Is Luis Garcia a good fielder at 2B? I think that's a pretty critical factor in that proposed trade.
Anderson Areinamo started July by hitting the go ahead HR in the top of the 9th. He went 3-5 with a 2B, HR, BB and 2 SB. He's now leading Astros...
Ultimately, pro sports are an entertainment industry, not a winning industry. The Olympics test the limits of human capabilities, pro sports make...
I wouldn't be surprised if there were some people in the media that were critical of the Yankees when they acquired Chapman (and the Cubs as well,...
That's fair. I think some teams will be more likely to game the draft less as it gets more complex to do so. The other change is that the 3rd...
I'm not sure I really recognized the fact that the draft was shortened to 2 days until now. Typically, 11th round picks have been among the most...
Yay, statcast data for Fleury! I'm interested to see how he handles the hitter friendly environment. Given his track record of throwing strikes,...
Nice to see what some of the players currently look like, thanks for sharing. I think that's Sami Manzueta taking a strike in the 3rd video on...
Arenaimo also stole 2 bases. He's just the second Astros DSL hitter to have multiple HRs. 18 y/o catcher Luis de Leon, who is having a solid...
Bummer. I think he's got solid potential as a reliever. Averaged about 95 when he made a few AAA appearances last year and has very good strikeout...
With how RH the Astros are, maybe they should send lefty reliever to a team they might see in the postseason. I'm not sure I'd worry too much...
Okert might be an underrated trade chip. He's arguably the 4th best lefty in the pen while also being the oldest and under the least control. He...
Between Millan, Manzueta, and Alvarez, the 3 top hitters the Astros signed this year have OPS around .850 right now. One of my hopes for Dana...
I believe the rule 5 clock moves back a year after the DSL season ends, so there's some incentive for teams to wait to sign players rather than...
The catcher everyone was wanting to see in AA, Garret Guillemette, homered in his first game as a Hook. Other promotions this week included...
I'm not sure they'd really even need the 1st pick to go underslot to get a Forcucci/Jaworsky type at 95. Forcucci basically got their 5% overage...
I was looking over the Braves and Astros draft picks recently and it looks like Brown took a first round pitcher the last 2 drafts he ran in ATL....
Looks like Hector Salas got promoted to Fayetteville. He's played well on the complexes, but that's been driven by taking a lot of walks. It'll be...
A notable beard.
I'm pretty sure that curve was actually a change up that was misclassified. Not too many guys throw a curve with a spin rate less than 1000 rpm or...
