    Abreu has a chiseled face and looks like a lady killer. He is in fact, a mood killer, for sure.

    I would send Abreu down to Corpus for a little while. He's not ready and why burn his service time for that?

    A lot of teams are having trouble hitting with and without RISP.

    Short "spring". Lots of pitching changes. While the Astros sign stealing system wasn't very effective, there is a chance other teams were better at it, but scrapped it after seeing the Astros punishment.

    Ironic that he was on the ALCS roster last year.

    I really think the lack of spring training and getting their arms loose is impacting things thus far. Same with Josh James. These guys were throwing in high leverage situations in the highest of pressure last year. They didn't just allofasudden forget how to throw.

    I call total shennanigans and bullsh!t on those stats, about the percentages and runners scoring from what base and what outs and whatnot.

    Never mentioned the inning.
