I like Abreu but he needs some more work… of course most of our bullpen could be optioned for more work down on the farm.
I think it’s like when you get married and Montero is a family member that comes with the package. Not necessarily something you wanted but hope it all works out.
It happens without being related too. I let a single mom and her teenage daughter use the front two bedrooms after their trailer (rental) was severely damaged in a hurricane. Three years later, they were mad when they had to leave so my sister could move back after a health scare. Not grateful that I never enforced the contribution agreed to. Something else was always more important.
Dusty knows that Brooks sucks, but the relationship means a lot more then hitting a batter after giving up a salami to lose the game for the Astros. Dusty has faith. Brooks may be in today to face the SF SS Ain't love great
No more 2nd trade deadline where players could be traded if they passed through waivers, so no more trades. The only way to add a player is through a waiver claim or pick up somebody who had passed through waivers. And considering where the Astros are record-wise and how waivers work, highly doubtful that the Astros get a waiver claim. And if the player passed through waivers, I'm not sure if the player would be someone who could help the Astros.
