amendment. Not sure where you’re pulling all this stuff from, but it must be dark in there. In Texas’ history, only one Party has ever used the quorum break option, even though—historically—they’ve been the majority in Texas. Democrats have used this ‘nuclear option’ four times. 1870, 1979, 2003, and 2021. Now, we have five times. Republicans have NEVER used this option, even though they have actually been the minority Party in Texas for the majority of its history. You say Republicans in Texas are acting like ‘occupiers.’ Interesting. I say they were voted in to represent their constituents, and are the clear majority in Texas. I may not like this redistricting idea at this time. I think it opens a can of worms that don’t need to be opened. But, it’s legal. I could even argue—with the recent population growth—it may be appropriate to relook at the timing of redistricting in general. But, I think it should be something done in regular session & not rushed through at the whims of DC. So far, you’ve been posting a lot about this with very little real, accurate info to back up your posts.

[Hidden Content] I believe you posted this link - everything you wanted to know about redistricting. IF Greg Abbott is breaking any rules or laws, point them out.

Like it says here: They know exactly what would've happened had they not returned. We only need FOUR more to return to get a quorum and I'm almost positive they will by Friday. They can't afford to fight this.

Can you cite those “Texas rules”, please?

We can respectfully agree to disagree, I hope. Redistricting is not a bill. It is a separate function of the legislature. We’d have to have a state constitutional amendment to change how it’s done. [Hidden Content]

and by Texas rules he will get 5 seats. Democrats will return at some point...... All 38 Texas house seats are up for reelection in Nov 2026 If the people don't like what they have done, they will get voted out. THAT is how it is designed to work......not running off like a bunch of children
