    Do the Astros still view him as a potential valuable piece to a contending team?

    They love his talent… who doesn’t? So yeah they think there is at least a chance he becomes a really good player

    You make the Trevor Bauer comps, but that's insulting to Bauer IMO.
    At least he put in the work and produced results on the field, even winning a Cy Young.


    Off topic, but 80% of Bauer's suspension came from mouthing off at Manfred and humiliating them with the spider tack episode. Domingo German got 81 games, Roberto Osuna got 75 games, Chapman got 30, Marcell Ozuna got 20. This 324 game suspension reminds me of the spats the league office had with A-Rod, where he got 200 games. 81 games for taking roids, and another 119 for ratting out half the league for still taking steroids after the MLB tried washing their hands of the matter after the BALCO scandal.

    First at bat in full time ball that doesn't end with a ball in play is a home run.

    He look OK.

    Off topic, but pretty sure Bauer beating a woman halfway to death was what got him that two-year suspension.

    Good riddance to him.

    Longest suspension in MLB History for an accusation that didn't even merit a trial.

    Meanwhile emptying an entire magazine into your girlfriends house gets you 30 games, and beating her up on camera gets 20.

    That opposite field power is nasty, at this point I’m excited even if he’s only a first baseman.

    Whitley gave up 6, Sugar Land responded with 12...

    Korey Lee's 12th homer of the year is a grand slam.

    Also, Zach Dezenzo hit his first pro home run in the second game of Fayetteville's doubleheader.
