    he was potentially valuable around the trade deadline when we should've traded him for at least some prospect(s). At least according to Dusty, the phone was off the hook with inquiries for him!

    Off-season can’t get here fast enough for Javier. He’s just burnt out and I agree a DL stint would have been great for him.

    I’m not concerned about the rest of his contract just yet. I’m hoping his spin rate and velo is back up next season with some rest and no world baseball classic

    altuve gave them 1 free out but then casas dropped a fly ball in foul territory so it canceled out i guess.

    It was a tough play so I’m not blaming anyone, but those are the outs Javier needs right now. Had a low pitch count for that inning so far, can’t let this turn into a 20 plus pitch inning

    Frustrating. Both of those with 2 outs?

    I'd rather see Dubon playing 2nd and Altuve at DH.

    Don't break down Javier - you can still recover

    EDIT: He didn't
