    Speaking of Maldy, he’s up to .113. He’s laughing at Abreu.

    There's no such thing as full time catching anymore.

    The fact that Maldonado played that many games last year as catcher was a major problem. Even realmuto didn't play that many games.

    People were not criticizing Dusty with the intention of Diaz not playing full time.

    Dusty played Abreu at cleanup for months when he was the worst hitter in MLB. Dusty’s lineups were a fkn joke last season.

    The narrative that Dusty did a good job last season is ridiculous. He was awful. The Astros got into the playoffs out of luck. The Mariners and Rangers could have easily buried them but thankfully lost every time the Astros did down the stretch, which was often. The Royals sweep at home where they could have secured the spot, and maybe even an A’s sweep if I remember correctly, was embarrassingly bad.

    No catcher catches all 162 games of the season. You knew that right?

    HAHAHA!

    No catcher plays every game in MLB. None. Zero.

    Are you new to the game?

    What catcher starts every game? You really don’t know the game. You love when the Astros lose. You give Espada zero leeway because you want him to fail. Somehow you think if Espada fails it will erase how awful Dusty was last year. It won’t.

    you are a racist dipshit

    My bad I forgot. It’s only certain pitchers don’t want Diaz catching them just like last year lmao

    Every single post of yours is pure, unadulterated stupidity.

    Absolute no-show tonight. Swinging at first pitches all night.

    Fans deserve a refund.
