I'd say the odds went way up for an immediate call-up with Diaz going down.
Another great defensive play by Jake. 2 hard hit balls for outs to start the game.
It's time to play Jake full-time. We at least need to see if his new batting stance can translate to full-time success. Brantley can DH full-time...
Agreed. I don't think he would need that much versatility though. If he could just add MI to his repertoire, that would be a huge bonus.
I like this. Straw could usurp the longterm Marwin role if he could learn to work the IF.
Key word is “may”. I’m just saying we might want to see Bregman as that generational piece you were referencing.

I asked Larry the GM and he said it raises the AAV this year. Sportrac has our salary at 200 mil this season. It will be interesting to see if...
Does Bregman’s AAV increase this year, or next?
This is an awesome night to be an Astros fan! Now—what is our team salary at for this year? Have we nearly exhausted our luxury cap?
This is a critically important move by Luhnow and company. Rock-solid extension for one our most important impending FAs.
Use eBay. Prices are much better. You could go with the classic rainbow Nolan Ryan jersey, or a more modern Altuve one. I would start with one...
Agreed. I’m just tired of the guy jumping all over me when he doesn’t agree with me posts. Sorry you guys had to read all that.
