Note the huge crowd of interested fans. But best of all note the fact that Jose is no bogger than the woman who runs the place.

The Astros ain’t got much. But I’m rootin for Jose.

  1. Neil says:

    He makes Casey Candaele look tall.

  2. Eric says:

    Damn, he IS short. On the plus side, that makes for a very small strike zone.

  3. Lisa Gray says:

    he’s 5 foot 5

    which is just really freaking kewl. same reason i rooted for danny ray herrera, the reliever who admits to being 5-6.

  4. Eric says:

    Eddie Gaedel ring a bell ? He was brought in because it was so difficult to get a strike on him with the strike zone being between the knees and top of chest. And he’s a midget.

    Can you say “walk machine ?”

  5. Becky says:

    Good things come in small packages! He’s a little scrapper for SURE!

  6. Becky says:

    Altuve refuses to room with a spanish speaking team mate, because he wants to learn english! Speaks volumes to me!! A GOOD KID!! Becky:) :) :)

  7. Bruce says:

    Brett Myers new closer!

    That’s thinking outside the box.

  8. Lisa Gray says:

    nah

    they just think he’ll be easier to dump at the deadline as a closer than as a suckage starter

  9. wags says:

    That woman is taller than he is. If it weren’t for the balloons, we might not be able to see him at all.
