Hader is trash
Hader scared the shit out of me when I was watching it did get it though. Great opening day hope you guys had a blast.
Hader scared me today his velocity is down he needs 97-99 for swing and miss hopefully he gets his velocity back as the season progresses the stros need him for sure and in top form
Good win. Abreu and Hader bent, but didn't break. Cam Smith will get better in RF. He clearly has the athleticism and instincts to play there. Reminds me of Dave Winfield.
These Astros remind me of the old Astros of the 70's and 80's. Good pitching, just enough offense to win the game
Altuve needs to go back to 2nd base.
I don’t think that dodger dude knows Christian Walker is their daddy ?😏😂 he averages like 2 hr against them 😈😭
Like the makeup of this team. Good mix. The bullpen is what it is. A wins a win. Ask the rangers about that. Ha ha
Why does Hader have to make me a nervous wreck???
So this is what it’s like to be an Astros fan when there’s no dynasty?
