[Official] Astros @ Rays

They were willing to be stuck with Rasmus' $16 million because it filled a hole.

 

I have say that handing Singleton the keys to 1B was shortsighted and down right stupid. Was there a single person on this board that thought he was ready? Will ever be? Yet, somewhere in the braintrust, it was thought the best answer?

 

Ya I've really enjoyed him in the booth.

 

we have got to score a run on pablo francisco over here.

 

he does play by play at UH football games.

 

I think that's well worth the risk for the chances at a compensation pick (and the higher draft pool that comes with it).

 

was that hinch decision to have marisnick run?

 

wow.

well, i take back what i said, both about his lack of experience, and about him potentially being only the 2nd hardest working man in Houston sports.

 

The front office/GM is going through the growing process too... top 100 prospect lists, grade A drafts, and organizational farm success doesn't always translate.

Luhnow still largely unproven as a MLB-level GM.

 

Did we just allow conger to throw out perhaps our fastest player????

 

Yeah that **** just happened!

 

I know it was a pitch out, but Conger throwing out Jake is just lol wtf smh

 

Surprised McCullers is still in...

 

when mccullers can actually locate his fastball he can be really really good.

 

I think it's about time for a Colby Jack

 

True for virtually every pitcher.

 

But not every pitcher has his stuff... Consistency is what kills him.

 

Has a violent throwing motion... hard to reproduce... leads to wildness.

Kinda telling that he gets more effective the longer he goes into games.... the live arm settles down, more consistent results.

 

man feliz's stuff is nasty.

 

If you don't like Feliz, you're probably a Rangers fan
