Altuve needs to get back quick especially if Diaz is out...our lineup is going to start getting ugly outside of the 2-4 spots.
Astros are so worried about an extra year of Free Agency when you are playing to win now. Why don't I hear the same b****ing about the Rockets' Luxury tax avoidance and the Texans' lack of Free Agent spending from people in this section? It is STUPID. You have injuries and you have a player at DH who shouldn't be playing. You have the THE ANSWER wasting away at AAA.
It’s time for an electronic strike zone. Just absurd. It happens every day multiple times in every game against both teams. Let’s just get the damn ball/strike calls right.
While every other major sport expands replay MLB still continues to rely on 19th century technology of having the HP umpire try to eyeball it and make a determination. How ridiculous.
Astros are playing to win in October, not May. The Rockets' and Texans' examples are season-long issues. The Astros' example is about a few weeks.
Astros don't gain an extra year of free agency, it's just that one of the team controlled years wouldn't be subject to arbitration. But as we see with the Bregman deal the Astros are willing to buy out those years on certain players.
