Podcasts about Altuve

Taylor (@TCasesLoaded) and Joe (@joegarino) invite Baseball Savant, Aaron Cumming (@SABRtoothTigers) on to the pod to discuss TDG's consensus second basemen rankings heading into 2022.

in the second hour of the show Charlie talks about how COVID cancellations are starting to pop up yet again along with more headlines from the sports world and continues his thoughts on if Altuve is the best second baseman in Astros history, before talking about a couple of anniversaries  today. Bottom of the hour Charlie talks about the lack of a cant miss quarterback in this years draft and wraps up with ESPN confirming a story from Sunday.

More from the Astros as an important offseason gets here too soon. Dusty wants to be back and his players want him back. Altuve and Correa both back the veteran manager for a return in 2022. Correa on the other hand sounds like a man who knows this was an end of era in Houston. We hear from all of them along with Alex Bregman.

Our Halloween episode has Patti briefly revisiting 1995, a very scary year, in which she first built her sportsgrudge against the Atlanta Team. But now she loves “those Hammers guys” including effectively wild Ian Anderson, the magical Eddie Rosario, and the only Austin left standing. Pottymouth reminds us of the treasure that is Dusty Baker, the first manager to take five teams to the postseason, and possibly the only to prune his family vineyards *and* live through the Monterey Pop Festival at age 18 (the family station wagon made it too). Altuve makes moves on postseason homerun records, but Manny being Manny seems safe for now. Get your taco on Thursday - Thanks, Ozzie.Odd for us to give credit to Bob Nightengale but he earns it for not using Atlanta's team name in his USA Today pieces. The Hammers miss an opportunity to truly honor Henry Aaron by not announcing a team name change during the ceremony. Fox makes no effort to Chop the Chop, featuring it in crowd shots. Smuck and Boltz never mention it, or the war chant, while openly discussing the cheating chants. Rob Manfred defends it based on local markets and perceived support by the *regional* Native American community -- for a National Pastime? There's now footage of a certain former president joining in on the Chop, albeit badly, so that's really all you need to know.Please PETA, use your powers for good instead of distracting us with your push to rename the bullpen the “arm barn.” Although that did give us a gem of a tune from Grant Brisbee. We are looking forward to seeing how much the Cleveland Baseball Team will have to pay the local roller derby team for use of the name “Guardians.” It's going to be fun to watch Bob Melvin manage the Padres, a team with money, and we've got our eye on Raquel Ferreira in the Mets GM conversation. The MLBPA's Player's Choice awards feature Ryan Mountcastle among other Patti BFs. The untimely passing of NESN broadcasting great, Jerry “Rem Dawg” Remy brings all the feels for Pottymouth, including some warm and hilarious memories.Do you have the MLBTV postseason package? You could be watching Dominican winter ball! LIDOM features Tio Albert, Fernando Rodney, and Willi Castro this year -- no excuses. Pottymouth's Cardenales de Lara are undefeated in the LVBP, and finals have started in the Puerto Rican women's league. Pottymouth celebrates it all by teaching us baseball vocabulary in Spanish.We say Halle Berry, Kiss the Sky, and vegan hot dogs.Get vaxxed, fight the man, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

La Serie Mundial se ha empatado a un juego por bando. Los Astros apoyados en tres JOSES, Urquidy, Siri y Altuve, consiguieron el triunfo y ahora se van a Atlanta para el juego 3. En nuestro noticiero de hoy, escuchamos declaraciones de los tres peloteros y analizamos el partido de ayer, además de las declaraciones de Nelson Cruz, ganador del premio Roberto Clemente y Luis Roberto Clemente, que vino a darle el premio a Nelson. Un momento muy hermoso.

In the first hour John and Lance discuss the Astros 7-2 win over the Braves in game 2 of the World Series. They discuss the stellar pitching performance of Jose Urquidy and the timely hitting of Altuve, Brantley and Maldonado. At the bottom of the hour the guys discuss Dusty Baker and if he was the perfect hire for the Astros and what a World Series title would do for his legacy before wrapping up the first hour. 

In their 101st episode, Bart, Lucas, Wyatt, Jarod and Aidan discuss whether the Houston Astros can ever fully distance themselves from their 2017 cheating scandal, who the top 10 teams in the NFL are, and all their issues with the NBA's 75 greatest players of all time. - Intro and News We Missed (0:00) - Can star Astros players like Altuve and Correa be redeemed with a World Series Championship over the Braves?

