I put a very detailed post(s) about who I think should be playing and how much vs LHP and RHP in the favorite lineups " topic. FTR my thoughts have always been that Vazquez was replacing Castro so won't play much. But I hope he plays more vs RHP Maldonado is 6th on the team in OOS vs LHP and has been very good for well over a month now. There is no reason to complain about Maldy starting vs LHP but not RHP. hopefully once he is better acclimated to the pitchers Vazquez will catch more. But I'm not holding my breath.
So you think batting average is everything and working with pitchers means nothing? Ya'll look at the genius who has figured it all out. We out here 30 games over 500 and ya'll still be b****ing.
Have you seen the b****ing the last couple of pages? And you and your likers are idiots. So Click is a dumbass as well right?
Stop with the aggression toward one another. It’s stupid. We are way out in first place. This isn’t the political board, where immature name calling is appropriate.
Agreed. A reminder to everyone else. This is the game thread. Talk about the games in here. If you want to argue or b**** find the appropriate thread for that or even better go to the D&D forum and create a thread called "Let's Argue About the Astros" and have it out. If the nonsense continues here, there will be people that lose access to this forum.
I just want somewhere between an even split and one game a series with Vasquez catching. It that too much to ask?
Not at all. I hope Vazquez gets a start this series. I entered possible starts the rest of this month and came up with 18 for Maldy and 7 for Vazquez.
Maldonado again? Dusty is fing hopeless... And here we were thinking that losing Hinch and Luhnow was the punishment... The real punishment was putting Dusty on this team... This man never dissapoints in dissapoiting us Astros fans..... What a joke, thanks MLB....
Don't you complain when Baker "benches" the hitter who had a good game? Maldonado had a double, HR and 3 RBI. Based on Baker "always benching" the hot hitter shouldn't you be happy Maldonado is starting?
I sort of understand why Click did not make a big move for Bell or Contreras.... Dusty would have played Meyers and Maldonado over them...
Dusty said several days ago that Christians next start would be when Garica pitched. They were never ever, never, never, ever, ever, never looking to replace Maldy for a new regular starter. They just now have the luxury of giving Maldy 2, sometimes 3 days off a week instead of 1.
Vazquez was always a replacement for Castro not Maldy If you thought differently you were kidding yourself.
