    Yes? He was top 5 on the team in WAR before he went down. You'd be replacing .208 hitter with a .308 hitter and Gold Glove defense in CF.

    Yeah I wasn’t all that serious. Of course I want Jake back. Obviously, it won’t make a huge difference though.

    Reasons for optimism, Yordan is on fire right now and Meyers will be back soon. The bullpen pickups have been getting decent outcomes.

    Pessimism: Trammel and Smith in the same lineup. Walker and Altuve both being streaky and in slumps at the same time.

    Well yea he was being put out there for a trade but we had ZERO to match what AZ got. They got the Rangers #5,#9 and #13 prospects.

    both offense about to have a mid-off

    however, rangers have the upper hand because they have a better pitcher.

    Game is being televised on CW 39 for any Houstonians without Space City Home Network. Rangers broadcast though o_O

    Caratini seems all business without the dramatics. I like that.
