Interesting article that really puts Bagwell’s 94 season in perspective:...
Arrighetti had shown dominant streaks, but also equally bad streaks. He’s only 26, so definitely not worth giving up on, but not someone we can...
Starting pitching is still a huge problem. I hope Imai settles down. Even when they’ve been winning, they’re constantly down early. At this point...
Europe on the whole has better labor protection than the US, but Germany is an outlier even for Europe in terms of labor protection laws. There...
In June (through yesterday) the Astros have a 100 wrc+ and are 16th in run scores. So basically average offense. The starting pitching has had...
Arrighetti definitely on the bad side of being streaky right now. Oh well. They don’t need to win every game, just keep winning series.
I’m not fully bought in on the pitching yet, but yeah the potential is there when it clicks. I’m closer on Imai because of the track record...
They wouldn’t fully be in control because they’re a game behind in the loss column to all the other teams also in third. Still amazing and the...
Bad call on the first pitch to Bryce, but probably would not have mattered even if it was called correctly
He led off the game with a double and scored the first run. So I think we can give him a break today.
The problem with sitting Walker and Altuve is they are the 3rd and 5th best hitters on the team right now. Paredes could shift to first, but...
Hunter with an off night, but overall the pitching staff kept the game close enough. That could have easily been a blowout by the Jays. Gotta...
Diaz is below replacement level this year.
85 pitches through 3 innings :eek:
The ball Diaz hit would have been a double play anyway.
OK. I didn’t say Hunter Brown wouldn’t be a big improvement only that one pitcher can’t solve the Astros current pitching problems or turn them...
It wouldn’t fix the bullpen and as bad as Burrows removing his team leading innings pitched would put even more pressure on the bullpen....
This team’s pitching has been terrible and Hunter Brown returning can’t solve that. Despite running out a AAAA lineup most nights, their offense...
It’s not an either or. Espada is not a good manager and this team has some major roster construction issues and no depth.
Great job Joe. Bring in the guy for the third time in four days after he just threw almost 30 pitches last night at the highest leverage part of...
