I did read he was up to 97 mph with his fb so I think he’s another big velo guy with lacking control.
No.
I think most people understand this roster is not on par with some of the better rosters Houston has fielded over the last ten years, but we also...
Bullshit. Their bullpen has been very good. Espada utterly ****ed the pooch running out their worst one for a 2nd inning because he wanted to...
I don’t know enough about all the potential candidates to have had an opinion when he was hired. The existing players seemed to be legitimately...
****ing Espada. Can’t make ANY tough decisions because he’s scared of not being liked. Instead he’s gonna end up being hated. Can’t stick...
He’s lost me too. Guy is a minor league manager or bench coach. No business being the big league boss.
The logic for leaving Contreras in for that 2nd inning evades me. The guy has sucked, was coming off a chaotic couple of days of being sent down...
If the Astros lose this is 2 losses 100% on Espada. wtf.

Brown is looking like a badass.
I’ve been very pleased with how Smith has looked in RF, he could settle in as a plus defender there, in which case LF is the only spot where...
Good news but he still won’t be back for 2 months.
Agree. To dump $3M after getting a few quality innings out of him, and open a spot for another optionable arm is a win.
Rodgers Meyers and Smith should play everyday until they all 3 have at least 150 plate appearances.
Astros covering all but about $3M of Montero’s contract, I’d guess Montero was only worth about that much, so I will be very surprised if Houston...
Bullpen in ok shape considering they have had 2 recent extra inning games. VanWey, Contreras, Sousa, and Abreu come into today fresh and Okert...
New season, new thread. Trade deadline still 3+ months away but looking like the Astros will need to add a bat. Here’s an idea: Astros get:...
Brendan Donovan seems like an ideal fit if he’s at all available. Not a stolen base guy but never strikes out and gets on base a ton. Can play...
Number of 40 man roster players currently on the injured list: Rangers 4 Astros 10 Mariners 5 Yankees 10
