    Get him off the team. He’s stealing money. Yuli with another HR today.

    I seem to remember most on this board wanted to get rid of Yuli in the regular season...last year. Wanted Mancini to get the PT.

    Bregman and Abreu are killing HOU. Sit them or drop them to 7-8.

    And the half open shirt with no undershirt. You have to hit a little to be able to rock that look.

    We could use Yuli's locker room leadership right now for sure. The whole team respected him. I've heard Abreu is a real quiet guy.

    Abreu looks lost at the plate. It seems like we are just waiting for an automatic out. His defense at 1B is not good at all compared to Yuli. Seems like he is working on his beard nowadays than his game.

    I do not understand the relevance of Yuli in this discussion. This is about the Astros and Jose Abreu. Yuli has nothing to do with either.

    Welcome to un-undering a rock for 5 years

    Yuli has plenty to do with this

    Fans just gotta hope Abreu doesn't set the record for worst contract in baseball history

    Maybe the goatee grows

    He's actually better with men on than with men off.

    I can't explain it.

    Michael Brantley is playing First Base in some Games

    This is Interesting. Brantley a Singles Hitter being a Upgrade over Abreu

    This signing is scaring me for sure but it’s still early. I’m concerned but I’m not willing to call this a bad signing yet. Hopefully Abreu pulls himself out of this.

    Anyone complaining about Abreu better start looking at Bregman’s numbers too.
