While Walter's start was a big letdown, I was actually impressed with Gusto yesterday. He has been tinkering with his pitch mix and I think he...
Homers are unfortunate, but another solid outing from Gusto. He seems to have made some adjustments since his first few starts laying off his...
Clemens is interesting. Hasn't hit for **** prior to this season but looks like a completely different guy at the plat this year.
Is Brandon Walter the third best SP on the team right now? What an absolutely brilliant acquisition by the org on a minor league deal of all...
Nice thing about limiting walks is that homers and XBHs often do less damage.
I think Dezenzo would have out performed Walker so far at 1B although that’s not gong to happen. Hell they could swap 1B between Catarini and...
Projection systems now have both Gordon and Walter pegged as 2+ WAR full season SPs. Would be wild if the Astros found another pair of good SPs...
Walter needs to be in the rotation moving forward. Send Gusto back to the pen.
Cal Raleigh should easily be in the MVP conversation though.
Colton Gordon is on a 4 WAR full season pace through his first 24 IP. Not bad at all. Also, the change they need to make is to let Walter take...
When did Walter last pitch?
Lance out pitching boy wonder and yall were saying he’s cooked.
They probably will bring in somebody (maybe not a SP3 though), but part of me hopes they gamble it. Walter deserves some starts. Even after his...
More than anything, the guy needs regular work. I can't imagine how difficult it must be for someone with his limited MLB experience to only play...
After a very slow start, I really like where Yainer is at now in his hitting. Over his last 50 PA he has a 8BB% and 18K% and has avoided GBs...
I can't see them selling as long as they are in contention to win the division, and they don't need Alvarez to do that. Maybe they'll have more...
Great start by McCullers. He seems to be coming around.
Didn't see this posted yet: https://blogs.fangraphs.com/christian-walker-hasnt-fixed-the-astros-first-base-problem/ While he has been unlucky,...
I love this pen so much. Guys like King, Ort, and Okert are not flashy at all and most fans probably don't even know who they are but they just...
I think his slider is definitely a put away pitch (120+ Stuff+ with plenty of whiffs), but being a slider it's going to have a big handedness...
