    Worse than Maldy? Abreu currently hitting .078 and Maldy at .061.

    Can't believe we almost won a WS last year with both on the team.

    Time to move on and bring someone else up than can be an asset rather than a liability at first base.

    Why would they intentionally walk a hitter in extra innings to get to the league rbi leader.

    Maldy is a catcher and supposedly brings "intangibles" to the table...Abreu brings absolutely nothing.

    One more out, Seth.

    Get it before the score.

    Eta- DAMN

    If we keep it ONE run, Astros should at least get ONE too. Right? Riiight????

    Because lefties have a .291/.390/.418 slash line against him in the MLB for his career?

    His intangibles are not looking very good this year with CWS. The gig is about up on his intangibles.

    Hard to fathom that out of our first 20 games we will have lost 14 of them.

    I'm confused, didn't we get the best closer in baseball, and along with the very good closer we already had, weren't we supposed to be dominating going into the 8th?

    The non Blanco Astros are now 3-14.

    That's insane.

    Maldy can call an okay game and has demonstrated locker-room leadership. Not saying we should've kept him but he's better than Abreu at this point.
