Honestly, even though I put my two cents in as well, I'm getting so tired of these subjective awards in all sports, particularly "Most Valuable...
Totally agree, and that should not be lost on voters. The Astros have been positively starved for infielders because of injuries this year....
After tonight, Bregs is now slashing .297 .416 .575 .992. The absolute numbers between him and Trout are pretty similar. Bregs has played a few...
Seriously. I watched and posted about a video last season that gave a very informative rundown of his career and how he developed multiple...
I do like his honesty. He was definitely out there at the plate and on the basepaths to make things happen, and some it of it might have been a...
Unsurprising. Harden is always adding new tools; it's what he does and what makes him a transcendent player. His obvious weakest part last year...
I thought Nene could have been used much more effectively last year. I thought he might be able to distribute from the high post in certain...
I also hate wimpy. Happens too often with the Astros. As far as I'm concerned, all of the talk about Springer's hamstring in this thread is...
Shitty call on that third strike on Yuli. Lot of shitty ball-strike calls tonight. Still, it was basically just euthanizing a team that was...
Run support certainly helps. In all the wins he's notched this year, his team has scored at least 3 runs. And in only three of those games was...
I'm not sure what "MVP" means in MLB. In the NBA, we know it means absolutely nothing, and in the NFL, it means "Best QB." Considering how many...

Nice, Bregs. No way he hits it that far with his swing earlier in the season. Astros love hitting to dead center in this park.
Toro's hustle is going to keep him around long enough to start getting settled in to major league batting. Pay attention, Tucker.
As we'd say in high school, "Hit the weight room, Diaz." (Use the Springer workout.)
Of the 15 Player/Pitcher/Rookie of the Month awards given out in the AL this year, the Astros have taken 7 of the 15. (Yordan: June, July,...
AL Player of the Month in August: Alex Bregman AL Rookie of the Month in August: Yordan Alvarez (for the third straight month)
Based on his batting avg this year, .271, Greinke ought to be batting 5th tonight.
Will have to read it. Reposting from the game thread: https://www.mlb.com/news/most-dominant-no-hitters "Verlander's no-no among most dominant...
I've spoken in the past about how it's interesting to have a more diverse closer than your standard power fastball + power slider closer. When...
