Meh. I like following some aspects of the minors very much (obviously). I rarely watch minor league games in their entirety. I watch 100+...
This is a 2009 comment bro
Do you know how many CF hit 20+ HR/season? Last season there were 10 and they averaged ~4.8 fwar. We would all be stoked as hell if he panned...
Left hand discomfort.
Trade: Walker, Dubon, McCormick, Meyers, Alvarez, Caratini, Framber, Hader, Abreu, Okert, Ort, Whitley Extend: Pena and Paredes 2026 roster: C...
I have thought Marsh was a good comp for Melton but I am hopeful Melton will hit more HR and be a little more valuable.
How would you all feel about this deadline: Out: SP Framber Valdez, RP Bryan Abreu, C Victor Caratini, OF/IF Shay Whitcomb, OF Zach Dezenzo, P...
I expect Melton to play most days. Unfortunately I will be surprised if Whitcomb gets to play much even though what he’s done in AAA the last 2...
I don’t see how Cunningham slips to 21 at this point. LaViolette would be a very interesting risky pick. Gavin Kilen would be a high floor pick....

I said early in the offseason the one thing Houston could not sustain was a serious injury to Alvarez. If he’s going to be out thru July then I...
Dezenzo is going on the IL
This lineup could be pretty good even if Yordan is out long term if Melton and Smith take off. SS Pena 3B Paredes DH Altuve 1B Walker C Diaz LF...
Gray outing in that game for this year’s Jake Bloss, Bryce Mayer.
I’m getting excited too. 1st place heading into the easiest month on the schedule. Shown the ability to come back. Elite 1-2 punch at the top...
He’s lining up for $180M/6yrs. Framber is great and all but I wouldn’t give him 75% of that.
One thing worth noting about Dezenzo is that despite being 25, he has not really had very much time to develop. He got himself on the radar by...
