I would switch Abreu and Peña in the lineup. I slept 2 hours before this one. I’m watching it. I may regret this.
Chas says he is healthy... but Dusty is on record saying he always gives players one extra day of rest after saying they are healthy.
We all have differing opinions and views on the who and what is to blame for where we are right now but FFS we’re all fans of this team so lets all pull the same direction and get the ****ing win tonight……ok **** it, you do you and I’ll see you on the other side…..
This is why I said the org, Brown was a bad hire and every move they made previous to Brown was also bad..... Every single move has been a negative on this team. Not a single move made The Astros better. Its not surprising they are in this position after so many poor decisions.
I listened to the game on the radio Monday. Figured I'd do the same yesterday, that didn't get the W I Radio is less stress. I will watch it. This could be it. Best of luck to all. See y'all on the other side win or lose.
One of the many things you don't consider is, if Diaz is playing catcher instead of DH, not only does his offense increase dramatically, but the Astros could very likely replace his .600 OPS at DH with a more productive player at DH. Chas is hitting 1.181 at DH this season, 1.000 last year, and .833 his rookie season. Small sample size, true, but surely Dusty knows the stats regardless, right. He used stats to justify Singleton PH'ing over Chas hitting vs NYY. Surely he knows the stats. Stats. Stats. Stats. Singleton doesn't have any long-term numbers to equate anything, especially considering this context. Dusty's premise of "Maldy must play" has a domino effect of 5+ situations. And none of those situations coincide with victories. I can name those 5+ if you want.....
I need a mother ****ing win tonite if Chas is hurt ok. No idea why Diaz is out but that sucks. Need a Framber gem
Hey Framber. If you EVER want to be the elite pitcher that makes the mega bucks.... today is a good day to show you're worth it. 6 Innings, 1 run... let's go!
