This time, the Houston Astros are hoping things click. Obviously, that was a pun. On Monday, Houston names James Click their new general manager. Here is what James Click looks like – courtesy of the Astros’ official twitter account – since you have likely never seen him before. Welcome to Houston, #Astros GM, James Click. […] More
The Houston Astros have a new manager amid all their chaos. Known for his customary toothpick – and three time NL manager of the year – Dusty Baker will be atop the stoop for the Astros in 2020. Bob Nightengale amidst a few other sources reported the news early Tuesday. The #Astros have decided on […] More
Perhaps Justin Verlander will never react to it again, or he will say the comment was merely coincidental. Still, last night baseball presented the various 2019 season awards to award winners at the BBWAA dinner in New York. Verlander spoke, and subsequently put his foot in his mouth. In a moment that seemed a little […] More
Finally, a Houston Astros’ player has come out and apologized through the media. At WhiteSox Fest, Dallas Keuchel spoke to the media and issued an apology with a caveat. Still, it marks the first player in baseball who was an Astro during the years in question to come out and publicly apologize. For this, do […] More
Undeniably, Trevor Bauer of the Cincinnati Reds has always been one of baseball’s most out-spoken participants. Before any whistle was blown, he hinted on social media that something was up in regards to the Houston Astros’ tactics in the game of baseball. Now, Bauer joins a balding Barstool Big Cat and his co-host on Pardon […] More
Finally, it looks like Houston Astros’ owner Jim Crane has spanked his team into an apology. However, it comes with a catch. That team apology won’t come until Spring Training.

The faux twitter accounts that have spun out of the Houston Astros’ sign-stealing mess have been aplenty. For instance, there was Carlos Beltran’s ‘niece’.

Everyone points out that the Washington Nationals were victorious in the 2019 World Series against the sign-stealing Houston Astros. Especially those who were Dodgers backers in 2017, when the Astros were reportedly at their very worst. So how did the Nationals get past the Astros, winning all four games at booby-trapped Minute Maid Park? Nationals’ […] More
To say the least, it’s been a week for the Houston Astros and second baseman Jose Altuve. Earlier Saturday, Alex Bregman spoke from the Astros’ winter organization gathering with fans. While Bregman had little to say, the same can’t be said for Altuve. In fact, Altuve came off quite confident to reporters. Have a look […] More
While we have heard from many around the game of baseball regarding the Houston Astros’ sign-stealing saga, Alex Bregman is yet to speak. Bregman finished second in the AL MVP vote in 2019 behind Mike Trout. So this is no small-time role player we are talking about. Brian McTaggart got some footage of Bregman answering […] More
Obviously in the wake of Thursday’s influx of Houston Astros’ cheating news, some reactions shook out on twitter. First, we have Mike Clevinger.
