Yeah, but to be that putrid at the plate, he really would have needed to be at a point where he wouldn't need to show that much improvement on...
Seriously? You realize over a 10 year career that Walton averaged 46 games per year, 13 points and ten rebounds.... Hell, he's more comparable...
I don't doubt that Deshields still works into the Astros plans in a big way down the line. At this point, Mier is older and a level behind...
The disturbing trend is how quickly the 1st round picks sink down the overall list. Mier was considered a top 3 prospect after he was drafted and...
Chris Johnson is probably the worst defensive third baseman in the league, so if Paredes is worse than that I would be shocked. I like an...
He has a chance in my opinion. Hits are more important for a Biggio or Molitor type. Berkman walks so much and a walk is almost as good as a...
Earl wasn't really slowed because of injuries in the traditional sense. He just wore down quicker with all the carries. The better analogy would...
Trout is also four years younger than Martinez.
Chase sure strikes out a lot though. Telvin Nash with the walk off homer. Opposite Field Shot
Jason Hirsh was another one that was super tall with not much velocity. 6'8" I believe. Arauz's height isn't what makes me think he will throw...
Anyone get the MILB.TV package? Is it worth it? How often do they show each of the Astros affiliates? Good video quality. The price is so...
Maybe if they cut off unemployment and welfare, then these jobs won't seem so bad for the wages. That's the problem. You can't just take step...
Yeah I guess it's a chicken or the egg type thing. Are they really misjudging the talent or are they not developing it. Everyone says they...
Eight best players period I guess lol The fact that we don't have a prospect in the system now that would have cracked the top 10 back then is...
Just noticed Hidalgo, Russ Johnson and Chris Truby were in there as well.
Just looked at that 1998 New Orleans roster on baseball-reference. Man we had a lot of young talent back then. Meluskey, Berkman, Guillen, Ward,...
They either need guys better than Pence and Lyles, or they need to to have a lot more of those types. If they had a Pence level player at 6...
I think you are arguing something that I am not arguing. I don't think Bogusevic is any good. I don't think he will ever be any good. The point...
Maybe, but at age 24 Bogusevic was in Double-A and had an OPS over 1.000 for a third of a season. It took two years after that for him to make it...
I keep hearing that the Astros are going to be more aggressive, and you see it a little bit with a guy like Altuve and Ovando maybe starting the...
