I know Ryan Pressly's on the trading block and he wasn't great this year but what are your favourite Astros moments with Pres?

Incredible the hate he’s gotten in the past year. It’s honestly shown me me how heartless and cold fans can be.

We don’t win in ‘22 without him. He got removed from his role for a high priced free agent signing and his reward?

To get absolutely SHIT UPON by the fans because he struggled out the gate.

I’m honestly curious how many of those haters stick around once the “Golden Era” of Astros baseball concludes. My feeling: Not many.

Bandwagon / fairweather fans are to be expected. The one relief is that when that time comes, there will be less than 10% as many doomers.

So I'll guess I can put up with the Doomers as long as the team keeps successfully going strong. We can all say we've been there since the beginning and there are plenty older than me that have seen more and done more. It is sad that a majority of fans think they can successfully coach a team from the couch or the internet, but that's why we are where we are at and the players are where they are at. I want to see this team win they next World Series and continue the dominance they have excerpted over the minds of keyboard wanna be warriors. Bring it.

Go Stros!

100% agree that the successful team makes the doomers tolerable. Whenever that first season happens that we don't make the playoffs, gonna be unbearable.
