I think more or less out on Gusto as a SP at this point (although he could still be a very good reliever), but if the Astros can find something...
His slider is very good, and his fastball isn't as bad as it would appear given its limited velocity. I think he needs to further develop his...
Colton Gordon has been surprisingly effective in his time so far. Probably can’t maintain it, but he’s at least showing what it would look like...
Gonna need Gordon, Gusto, Walter, and/or Blubaugh to step up bigly. Unreal how many devastating pitching injuries they have had over the past few...
Really odd pitch mix. Throws a really hard slider, an upper 80s heater, and a low 90s change.
Paredes, Peña, and Meyers really carrying the team.
Super ****ing impressive outing for Gordon.
Dubin looks damn good this year.
I wish they would send Smith down so he can get regular work. Send him down and bring him up once he's started destroying PCL pitching for a...
Feels like some of this has been bad luck though. Through May 16th the Astros had five regular players with an xwOBA>.330. Paredes has really...
He has the highest ceiling on the team outside of Alvarez as a hitter, imo. If he could lift the ball a little more often he could do tremendous...
Since April 7, Dezenzo has the second best xwOBA on the team following Alvarez. Jake Meyers is third on that list while both Walker and Altuve...
Outside of the LMJ meltdown it was a solid series. Really impressive performance by Blanco. Thought he would fall off hard this season but he...
Click could have handled the end of this tenure more professionally, and I'm sure he has some regrets regarding his time here. However, a lot of...
Agreed, you either go all in on a player you love for the remainder of their prime or you stick to Ks small enough that they can't really hurt you...
to be fair, the story goes that Click originally wanted to trade Urquidy but Crane killed the deal, which in hindsight would have been a great...
Limited in that he plays a position of limited defensive value so if he stops hitting he starts creating a lot of negative value.
Gotta love the strategy of being too risk averse to pursue topline free agents so instead you sign guys in their mid 30s with limited tools to...
I think things would look a lot better if Altuve and Alvarez had been doing their part. Alvarez will come around but who knows with Altuve being...
Altuve to DH, OF of Dezenzo/Meyers/Smith. Do it, Espada!
