    You mean cut a month ago? Abreu is going to drag down the infield defense by a lot... Singleton is not Bags, Berkman, or Yuli, but he would not torpedo the defense stats of Altuve, Bregman, and Pena...

    Then that means the manager is weak.

    Better take that down Astros. Whoever is the safety on the Texans is likely already offended

    The Loperfido Era is lasting as long as the Age of Ultron.

    There are spots on the roster where loperfido could play.
    There is clearly something about his game they don’t like.
    I’d rather they trade him then treat him this way.

    Or they are afraid how he may outperform half the team just like how they pulled a post praising Yainer last year when he outperformed Maldy.

    They can't have the guy that would replace Abreu on the roster with Abreu, it might hurt his feelings if the replacement did well (even if he played the outfield).

    Until Crane decides to pull the plug on Abreu, Espada can not undermine his owner by treating him like the drain that he is.

    That includes PH for him because hitting is what he is supposed to be bringing to this team.

    Until Crane says "uncle" this team will continue to be what it is.
