    He probably will make small moves and hopefully that will be enough.

    I doubt there's going to be any Luhnow type moves, you know, adding JV/Greinke etc... Heck Luhnow even added Maldy once at the deadline. I thought adding a catcher by trade in season couldn't be doi. I tried to tell everybody last year that signing Maldy,Castro BOTH to two year deals was a bad idea and was called a Click hater.

    I love that twitter has these different, extremely specific statbots, like this one made just for outs that had an expected batting average over .800.

    If Diaz is called up it will be to play 1st base.

    They must not take where in the park it's hit into their calculations.

    Three perfect innings and 5 strikeouts for Forrest Whitley tonight.

    Misael Tamarez vs. Frisco: 5.2 IP, 2 H (solo HR allowed), 2 R (1 ER), 6 K; first walk-free appearance since his first start of the year.

    I do not think Gurriel is going anywhere. He is looking better every game.

    I'm sorry, this is the Click vs Luhnow thread. Please take your information elsewhere.

    So who gets dropped from the AAA rotation to make room?

    Given Mickey Storey’s idiosyncrasies, I think Whitley will just add to the stable of starters/piggyback guys. But if one were to be demoted, probably Conine, from what I’ve seen.

    Gaston's 7 HRs is tied with Teoscar Hernandez and Hector Roa for the most HRs hit by an Astros player in a single DSL season since 2006, despite less than 1/3rd the number of PAs.

    I'm pretty confidant that the Stros minor league coaches don't do anything that the Stros development staff doesn't tell them to.

    Colin Barber 3-3 (all singles, one RBI) so far. When can we expect to see him in Corpus?

    He’s just gone over 200 pa so it would make sense to promote him soon. But there’s a bit of a logjam in the system at OF right now. I would hope to see him up in mid July.
