I’d be very surprised. Unless they need another outfielder/platoon guy post Alvarez and before tucker get to super 2 in late July...
Sure spot on post. 100%. Even having doubts it’s the smart play long term.
I didn’t explain it well when I said it’s not the same for everyone. My point was that bc tucker has service time already, Super two for him, if...
Super two isn’t a set date and it’s not the same for all players. Super two for Alvarez is likely sometime in late May or Early June. I’d expect...
Agree to disagree. I kind of hope I’m wrong.
Astros also value extracting value for all their prospects, not giving away major league caliber guys and organizational depth. That’s why I will...
Sure. That’s what the team and FO is doing, but as a fan I can look ahead and speculate, and I damn sure don’t expect the twins to be the power of...
This is my guess as well. I said on the minors thread that looks like somewhere between 30 and 60 days. If it’s an 8 week injury that puts him...
I was just throwing out the most ridiculous hypothetical on White to suggest how meaningless it is who the Astros give Springers AB’s to in the...
It’s total time in the bigs, so by not breaking camp it stalls any more accrual of time in the bigs for super two. Keeping him down until mid to...
If the Astros are saying no big deal just some arm fatigue bet on amputation. I keeed (a little)
I’m not the biggest Tucker honk in the world, but sure- that’s possible, especially against a righty.
Whitley man, hope he’s working on something, obviously, as the only other options are he’s hurt or broken/not as good as though. I can’t imagine...
I mean, he fits best at DH, obviously. I get that the Astros want to keep the DH spot “open” to regularly rotate players and that’s great of you...
It’s always appropriate to count the Rangers as losers.
I mean, he might not call a time out but I suspect he would. I happen to believe that most coaches believe there’s a benefit to calling TO’s on...
You missed his point. The rockets regular offense is better than everyone’s offense after a “high percentage play” that’s been scouted to death...
Most of this post I don’t agree with, but that sequence you hi lighted where we ended up with a 4 point lead instead of a 9 point lead was the...
Eh, I'm betting the under on 135 (hell, I will be the under on 120) for wRC+ between now and the end of the year. And I like Reddick.
I’d like a million dollars in the bank and a 12 inch ****. One out of 2 isn’t bad. You are being unrealistic and a baby. The team on the other...
