These last 2 starts by McCullers are two of the least pleasant baseball watching experiences I’ve ever had.
It’s like watching Carlos Hernandez in 2002. Not the same pitcher. Injury destroyed him. We are just watching the Astros and McCullers play...
Lance. Throw was low. Pena could have caught it tho.
Right now he is a guy with a 90-92 mph FB and a SL/CU that move but he can’t command. The FB velo ain’t coming back. He can be effective if he...
Lance’s stuff seems to have better movement on it but his command still doesn’t seem there. And he’s 2-3 ticks below his peak velo. I think he...
I absolutely HATE the fact that I have to pay $100/f’n mo. for Fubo and that STILL doesn’t get me all the games. But I do love how Apple lets you...
The main reason I worry is that it’s not like he was rushed back. It’s not like there’s some chance he will get stronger. Yes there might be...
I don’t know but I will say this: if McCullers ever goes on the IL again, I think the odds of him ever pitching in MLB again are <50%.
Alvarez: injured and bad luck Walker: bad luck, bad swing decisions, and age related decline Diaz: bad luck and bad swing decisions Altuve: Age...
I’d like to see Smith or Dezenzo hit 2nd for awhile to see if hitting in front of Alvarez gives them a boost; also their speed on the bases might...
The number of players on the IL in the minors is insane to me. Corpus has 11 dudes on the IL, Fayetteville has 13. Of the 177 players on...
Last 3 games he’s 7-11 with a 2B, a HR, a BB, a SB, and only 1 k.
Hmm. 610 ops in the pioneer league.
Astros starting 1B, LF, and DH have an average of 637 OPS. That is completely unacceptable and no team with that level of offense across those 3...
Damn near 1/3 thru the season and Astros have 5 starting position players posting a wRC+ <90. Not good.
Walker needs to be moved down in the lineup until he shows he can consistently produce. Hitting him 4th is not working for anybody.
Christian Walker needs to earn some ****ing money tonight.
Pretty sure it was just cash
LLWW. I am extremely anxious to see how McCullers pitches tomorrow. I feel like his career hangs in the balance of his next handful of starts.
I think Paredes is as good if not better offensively than Bregman but your point is a good one that Alvarez may be affected by there being one...
