My NFL knowledge could (comfortably) fit on the corner of a postage stamp, however I’ll be at the @houstontexans.bsky.social game vs the Jaguars on the 18th at Wembley here in London & OF COURSE I’ll be backing them! So I took a trip to the @NFL pop-up store to suitably prepare!🤘 #HTownMade

Game 8, Astros 4-11 A’s. Definitely not one to remember.

MLBというスポーツにとって、来年は不透明な状況にあります。野球が再開された暁には、今井さんがアストロズで正当なチャンスを与えられ、自らの力で成功を掴み取れることを願っています。日本のアストロズファン（あるいは日本出身のファン）は、この状況をどう捉えているのでしょうか？ 4/4 🤘🇯🇵💫

000

Astros Fans UK @astrosfansuk.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

仮に野球的な理由だけであったとしても、今井投手が全く起用されなかったことには合点がいきません。さらに不可解なのは、ポストシーズンのロースターに入っていたにもかかわらず、試合展開にかかわらず登板の機会が一度もなかったことです。シーズン終盤の2ヶ月余りにわたる今井達也投手の扱いはあまりに酷いものであり、私としてはその責任が問われるべきだと考えます。3/4 🤘🇯🇵💫

Astros Fans UK @astrosfansuk.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

マウンド上での彼の投球は、素晴らしい出来栄えとそうでない出来栄えの間を行き来していましたが、やがてブルペンからのリリーフ投手に回されることになりました。ここから事態は不可解な展開を見せます。ブルペンでの今井さんの投球内容は概して非常に良かったにもかかわらず、彼が起用されることはほとんどありませんでした。アストロズの投手陣が疲弊しきっているのを目の当たりにしながら、今井さんが使われずにベンチに座っているというのは、あまりにも理不尽な状況でした。はっきり言っておきますが、もしこれが単に、投球回数が一定数に達すると報酬が増額されるのを避けるためだったのだとしたら、それは恥ずべきことです。 2/4🤘🇯🇵

100

Astros Fans UK @astrosfansuk.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

アストロズがMLBポストシーズンから早々に敗退したことで、今井さんにとって不可解かつ奇妙なMLBでの1年目のシーズンも幕を閉じました。当初、彼は自信を持てずに苦しんでいる様子でしたが、それは驚くべきことでした。というのも、彼は時折、並外れた才能を持つ投手であることを証明していたからです。まるで自分自身を信じられていないかのようで、契約を結んだ直後にはあれほど意欲に満ち溢れていた姿を思うと、実に残念なことでした。1/4 🤘🇯🇵💫

Astros Fans UK @astrosfansuk.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

I’m not going anywhere, but next season - whenever that may be - I will definitely need to do the whole ‘work smarter, not harder’ thing to streamline & improve what content I put out without destroying myself in the process(!).

Astros Fans UK @astrosfansuk.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

It would be remiss of me not to thank everyone again who sent their best wishes back in August as well. I think this may have been the most brutal season ever, for me personally, in terms of the sheer volume of sleep deprivation.

I pour my entire heart & soul into running this to support the Astros, day in, day out at all hours in an effort to help connect & grow our Astros fanbase across the world. It’s always an honour & a privilege that I will never forget.

A new GM, a new manager, the trading of a couple of players fans would prefer not to see go & the reconstruction of swathes of our roster, notably the OF. Will lessons be learnt at the highest level of the club over the numerous mistakes made over the last 3 years? One can only hope. #Astros

Astros Fans UK @astrosfansuk.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Hopefully some genuine soul-searching & the desire to undergo real change & embarkn on an intelligent rebuild with some difficult decisions made that will serve us in good stead in the long run.

Astros Fans UK @astrosfansuk.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Taking the AL West division title was a crumb of comfort, but the brutal reality is that it was the worst division numerically of all time, with all its teams devoid of any kind of quality. What does the future hold for the Astros?

110

Astros Fans UK @astrosfansuk.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

A gruelling 2026 Astros season comes to an end with a bitterly disappointing swift postseason exit, in which the lightly papered over chasms of a dismally constructed roster were exposed & soberingly laid-bare for all to see.

AJ Blubaugh was poor as an opener, Joe Espada’s decision to use Bryan King in an early pressure situation mystifying, King’s outing saddening & then compounded by our offense largely disappearing for vast periods of the game.

A dispiriting loss to open the Wild Card series, as our postseason home hoodoo continues after a dreadful start to the game largely puts paid to us.

We experienced missing out on the postseason entirely last year for the first time in a long time & it didn’t feel good, did it? A lot of people have said over the years how the once-intimidating October crowd noise at Daikin Park has gradually diminished, well guess what?

Yes it’s a dreadful division but it is what it is. We’re in the dance &, regardless of our issues, I don’t think there’s anyone that actively wants to face the Astros in October in the AL.

Astros Fans UK @astrosfansuk.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Considering the sheer volume of challenges our roster went through this season, be it injuries or just the absurd way it was constructed - to battle through to the postseason is no mean feat.

Astros Fans UK @astrosfansuk.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Under the pressure of our entire season potentially slipping away, we saw arguably the most cohesive team performances of the season with our bats firing explosively & our pitching pulling together to nail the wins that we needed to seal the division. #Astros

The response from this team over the last 2 days, to what could have been a debilitating setback in the loss on Friday, has been sensational.

The @AstrosFansUK Player Of The Game powered by Texas Joe’s BBQ: Lucas Spence! On a day where everyone showed to seal the division title, Spence capped off a magnificent breakout series with a lead-doubling 2-RBI triple in the 3rd as we took full control, plus 3 walks. Congratulations Lucas! #Astros

Astros Fans UK @astrosfansuk.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Wesneski’s 7-inning outing was a godsend for our extraordinarily stretched bullpen & may yet prove to be the factor which decides the division, as in Game 162 we will need every single one of our arms.
