Paredes double play ball was hit 104mph and had an xBA of .560.
Having been to several minor league games where this is in practice I’d say it works well and I’m a fan.
Those guys didn’t play very well and Guillorme had like 20 at bats. Paredes got hurt and the bullpen got a lot worse with injuries (Hader and...
Your optimism is nice, but even if the Astros went 6-0, Seattle would have to go 2-4 for the Astros to win the division. Realistically they need...
The Astros still technically control their own destiny, but nothing post all star break makes me think they’ll turn it around. Seattle was...
Cleveland and Detroit both lost today.
The Tigers have a 3 game series with the Guardians. So that’s at least three losses across those teams. If the Astros take care of business in...
Sanchez hit a ball 400 feet with 105mph EV.
Both home runs were on good pitches (or a good pitch and one out of the zone).
Maybe an asterisk for Lance being “hurt”.
I’d bet against him being fired or getting manager of the year (even if the Astros win the division).
Add a healthy Alvarez in LF and this would be a really strong lineup. That ankle injury sucks. I like Walker in the 6th spot much better than...
I agree 2019 was top heavy pitching but had the an insane position player mix and still very good pitching. The pitching bWAR of 2022 was 23.7....
I’d say the 2018 and 2019 teams were better than the two teams that ultimately won the WS. The 2018 had better pitching depth, but the 2019 team...
The Astros should focus on winning. They control their own destiny for the division. If the Guardians win then it improves the Astros chance of...
Don’t disrespect the Astros career leader in World Series wins :).
I’d love for them to get a 2 seed and a bye. It’s possible but unlikely. The Rangers aren’t mathematically eliminated, but they’re 6 games back...
The bad news is it’s 2 in the loss column and Detroit has the tie breaker, so it’s more like a 3 game deficit to make up.
Nice quick bounce back inning from Javier putting deGrom back out there quickly.
A quick 8 pitch 1-2-3 inning letting DeGrom recover.
