Yamal Encarnacion is also playing in today’s FCL game. So that’s 3 upside guys who would probably be slated for AA in Palma, Encarnacion, and...
I would think the twisting motion of swinging the bat is more sensitive to rib and back injuries than the kind of movement and contact done in...
Yeah he will probably be able to hit (potentially wearing a rib protector) 2-3 weeks before he can play the field. This is pretty devastating for...
At this point Pena is probably out until mid-August. That’s not good.
The MRI scanner used for initial assessments of injured Houston Astros players is the most worthless piece of **** machine in human history.
Yeah I agree, prospect and farm system rankings are pretty arbitrary but especially without the context of what the major league roster looks...
3 interesting guys making rehab appearances in the FCL game today: SS Greg Jones, 3B Jack Blomgren, and C Miguel Palma. All 3 guys could give a...
[SPOILER]
That $2M is an estimate (not sure where you got it from). It is very possible they have more wiggle room than that. But either way, when trading...

Not that it’s major reason for optimism, but Whitaker has improved each month this season. He has a 692 ops in June after posting a 536 in May...
It’s too early to fully evaluate the post-Luhnow drafts. And Luhnow’s drafts from 2017-2019 were propped up by 1 player in each draft (Meyers,...
Luciano is having a great June. He’s the kind of prospect whose trajectory can turn very quickly. He was a exit velo darling 2 years ago then...
https://www.mlb.com/amp/news/mlb-pipeline-mock-draft-june-26-2025.html Updated MLB.com mock has Houston taking Kayson Cunningham. I will be very...
And 3 different GMs. Would say a LOT about Jim Crane and Jose Altuve.
Cam. A lamb. A ding dong.
We’ll see. Being out for 3 months typically means building back up from scratch.
