In David Eckstein's wildest dreams he never hit as well as Altuve did this year in Double A. And Eckstein was 3 years older when he passed...
What if we kept Altuve and those guys down another two years....then we could just flash forward 4/5 years down the line from then and ask the...
And Billy Beane has led the Athletics to exactly one winning record in the last seven years. Maybe he should break out his gut more often.
What does your gut tell you about Mier's potential prospects as a major league ballplayers Nick? Honest question here, not trying to be funny.
Yeah, but to be that putrid at the plate, he really would have needed to be at a point where he wouldn't need to show that much improvement on...
Seriously? You realize over a 10 year career that Walton averaged 46 games per year, 13 points and ten rebounds.... Hell, he's more comparable...
I don't doubt that Deshields still works into the Astros plans in a big way down the line. At this point, Mier is older and a level behind...
The disturbing trend is how quickly the 1st round picks sink down the overall list. Mier was considered a top 3 prospect after he was drafted and...
Chris Johnson is probably the worst defensive third baseman in the league, so if Paredes is worse than that I would be shocked. I like an...

Chase sure strikes out a lot though. Telvin Nash with the walk off homer. Opposite Field Shot
Jason Hirsh was another one that was super tall with not much velocity. 6'8" I believe. Arauz's height isn't what makes me think he will throw...
Anyone get the MILB.TV package? Is it worth it? How often do they show each of the Astros affiliates? Good video quality. The price is so...
Maybe if they cut off unemployment and welfare, then these jobs won't seem so bad for the wages. That's the problem. You can't just take step...
Yeah I guess it's a chicken or the egg type thing. Are they really misjudging the talent or are they not developing it. Everyone says they...
Eight best players period I guess lol The fact that we don't have a prospect in the system now that would have cracked the top 10 back then is...
Just noticed Hidalgo, Russ Johnson and Chris Truby were in there as well.
Just looked at that 1998 New Orleans roster on baseball-reference. Man we had a lot of young talent back then. Meluskey, Berkman, Guillen, Ward,...
