Age 20 season in A ball: Player A: 11.5% bb, 14.6% k, .173 ISO, .296/.385/.469, 140 wRC+, .45 SB/G Player B: 7.6% bb, 11.3% k, .137 ISO,...
What exactly was “exposed”? He showed elite ability to get whiffs and limit walks. He gave up too many of hard hit balls but how could you look...
The numbers are bad but there are some mitigating factors: Strikeout rates are up across all of the minors, not just the Astros teams. Not sure...
Gomez was hurt but is healthy now. Baez I think was on the development list, but is now active, so I’m not sure what’s going on with him.

Paredes is a rich man’s Pablo Sandoval.
I might’ve been wrong about Pena. I thought he’d peaked as a rookie but he looks like a BAMF.

Well that works out, since Abreu had pitched 2 days in a row. Houston can send Blubaugh down after today’s game and bring up an extra RP until...
There’s already an opening on the 40 man. Van Wey is really the only option on the 26 man unless they put Wesneski on the IL.
I consider is fairly likely that Houston trades away at least one controllable out of options RP between now and July, whether that’s Scott,...
Not to mention having Pressly would mean Houston has almost zero money to spend at the deadline. Bello hasn’t looked very good but even if he...
Looks like McCullers is in line to start on Monday on the road against the Brewers.
Paredes is a BAMF
