I remember. I was one of them. But I was wrong because: Arrighetti didn't take the step I hoped, Blanco has regressed, McCullers is not...
Pitcher injuries are exactly why I am so opposed to extensions for pitchers and want them traded when it is feasible. However to do that, a team...
A win is a win
Astros gotta trade something. They have no position players worth enough to get anything of consequence.
Cool.
If Alvarez misses too much time none of it matters.
Ok. I'm going to stop responding to this now. Go Astros.
I actually think all Melton needs to do is stay healthy. If he does, and the Astros don't get another LH bat, I think he gets promoted around the...
But they won't do that to Altuve. They won't say " I know how much you like it, how energized you have been, and how hard you have worked...
I simply don't see any scenario where Altuve ever plays more than 30ish% of his games at 2b ever again. He is an outfielder. Playing there less...
IMO Maldy/Diaz and Chas/? can't really be compared. 1) The reasons given to play Maldy over Diaz were unable to be debunked. The reasons to sit...
I respect that opinion and I didn't want to watch him either. I'm just saying maybe the pros know something I don't so I wasn't screaming that...
He was the starting 1b for 6 consecutive ALCS or better teams. I switched to wRC+ eventhough its a bit kinder to Yuli than OPS+ because it's...
I really hate that we are still talking about this. Fans think Maldy was awful here. Pitchers thought Maldy was great. People inside the Astro...
Yuli had 550+ PAs in 5 different seasons as the starting 1b. He had over 18 HR once He had over 85 RBI once He was a perfectly good 5th or 6th...
Smith's swing and miss is just part of the growing pains that the Astros decided will be at the MLB level instead of AA. The Astros would benefit...
Your fan bias is showing. Yuli's OPS+ in even seasons as an Astro: 86,105, 77, 85 I would argue that ANY 1b must have an OPS+ of at least 110...
Obviously, below average production is not good anywhere, but positions only matter due to the skillet involved and potential of the options to...
I actually agree with the 6 man rotation. Now, it can be argued that you keep Framber on the 5 man schedule and adjust others, but the concept...
I still love this pitching
