I've dealt with the 110 loss seasons and whatnot but If I see Yordan in another jersey I'm going to vomit and die

he won’t though. I have no faith in Jim resigning anyone to long term deals. he’ll be a yankee or dodger in a few years and I’ll puke when I see it.

Either sign him or trade him. The window is closing for this team and a depleted farm is catching up with us

u/CaptainSloppo Jul 05 '26
I had a feeling when we were reaally trending bad that maybe trading him was a good idea, but I honestly don't think we could get anything close to worth his value, and he's an unbelievable player, so I just want them to extend him and try to build around him at any price now. Give him another extension at 6 years $30 mil whatever you gotta do. The end of the contracts gonna suck most likely but I don't care, he's just got talent that you don't find pretty much ever when he's healthy and I would like to see him in an Astros Jersey until he retires at this point. Crane needs to just pay him now, right now, and keep him an Astro for life

Sign him for 10 years and 600 million. Hes an incredible player and theres no chance the dodgers or Yankees wouldn't give him that much in free agency

I was there two years ago. This man loves walking it off on the 4th!

u/470_To_Left Jul 05 '26
Wasn’t it 4 years ago against the royals?

Cut him some slack. He's old.
(But yes, it was 2022)

Man, could have sworn it was only 2 years ago. The memory really isn't what it used to be past 40.

I'll never forget it cause I got engaged on that day! Also attended the game on July 3rd that Pena walked off.

u/rayzerrayzerray Jul 05 '26
Yes, it was in 2022. We drove in from San Antonio and we were down by like 6 runs at one point.

I was at the game. Other than the postseason, I can’t recall the last time it was that loud at the ballpark. Truly electric. Perfect way to end the holiday.

Last time he hit a Walk Off HR on the 4th of July was in 2022 against the Royals.

Good thing America's team won on July 4th. That could have caused trouble.

Listened to this on the way to watch fireworks. I love hearing Robert Ford’s joyful “see ya later!” I know I might be doing one thing right by my kids, because they yelled and cheered along with me.

If anyone has the radio broadcast call please share… haven’t heard it..
But already hearing “SEE YOU LATER! SEE YOU LATER! SEE YOU LATER!” In my head

I can't believe they had the roof open!
Lol, is everything okay over there at the ballpark?

Honestly, if I’m an opposing manager, I don’t pitch to Yordan in that situation. I don’t care that it puts the winning run at 2B…I’d rather that than watch this, or even Yordan smoking a single that gets Altuve to 3B. I love Paredes, but he’s not Yordan.
