[Official] Astros @ Braves

Abreu needs rest regardless of his production

The team should schedule 20 DH games and 20 rest days for him throughout the season

 

You would think Yanier would get the start with the quick turnaround time from the last game. Wouldn’t be surprised if Maldy would feel threatened and throw a fit like he did in the off-season.

 

i will never understand this. maldy, you're not late 20s or early 30s anymore. you're on the tell end of your career.........young guys will take your position eventually.

throw a fit....c'mon mayne

 

Tucker caught flat-footed on Acuna's tag up

Javier finishes the inning next batter though

 

That sucked.

 

Fried's advanced stats suggest he has gotten a bit lucky with guys on base. That play would support it.

 

Let's check in on the "What if we had signed Willson Contreras?".

I'll use the stats of Julks and Diaz as a comp, since the plan would have been to stick him in left field if he wasn't playing backup catcher.

Julks/Diaz: 76 ABs, 14 R, 2 HR, 8 RBI, .289

Contreras: 77 ABs, 11 R, 2 HR, 10 RBI, .279

Hmmmmm.....

 

Good job Peña. You slut.

 

Hensley has just been bad. Should’ve had Julks here…

 

Hensley should be one of the first ones to be sent back to the minors when regulars start coming back.

 

Maldy is a b****.

 

Lol nice ****ing job with the lineup Dusty

 

Could’ve had both playing at the same time…

 

He's been horrendous.

 

Maldy would have demanded a trade.

 

Umps stole an OUT and baserunner

Tucker ends up stranded at third

Hensley still sucking

 

At least Hensley got to touch Meg the Stallion 's ass before being sent down for good..

 

Who would want him?

 

WHY IS MALDY STARTING?

 

I'm not sure if you're implying Dusty would have allowed Contreras to take over as starting catcher. If you are, then you're clearly not paying attention.
