    People are saying they weren’t a dynasty but if you wanted to win a World Series in the last 7 years you had to beat the Astros or the Astros won or it was 2020. The league ran through Houston there is no debate about it. I’m a Yankees fan I know this as truth well enough

    I have watched the Astros since I was a kid back in the mid-70s, I was born in 67. Now, let's cut to the chase, Dana Brown has made some EXTREMELY bone-headed moves thus far in some of his signings. He definitely isn't Jeff Lunhow and never said he was, and maybe I should give Dana the benefit of the doubt, but with some of his off-screen signings, he doesn't seem to be that bright. To some of the Astros baseball fanbase, this team NEEDS to make it to one more ALCS before the sands do empty out of the timer, and they are dropping really fast. The Astros baseball fan base, not to be confused with the "true Astros fan base", knows that time is of the essence and some of these moves need to happen. I wish that the Astros would buy McCullers contract out and DFA him, his best year was in 2017 and he has been on the IL since then. He wears his heart on his sleeve and gets shook when getting hit by the opposing team. I also feel that Bregman, no matter how much he says it, will be in another uniform before he retires from baseball. He will not be there like Jose Altuve, the true captain of the team. Hader sought his last payday from the team that drafted him into MLB and may go somewhere else but just might get lucky and win a ring with Houston. Yes, every one of those fan bases from the other cheating teams has been waiting for the fall of Houston, and it will happen, like Thanos, it is inevitable. But we are watching and have receipts of your cheating squads. Because, no matter what type of bleach that you use on your dirty underwear, they remain stained. We ask not for your approval, but to only watch for the crap that you slung at Houston, we have been storing it for your squads and will let it be known when you ask for receipts. This has been the golden age of Astros baseball, and every Astros baseball fan knew it was going to come to an end, however, you might not want to hold your breath and see if they don't make the playoffs because you just might pass out due to lack of oxygen. #GoStros

    They have the chance to turn it around they’re not too far out of first in their division even though they are sub 500 they have a lot of injuries right now so I feel when everyone comes back they will have a good month of baseball and be back on top of the AL West the only way they finish the season sub 500 is if major injuries keep affecting the rotation or the offense. So I feel if they don’t win the division they will make the wildcard at least but I would hope they don’t make it too far into the postseason as they’ve had the Yankees number the past times they’ve met.

    Before you dismiss anything, just hold the phone. The Astros just swept Oakland at Minute Maid and they're starting to play better baseball now. Hold off on any judgment at least until July. And even if Houston makes the playoffs but get ousted before the ALCS, I still don't think the dynasty is over yet. A few of these younger players are showing some potential.

They should be fine this season and make the playoffs at least, but it's baseball so who knows. but if you're saying their dynasty is over in the coming years. sure you can make that claim. some of the star players are old or getting there. nothing lasts forever.

    It's the fact that the Astros made every AL opponent run through them for 7+ years to even make success is what makes them a dynasty. They are the only team AL history to make as many consecutive Championship series as they did/have. Regardless of a tainted title or not, MLB ruled to keep the status of their title and by the book, they have two in a 5 year span. That to me, and many others (maybe not so much in this comment section) is grounds to be called a dynasty. -Cardinals; yes for the most part, I'll leave that one up for debate. -Red Sox from '03 to '18...absolutely a dynasty. Aside from a couple of bad years, they were mostly contenders every year to win a title. -And the MLB itself in many publications and videos have called the Giants a dynasty.

    When you have to cheat to get a 2-1 win against the 2024 A’s I say yes it is over

    On today’s episode of reading the title and not watching the whole video while thinking that a good 10 games means long standing success… Honestly yall can attempt to take a victory lap if you want, just watch the whole video first!

    @@BatFlipBaseballl i did watch it. In regards to the pitching the astros have not had a "good" pitching line up after cole left.. Mccullers hasnt been good since 2017 let alone even play and when he does, hes terrible. Last time he pitched was in the world series and he gave up 6 runs in 2 innings. I just dont agree with anything in this video tbh

    Calling them a dynasty with a ring they cheated for is a disrespect to the sport

    Y'all can get mad at me all you want for calling it a dynasty, but I'm just using the same terminology sources like the MLB, Forbes, Fox Sports, The Athletic, and USA Today say. I didn't have the idea to pair them, but why argue with sources like those?

    I hate this team because of something they did so anything good they do now is solely because they cheated- a true ignorant loser.
