    This offseason flew by. Still feels like they just won Game 7 yesterday.

    Not Astros related but Jesus Christ Swarb looks great. Wish Reed did the same.

    Last I checked, Michael Collins (last photo) flew with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin to the moon.

    Only fitting, then, that upon his return to Earth he would coach the ASTROS.

    Matt Ramsey with that beard there is going to fit right in.

    The troops look like they're ready to march into battle.

    Seeing Gustave there reminds me of how well he pitched in last year's spring training.

    Federowicz has some HR power. Would be nice for him to show that off in ST.

    Brendan McCurry was lights-out for about a 6-week stretch last season. If people can set the meth issue aside I can see Brendan developing a fan base this year.

    Major props to @J.R. for the names of the lesser knowns. I wouldve never guessed that was Morgan Ensberg. When did he join the staff?

    He still plays in the NL, right?

    Roll a ball out to him and see how he does.

    Been back with the club (minors) for a few years I think now but is in his 2nd(?) year of managing. He's their Class A Advanced manager.

    He did some radio? PBP here and there, and recently was a roving instructor. He's an incredibly cerebral guy. Listen to him whenever you get the chance.

    Jesus, Ensberg looks like he's lived a hard 42.

    This was already posted in the 2018 Spring Training games thread but I figured I'd post it in here as well.

    Lol I felt old when I saw the picture. He was such a fresh-faced youngster when he broke into the bigs and I was in high school around that time. Now look at him.
