You are probably right and I don’t have a strong argument against valuing Diaz similar to an MLB Top 50 prospect, I am just hesitant to go all in...
It would not surprise me if Whitcomb showed quite well in AAA since his power might play up in that league. I wonder who will be the primary SS...
Imagining Meyers and Diaz as premium offensive players at CF and C is pretty damned exciting. The train might just keep on rolling.
I think we are close enough to the deadline that Houston’s assets won’t change in value very much (aside from injuries). Broken down by tiers:...
Yeah that’s Framber so kid is at least 6’4” but 6’5” or 6’6” is totally reasonable. No way he’s only 175. Minimum 190.
It’s a shame Stubbs strikes out so much, because he’s otherwise he’s a really nice prospect. He’s hit 16 HR over his last 300 pa with 13 SB and a...
I do think that HR was the start of something. Whether it broke a mental block or was just the result of swing tinkering, he’s looked like a...
Jairo Solis did not have a good start tonight but he did get up to 97 with his 4 seam. I would not mind him being used in relief later this...
That’s probably it for Whitley. Tough break.
Pedro Leon has hit 3 HR in the last 5 games. So hopefully that’s a sign of things to come. He still struck out quite bit in those games, but if...
It’s such a bummer because if this roster was fully healthy they’d be bumping: Out: Bielak, Blanco, Martinez, Julks In: McCullers, Garcia,...
I don’t understand why McCormick isn’t the everyday LF. No good reason to run Julks out there more than ever 4-5 games so that one of the other...
Duvall or Teoscar would lengthen the lineup nicely.
I think Blackmon has 10/5 rights so a full no-trade. I doubt he will leave Colorado. Even more so than prior years, we will really not be able...
Do not want Seth Brown.
Good stuff, looks like we got bored at the same time lol
My updated Astros Top 30 prospect rankings for May: [SPOILER] Another mixed bag month, as high ceiling AAA guys like Leon and Whitley floundered...
Pitching health will determine who wins the division. The Astros would run away with it again if they’d had both Brantley/Abreu healthy and...
AA SP ERA for May: Arrighetti 0.67 Robaina 1.85 Gordon 2.16 Henley 3.38 Kouba 3.46 Brown 5.59 Plumlee 10.34 Chaidez 10.97 Robaina, Gordon, and...
Urquidy isn’t bad, but “solid” might be stretching it. He’s never pitched a full season and only once topped 107 innings in a season. He’s never...