Today's word of the day is ‘5 outs' as in the Atlanta Braves were 5 outs away from burying the Los Angeles Dodgers as in one pitch changed the game and may change the series. Cody Bellinger hit a 3-run shot. The rest is history. (7:55) The Houston Astros stole a game! From close to being down 3-1 in the series to the Boston Red Sox, the Astros got an Altuve game-tying home run in the 8th and then 7 in the top of the 9th. Boston fans are furious with the umps — should they be? (17:10) Ben Simmons is a problem. The 76ers allowed this problem to get to this point. The players on the team don't deserve this and Embiid has had enough. (28:20) Review: Only Murders in the Building. (31:10) NPPOD. (36:30) So You Wanna Talk To Samson!?

Eric does a solo Locked On Astros podcast talking about the Astros victory over the Red Sox in Game 1 of the ALCS. Carlos Correa hits the go-ahead homer, but wouldn't be in the situation if Jose Altuve didn't hit the tieing homer. Framber Valder didn't last long, but the bullpen did its job over 6 1/3 innings, only allowing one run. Chas McCormick got three hits and the Astros stayed close until the offense stepped up.

In the wake of the whomping the White Sox took from the Astros in the ALDS, most every writer or commentator is talking about what a shelling it was and how bad decisions by the HOFBP were instrumental in the team's demise. But SSS duty geezer Leigh Allan and his son and west coast correspondent, Will, say the collapse was ordained in early summer when warnings from Steve Stone and many others went unheeded and the White Sox starting pitchers were horribly overused. (Listen to the numbers on abuse of Carlos Rodón, if you don't believe us). They again raise a bunch of details they've mentioned before (and pretty much no one else has) about how much more Sox starters pitched than the staffs on any other team in baseball, both in number of innings, and, more importantly, number of pitches, given the quintet's remarkably low efficiency and consequent high number of pitches per inning. Not that there weren't terrible bullpen decisions during the series, and not that the HOFBP hurling idiotic accusations about the Astros intentionally hitting José Abreu five innings and three appearances after José Altuve was hit — on the seventh pitch of an at-bat, no less — wasn't just one more display of what a classless, arrogant jerk he is. Do they say absolutely anybody, including a reasonably trained rooster, could have managed the White Sox to the AAAL Central title? Sure. Do they call for the HOFBP to be fired? Of course. Do they think there's any chance that will happen? Of course not. And not that there wasn't a lot of ranting about Astros and cheating and such, though the two disagree on whether cheering when Altuve got hit was over-the-top fan nastiness (other fan nastiness being perfectly fine).

Carlos Correa and Alex Bregman each hit a two-run double as the Astros advanced to the AL Championship Series for the fifth straight year, bouncing back from Sunday night's 12-6 loss with their usual relentless brand of baseball. Michael Brantley had three hits and two RBIs. Braves 5, Brewers 4 – Bats finally wake up but Hader falters, Brewers eliminated The Atlanta Braves won their NL Division Series by beating Milwaukee, 5-4 on Freddie Freeman's solo homer with two out in the eighth. Atlanta trailed 2-0 in the fourth and 4-2 in the fifth before beating Milwaukee for the third straight game since a series-opening loss. The Braves posted two shutouts and allowed just six runs the entire series. Dodgers 7, Giants 2 – Dodgers beat Giants 7-2, force decisive Game 5 in NLDS The Los Angeles Dodgers stayed alive with a 7-2 win over the San Francisco Giants. Mookie Betts was 2-for-4 with three RBIs, including a two-run homer that put the Dodgers ahead, 4-0 in the fourth inning. Will Smith capped the scoring with a two-run blast in the eighth. Today No games today MLB – La Russa-led White Sox make another early October exit Hall of Fame manager Tony La Russa and the Chicago White Sox had their sights set on advancing in the playoffs after running away with the AL Central. Their season came to an emphatic end with a 10-1 loss to AL West champion Houston in Game 4 of a Division Series that wasn't close. They never got the pitching and only occasionally got the hitting that carried them to their first division championship in 13 years and gave them back-to-back playoff appearances for the first time. And after getting knocked out by Oakland in the wild-card round last year, they bowed out in humbling fashion against the Astros.

