I hope Singleton’s figured it out last night is a sign of what he can do going forward. Realistically, he’s likely to perform closer to what he’s...
Maldy should not be a starting catcher (especially for a team that has other offensive gaps) and Dusty makes bad decisions. I still find posts...
I understand the intuition on the few games, but that isn't what the data I've seen shows. A big part of lineups that include...
Even that 2-3 games would be extreme. All the articles/studies I've read that try to answer this question generally show the same general...
Everything bad that happens to the Astros is Dusty's fault. Everything good that happens including potentially taking 2 of 3 from the best team...
No longer a quality start and now an ERA over 5 for the game....
Astros have 3 more against the Rangers this season. So as long as they keep it within 3 until then they control their own destiny.
Should have pinch hit, but Maldy is good at that psyche out stuff (when he crowded the plate and leaned in to get hit).

I’m can’t watch, but the radio guys said Abreu is warming up, so if the score holds I assume Abreu / Pressly.
1-2-3 innings when the Astros are pitching are fun!
Unless it’s supposed to be a bad joke, it’s got to be this.
If signing Chapman would guarantee another Astros WS, I think I’d still rather them not sign him. Maybe I’d think differently if they hadn’t just...
Yeah. I’d rather have Yuli at 1.2 million than Abreu tied up for three years at 19.5 (particularly if the money was used elsewhere). I’m also...
Apparently I was wrong.
I think Pressly is day to day and not playing today.
OK. The box score isn't currently showing that.
Ugh. Turn on the game to check the score and see Valdez has somehow given up 5 runs on only 3 hits and 1 walk with no errors....
He’s been worth about -1 WAR and has a 77 OPS+ from a premium offensive position. I don’t know if that’s serviceable. I’m not expecting much...
Including Brown in a deal for Verlander probably still leaves the Astros a better team this year and maybe a wash next year. This year the Astros...
