K rate totally fine. BB rate totally fine. Exit velo totally fine. All plate discipline numbers totally fine. His barrel rate and hard hit...
I wonder how long it will be before a team gets a gigantic competitive advantage by being the first to effectively use AI to analyze video of...
Yordan’s luck has been ****. His xwOBA coming into tonight was .382 which is elite and just south of his career wOBA of .402.
I’m pretty sure Chas McCormick is a really weird mf. Not sure at all whether that’s in a good way or a bad way.
They just need to pull the trigger on one or more of the following: Playing Rodgers every day for a month to determine if the experiment worked....
Yes but I find it odd that they would abandon the Altuve in LF move. I’m actually curious how bad Dezenzo would be at 2B. Todays lineup aside,...
Any of Bregman, Polanco, or Arenado would look great in the everyday lineup in place of Rodgers/Dubon. Brown knew who to target.
Sure why not
I just feel like if they’re able to consistently beat these types of mediocre teams it means their lineup and pitching staff have settled in and...
Bold prediction: if the Astros win 5 of their next 6 series (Royals, Tigers, White Sox, Brewers, Reds, Royals), they will reach the World Series.
Managing the clubhouse/culture: 70% Lineups: 10% Bullpen usage: 10% Bench usage: 5% Face of the team: 5% I personally don’t think there’s a whole...
Dubin is probably strictly a RP at this point. I think every team should strive to have 3 pitchers they are comfortable starting in a playoff...
The development of Matthews and Melton over the next 60-80 days is probably very important to how the Astros will approach the deadline. Its very...
Definitely a reasonable take. But a lot of us probably saw Loperfido the same way you see Dezenzo, and there were some who saw Bloss as a dude...
It’s certainly a reasonable take. If the established bats get positive regression and Dezenzo/Rodgers get established, there’s really no need to...
I was apoplectic after the Kikuchi trade last year. That learned me a lesson. I trust Dana Brown.
If they’re willing to move Smith to CF this season, they could leave Nootbaar and Dezenzo out of the deal; Arrighetti and Ullola should be enough...
It’s tough. It’s way too early know who might be available and playing well. And All-Star might be a bad label, but it doesn’t feel specific...
So you think the Astros should just stand pat? Or trade away what little position player prospects they have?
Current deadline hope: Out: McCormick, 3 pitchers from this group: Arrighetti, Blubaugh, Ullola, Gusto, Blanco, Abreu In: an all-star LH bat who...
