I just don't see how this can be intentional. We brought our high leverage reliever in the 8th to try to keep the score within striking distance...
For dominicanos (as well as puertoricans and cubans), "coño" is used more like a "damnit", in order to express more emphasis to whatever is being...
Reading that article really made my blood boil for all the times Dubon was leading off (while Altuve was injured) and Chas was stuck hitting 7 or...
Horrible jump by Dubon on that blooper (not sure if he would've been able to catch it anyway). Abreu should've gone to 2nd on the liner he...
That bottom of the lineup is brutal. Compounded by Abreu batting cleanup. I really really hope our front office takes over lineups during the...
Hans Niemman faints...
I don't take it as a taunt at all; I also see that he has been getting better at bats since coming off the IL, and yesterday he absolutely tore...
I know it's just conjecture, but I think the organization keeps trying with Abreu because of their big investment on him, and because of his track...
I really do hope you are right and that he is just running into bad luck. He has had much better at bats lately, so there is some hope. One other...
Let me elaborate so (perhaps) you can comprehend. Maldonado bad, Abreu bad. Yainer good. Maldonado has some magic that makes team think he is...
Ok.
He was getting reps there in spring training, but I have no idea what came of that. My guess is that they determined he was not ready for prime...
Honestly, I want Yainer playing at the expense of either Maldonado or Abreu. I'm just trying to be more realistic, since it's pretty clear that...
Although it might be too late at this point, in order to get Yainer in the lineup every day, he needs to get more reps at 1st base. We know...
I would have Abreu, who currently is 132 out of 138 players in OPS, hitting 7th. But at least Dubon, ranked 122/138 in OPS, is at the right spot...
Please baby jesus god of baseball, let Javier get his groove and mojo back starting today. And please exorcise whatever demon possessed our...
Man, we are all just stupefied by what we just witnessed, so we need to cut each other a lot of slack as we air our frustrations. Sure, we...
That Singleton PH is probably the worst managerial decision I've ever seen by an Astros manager in all my years watching this team. And that is...
Dusty has had head scratching lineups all throughout his tenure with the Astros, but this year, perhaps empowered by winning it all and "beating"...
Chas should be in the lineup hitting 5th, with Abreu at 7th. Another head-scratching lineup from Dusty in the middle of a tight race, but at...
