    Yes it has. Making outs is more important than not making errors. He's (actually not) fielded two balls off the ground sloppily and missed a diving play most CFs would have let the run score without an attempt(not ruled an error). He's made up for those 3 plays with making a few great plays defensively.

    And he had a ball bounce out of his glove too and it was scored a hit. Im not gonna argue too hard about this because I like Jake and want him to succeed. Also, I know what I have been looking at for a month now. His play in CF right now needs improvement. Im sure he’ll get there. I think a good deal of it is nerves about his injury.

    Why do I give a **** if you like me or not?

    The fact that you think I care what a random like you thinks about me is arrogant in itself.

    The fact that you think it matters that people like you on a message board says a lot about you, if I bother you that much put me on ignore.

    I have plenty of people who like what I say so you can.

    Justin Verlander is a consummate professional and I hope he retires an Astro.

    Julio Rodriguez hit 81 homeruns in the derby which was the most but didn't win. According to Clutchfans who didn't want Yordon to participate even before the injury, apparently now Julio will be too tired after the all star break, his swing will be ruined, and he'll slump....so advantage Astros who play Seattle 7 out of 10 games?

    He just wanted to make sure he didn’t show up his new teammate Castillo. 4D chess.
