I am sorta getting used to Houston operating a home for aging first basemen but I would not be opposed to bringing in a youngster next time it...
When your manager is just a guy your team is just a bunch of guys.
Just because other teams are asking does not mean the Astros must be receptive.
Rodgers is our starter at 2nd base. Not sure what that has to do with Chas and Dezenzo in the outfield.
I am more optimistic about where it looks like we will stand at the break than I have been in many seasons. You all seem to be too. Looking for a...
Starters 6 F Valdez*, H Brown, S Arrighetti, H Wesneski, R Blanco, T Ivey If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. Add one starter to reduce the workload....

I think there was hope for Mathews from Spring but he really seems unlikely till next season in my opinion. It will be interesting to see what...
Not cooked but you can see it coming. I think his bat will hold up far longer than his ability to play defense. I stand by him being relegated to...
I like Rodgers a lot and expect him to improve at second base to the point of keeping the job till Matthews is 100% ready.
We all knew it was coming sooner or later. He is going to have to play from the bench for years or retire early. A bench bat who can play a little...
