    Their plan is to bring dude back with 10 games to go and hope for the best. There is no way the guy still ain't running. This is stupid.

    Ok Doctor. Thanks for your medical opinion. I'm sure you are more qualified than the Houston Astros medical staff.

    This didn’t need a new thread. It’s been discussed ad nauseum in literally every thread

    I am old enough to remember when players like Yao, Brandon Roy, and Ralph Sampson were not "babied"

    I guarantee you if it was the playoffs, he'd magically be better.

    To be fair, not sure there’s much confidence left in the Astros current medical staff

    Put as much stock in this as you want, but the radio booth said Tucker's hit live BP 3 days in a row and feels good. Said the FO expects him back Tuesday or Wednesday in Cincy. No rehab assignment, which surprises me a bit. I'm assuming that means a couple of games at DH before he sees the OF.

    I have to do something to balance out the what trope of being angry at facts that aren’t correct
