    What a RELIEF.

    Abreu is probably off the active roster once we have to trim.

    Just wanted to make it interesting for himself. These pitchers got a short summer camp to get ready, there's going to be some wildness to work through early on.

    So whats the deal with the minors? I know they arent playing but what happens if we need to fill roster spots? I also assume there will be no trades during the season

    Heart attack, yes. Lucky?....he's hard to hit. it didn't take any great defense. He's probably going to have plenty of goose eggs with guys on base due to walks like today with the occasional stinker that he gives up a 3-run homer.

    I’m ready to buy Toro being at least an average quality every day player at the MLB level.

    The Astros have an elite group of pitching prospects sitting around in CC waiting for Hanna to pass that will practice with less than elite hitting prospects.
