TCB Podcast ready and willing to invade your thoughts and tickle your ear drums.

In this episode Sean Feist, and special guest Terri Schlather who writes for the blog Tales From The Juice on the Aerys Sports network discuss:

  • Jordan Schafer's run in with the law
  • The tragic death of Astros Minor League pitcher Dustin Kellogg
  • Reaction to the possibility of the Astros moving to the American League
  • Clearing out the 40 man roster
Our first offseason podcast is in the books and it's a pretty good one. A thank you goes out to Terri for joining us and making it a very memorable podcast. She'll be invited back again and you'll understand why after you listen to the podcast. I want to wrap this up with condolences to the family and friends of Dustin Kellogg it was really too soon for a young man with such a bright future.

Nice job on the podcast, guys.

Pretty accurate description of the whole league switch.

Just a side note. Josh Bell was taken with the 1st pick in the 2nd round.

Funny Podcast

Talking about the draft, you brought up some good points about the best player and signability and all that. I think you have to weigh where they are now, what their ceilings are, and their signability. However I also like the point that when does the first overall pick not sign? My question is when has the first overall pick signed quickly enough to play some freaking baseball before short season shuts down???!!!!!!! Bastards….

I also agree with the idea of burying Schafer in the minors for a while. If he’s got an attitude problem, bitch slap him and give him a reality check (he could be working as a cashier at Target). It worked for Happ…

What’s wrong with rooting for Jay Austin? He fits in with the Flying J’s so he’s got to be given another look.

J.R. Towles, same thing. Flying J. I really wish he could put it together but it seems I never get what I want. I want the Astros to SUCK and none of their prospects to turn into star players! See what I did there? Eh?

Brad Ausmus for Coach!!! Head coach, ass. Head coach, special ass. to GM…whatev…just get him back!

Lyon is the only major acquisition Wade has made that really bombed IMO. Myers was a question coming off his injury but had an amazing career year and was worth signing to hopefully anchor a rotation. He just didn’t repeat this year. Wandy is a good lefty and kept up his production this year. Pence and Bourn, however sad and disheartening it was to see them go, they brought us some really high upside prospects. I wouldn’t be upset if Wade stayed on another year.

Bring your replacement to work day….LMAO! Priceless.

Baseball America did their draft report card for the astros today. Wanted to know what they said…

me? jealous?

Is someone being a smart ass with clack, rec-ing everything he says? I’m not saying that everything he says isn’t good-it usually is- I’m just noticing a remarkable consistency with his comments going green.