Eric and Brett discuss the Houston Astros losing to the Seattle Mariners in the season finale. While Jose Urquidy wasn't as sharp as you would like him to be, he is technically in his 4th rehab assignment. The Astros offense was able to score five runs, but the bullpen coughed up six runs in six innings. Marwin Gonzalez homered in his first start in his return to the Houston Astros and Jose Altuve and Alex Bregman added homers as well. We also discussed the ongoing Jake Odorrizi saga.

Dave begins the show on the road in Tennessee and is conflicted that he may want to move there or back home to Pittsburgh. Cousin Sal and Dave recap what could be the last great sports weekend for a while as the Bucks win Game 3 of the NBA Finals. Giannis looked unstoppable as he puts up 41-13-6; the guys still like the Suns in the series.   Then the guys react to the US Men's Basketball team losing to Nigeria, Dustin Poirier losing to Conor McGregor and the Mets split their series with the Pirates. Plus, the Yankees get a big win behind Gerrit Cole only to blow a big lead the following day and lost to the Astros on a Jose Altuve walk-off homerun. Cousin Sal doesn't understand Shirtless Altuve?   It's the MLB All-Star Break and Dave is furious about the uniforms plus Sal suggests an event between angry managers and umpires. Plus, Home Run Derby picks as Sal like Pete Alonso and Dave doesn't think Ohtani will win either.   The guys discuss the ending to the Euro Championship as Italy Wins in penalties, Sal is ok with the ending while Dave thinks there needs to be a better way. Plus, Novak Djokovic wins Wimbledon, his 20th Grand Slam title tying him with Federer and Nadal.   Then, a look at NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Odds as the guys discuss if Trevor Lawrence will win it or another quarterback?

In the first hour, the guys talk about Correa and Altuve deciding to skip the All-Star game, the NBA Finals, and James Harden being detained in Paris.

Ceci and Shaun assess if there's more to Correa and Altuve pulling out of the All-Star game, Larry in Stafford sparks some ideas for the Astros, and the guys dive into how Tom Brady does not have an ESPY award. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cecil and Shaun dive into what we may get from the Yankees, react to Altuve and Correa dropping out of the All-Star game, tell everything you need to know about Craig Kimbrel in case the Astros bring him in, and react to Kyle Shanahan's comments on narrowly missing out getting Matt Stafford.

We start the show today with the decision made by Altuve and Correa to skip the all-star game, and debate if their reasons have any merit. Then, we dive back into the Karen discussion from yesterday and introduce a new Karen to the equation.

ESPN's Fred Faour and AJ Hoffman in the first hour of the show give their thoughts on the recent NBA news, Kevin Durant's game 5 performance and who will win the Nets and Bucks series. They guys also go over which Astros great they would rather have out of Altuve, Biggio and Bagwell.

Rock bottom reached a new low as the Yankees were swept by the Red Sox at home this weekend. Boone refused to get ejected Sunday Night despite the Yankees suffering from one of the worst strike 3 call you'll ever see that sent the game into extras. Phil Nevin and Marcus Thames lost their minds, but our manager did nothing as usual. Boone also believes hitting into double plays is a thing a good team does. That's a real quote. DJ LeMahieu's struggles continue to mount. No one can hit besides Judge really and Gleyber in the clutch. Stanton sat on Sunday after Boone promised he would play the entire series. Jamo was pretty good on Saturday but fell victim to no run support. Hubbs rants about the Altuve chants at the stadium. Luis Severino made a rehab start and was pretty good! All that and more on this therapeutic episode of The Short Porch. Outro Song: "Run to You” (Via APM Music Library)

The cheating Astros made their long awaited return to the Bronx, and it did not disappoint. Hubbs and Tommy recap the eventful series: the crazy first inning of Tuesday, mentally dominating Altuve (until Thursday), Giancarlo's hot streak, Dusty Baker not shutting up, and more. We also might want Albert Pujols on the Yankees even though it's a terrible idea. Outro Song: “You Got Me Burning Up” (via APM Music Library)

David Schoenfield joins Buster to discuss Yankee fans giving the Astros the business in the Bronx, how it affected Jose Altuve, if Yankee fans will inspire other opposing fans to taunt Houston, their level of concern for Jacob deGrom after being scratched and why Angel Hernandez deserves praise after botching a call. Then, Hembo stops by to talk about if Altuve will be a Hall of Famer, what’s behind the Giants owning the best record in baseball and Corey Seager’s defense.
