[IMG] If you think MLB umpires are bad, just be glad you don't have Class A umpires. This is probably partly the reason why Hansen had 4 BBs. This...
This lineup vs Hamels flashes me back to the Express having Jamie Ritchie pitching the top of the 12th inning in a tie game. I can't imagine Cole...
If the Astros offense struggles without Springer, and Tucker continues what he’s doing, it’s going to be interesting seeing the FO justify keeping...
110% agreed on FO. 2017: 123 days 2013: 122 days 2010: 122 days We’re at 128 days now I believe. It hasn’t been lower than 122 days in 10 years....
https://www.crawfishboxes.com/2019/5/17/18629475/what-in-gods-name-is-super-2 Not freaking out this past week, just prepping (coping) for...
First the wild run of injuries... Altuve, then Diaz, Springer, Stassi, then Diaz again. I wouldn't count Stassi as detrimental to the offense,...
Well, I certainly agree it's not just baseball that's affecting Altuve IMO. Imagine the pressure of a team guy like Altuve, who now has a...
Since Tucker had 51 days last year, I would simply add 51 days after when the FO feels safe bringing up Alvarez... to avoid Super 2. [That means...

Not saying it'll last, but the Twins currently have the best record in baseball and on pace for a record # of HRs for the year. Be careful of what...
In a perfect world for the FO, Fisher would have a monster couple of months, keep the runs and wins coming while Springer's down, and get traded...
Agreed he has the hottest bat, but if the Astros wait until the trade deadline to call up Tucker, they avoid Super 2 and save a potential $20M....
IF Springer is going on IR, and by all means I hope he doesn't (it sure didn't look good), Alvarez may have blown his shot at getting a temporary...
Nice catch prospecthugger. Just the fact that he's saying it could be a two-season adjustment indicates how significant it is.
I don't know if this guy is legitimate or not, but he's worked with MLB players, which is more than many of us can say: http://chrisoleary.com. I...
Obviously no one here knows what's the deal w/ Whitley, but from what I gather: - He's had detailed reports in the past by so-called injury...
Alvarez knows exactly what the situation is. The Astros will be at the luxury tax for years so they can’t afford a Super 2. One estimate is they...
From the article tellitlikeitis just posted: Nice article. They switched him to starter last offseason, but if he ultimately becomes a reliever...
The article excerpt I shared stated they used it 13 times this year with better results than when they don’t, and that half the teams have tried it.
Maybe we're talking about two different things, but I'm referring to what this article is referring to. Anyway, I'd be totally supportive of a...
