Odo is fine in a mike Fiers in 2017 rile to eat some innings when you want to justifiably keep innings down on all those other guys before the...
I think his point was JV wasn’t a HOF lock when he came to the Astros. Which is probably correct. I think he might have gotten in but it was...
Remember that year where it seemed like all the Astros had kids in the offseason and then we sucked during home games? As a father of 3 little...
The Kings passing on Ivey was all the confirmation I needed to know that expecting big things from Ivey was really really smart. When Sacto...
I think 1B needs to be a job split. JJ is hot garbage against LHP, correct? Maybe it's a straight up platoon with Jones at 1b. Maybe it's Yuli...
He can still get there if he pitches as long as I think he will. I think he’s got another 5 years in him after this year. If he sticks with good...
I had Chet 1 and Ivey 2. I really really like Ivey.
Ignore my first response. Misread the probables. Thought JV was going Wednesday. He’s getting skipped. Hmmmmmm

I know. Was disappointed not to hear the deal. It’s why I stayed tuned in for the post game, but no such luck.
Didn’t hear it referenced in the postgame interview.
First round draft pick in 2019. He’s a catcher from Cal Berkeley. He was a top 5 prospect For us, but not a top 100 type prospect. he’s got some...
I’d like to see Valdez go Thursday on 4 days rest so he will be ready to pitch in the ASG. I know it’s an exhibition but it’s his first time...
Have we had a suggestion of Odo for Cavan Biggio?
Everyone was saying 300 was dead but I always expected JV to get there. I really think he’s pitching into his mid 40’s. but boy, after that there...
I did know that. Bill James had Craig Biggio with stuff like that as the most under appreciated sneaky great guy of his generation I believe.
I think Biggio had some sort of crazy thing where he never swung at a 3-0 pitch for the vast majority of his career.
