Ok…I had to google it. I get results about gun mounted cameras. You sure you spelled it right?
there is a gun mounted system called ShotKam that is used regularly for guys on their shotguns mostly. I hunt with a few guys that use them.

Sounds like maybe the A in Cam got swapped with a U
They aren't that close, must have been muscle memory that typed that

Fantastic that a guy like Rodgers was so attuned to baseball news that he read Altuve was moving and realized there was an opportunity in Houston and got his agent on it.

He's like Sam Jackson lobbying himself to be in the Star wars prequels back in the day by going on the Tonigh Show the minute they were announced.

I was curious as to what number he was going to wear.I was certain it wasn't 90
no kidding.

one of my sons was talking about getting a jersey, but said "90? no one is wearing that"

11 will be a hit.

That's a non reformed Cowboys, I mean Rangers, fan for ya.

This is day one of like 5 that they'll cover the Rangers on talk radio instead of non stop cowboys talk.

real curious what they decide to do with Chaz. I could't help but think of him since he was next to Cam when he got the news he made the team. You could see it on his face that he knew he was the odd man out. Sucks for him.

ESPN posted their predictions on the season, and they are calling the window darn near shut.

Astros received 3 of 28 votes to win the division and 0 to win the AL.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

I honestly can't say that I blame them.

2022: 106 wins, WS Champs
2023: 90 wins, ALCS
2024: 88 wins, wild card exit

The trend is going down and we lost four key pieces (if you count JV).

I think we will win 90 and the division but I can't blame National writers for predicting us to not win it. It'll happen eventually.

The national media appears to be predicting a big bounce back by the crotch-grabbers (18 votes to win the division from this article, as an example). Of course, they are assuming that 2024 was the aberration and not 2023... lol.

When was the last time the AL was this wide open? Can't count Houston out with the pitching we have.

Why would we count JV? His ERA was over 5, his WAR was negative, and he wasn't even on the postseason roster.

I am not sure we can call Pressly key either. He's entering his age 36 season with seriously declining metrics. He was a top 50ish reliever at best last year.

Are we not going to count the pieces added or returning from injury? Walker, Paredes, McCullers, hell maybe even Cam Smith?

The Rangers absolutely have a path. The offense should be strong. The pitching side just involves extreme health from unhealthy guys and 2 young pitchers clicking + shattering innings limits. Not far fetched at all...

I could be crazy, but I really like the Brendan Rodgers addition, too. Maybe I'm seeing something that's not there, since it took until last night to give him the final roster spot, but I really think he can be a factor on offense while providing gold glove defense.

I mean I said we'd win 90 and the division. I'm just saying I don't blame the national writers for thinking we take a step back. I don't think we will but I don't blame others for thinking we might

Luis news is not optimal. How has Wesneski looked in Spring? Will he be able to provide some quality starts?

My prediction isn't far from yours. I just think looking at it one-sided is lazy and the national writers are in fact that in some of their takes.

came here to post the same thing. national writers are always looking to drooling over the big names. JV, Press, etc. Not saying the Astros are the clear cut favorite, but they deserve much more respect then they are currently getting imo. I think they are a 85+ win team easily if everyone stays healthy. And I think 85 wins will win the west this year.

Ketch said Chas was working on stuff during spring, so not to look too closely at his stats (which i agree is good advice). My question is if there is any feeling from the club about how he did in whatever area.

He's really far in his own head these days. A change of scenery would probably be beneficial for him.

Go sign Moniak to play CF and platoon with Jake. Trade Chas. Get a 10-20 type prospect.

It's going to be revealed when they reveal the new train. They painted each orange as the head of each player that made the roster.
