    Astros with a little swagger now, been a long frustratingt summer until recently. Will the road series against the Rangers prove the turning point?

    Chas gets no respect. Even the fans can’t get his name right after 2.5 seasons. Unfortunate.

    It's 2024.

    Raise your hand if you have supreme confidence that Yainier Diaz will be our opening day starter at catcher and for the entire season.

    How difficult it is to pronounce? I don't get it.

    I’ve tried correcting people but most still just refuse to say or spell his name correctly.

    They are trying to be like Dusty I guess, and just never give the man his due.

    An MRI means it is serious. I am waiting for the Chandler Rome bomb where he is out for 6-8 weeks. :(

    Yeah, Dusty keeps getting his name wrong on the lineup everyday. It keeps trying to spell it "Corey."

    Diaz is on a 550 at-bat pace of 34 home runs.

    That's him playing catcher everyday next year and some DH.

    C'mon, JP, they may never give you the run support again if you give it up.

    He'll get everyday at bats as catcher, DH, and occasional 1st Base. As long as Lee isn't traded, they may want to split catching duties between those two to start the season.
