    It's Greinke day. I've been on a Astros high since the trade deadline and the no-hitter. I hope Greinke keeps me here for a few more day.

    my thoughts as I was watching this video
    1) man Altuve was sooo good that year
    2) Correa is such a huge asset when healthy
    3) That squad played with so much energy and joy
    4) That bullpen sucked so bad, I thought for sure the game was over after the Mcannonball
    5) Can't wait to (hopefully) do it again
    6) He wasn't a factor in this game but I miss Morton

    I miss morton of ‘17 too.

    Correa gets a bad rap. He is one of the best defensive SS in the game and he hits a ton. His injuries have been unfortunate but the dude is a great player and he is tight with his teammates. It was Carlos that charged outta the dugout. He definitely wants to win as badly as the others. I love that guy even though he will probably be a Yankee in 2 years.

    Extra day rest for Greinke will either help or hurt.... or not matter.

    Looking forward to crooked numbers from the '27 Yankee* offense.

    Correa is on a 6 fWAR pace for a full season in '19. GB% down, hard hit rate up to 46% with plus defense at SS.

    The dude is a superstar. That's why his next contract will be the biggest of the core 4, whether that be in Houston or somewhere else.
