    Maybe he needs it. Or maybe he just needs more time to ramp it up

    Remember last year how we couldn't beat teams below .500.
    I want no part of that again.

    The bbs overreaction crew totally disagrees with your theory, and is cancelling your newsletter.

    This is why the Dbacks are our "Rivalry Team", you always expect close, well-played games against these 2. Right?

    Wasn't an issue until Garcia and Framber forgot how to throw strikes this series.

    No excuses for the bats, but the cramped and ramped ST is a factor for the pitchers, we've seen it league-wide.

    If things/people still suck around the middle of May then you start talking about other options

    Offense has 5x as many <3 run-games than 5+ runs

    Yeah I used a bunch of symbols

    Sucks in the moment but they'll still finish Top 3 offensively

    It’s very early…. The Astros are on pace for 100+ wins…. But the starters not going deep were a concern going into the year and Pressly is not himself… time will tell. We have the financial ability and assets to fill a hole or two if we need to not personally over concerned… mostly even keel.

    Not overly concerned (although I will admit Framber can be a pain in my ass never know if his command will be there) …. I know that Click has said several times that he wants Javier in the rotation this year…. So IDK, maybe a couple guys in the pen emerge and pitching isn’t an issue at all.
