I agree with you. At a minimum one of the 5 best active actors in the world when he died. Frank Pempleton is possibly the best acted character...
Max Scherzer had back surgery and could be out until July.
Framber is better than Glasnow and Ohtani. He throws a lot of pitches, a lot of innings, can consistently go deep into games and is really good.
No - I asked and was told that the Astros will listen on anyone, but they have not brought up Valdez' name and do not intend to trade him. The...
LOL Jonathan Turley, what a ****ing blowhard - he hasn't been respected of relevant in nearly 40 years. At this point he just cashes checks from Fox.
Hunter is a leach. He didn't ask to be the son of a prominent politician, but he has certainly profited off of it. The only reason I don't call...
In the G-League: Cam Whitmore is averaging 27/7/3 on 50/42/80 Emoni Bates is averaging 24/5/2 on 46/43/68 In the G-League you have to take the...
Framber wanted to extend with the Astros. If the Astros have a bad 2024, then they likely will look at trading him but I have heard ZERO about...
Zach Cole will be interesting. Either we will hear nothing about him next year and he will be released 18 months from now or he will get to AA/AAA...
Brown really likes his high upside - high variance prospects. Arrighetti and Melton both have extreme outcome profiles. Melton is going to be...
Health and command are what kept Hideo Nomo from being a Hall of Famer. Yamamoto is better at the same age - but his movement reminds me of Nomo....
Trust me - I know more than most. Some of the stories I have heard from the Astros current and former employees is hard to believe. He got into...
Yamamoto reminds me a lot of Hideo Nomo, but with better command. I think Yamamoto is a good investment for someone like the Mets or another team...
The fast ball should be his third most used offering. It is fine right outside the zone to foul off - but he wasn't putting anyone away with it. I...
Jake Meyers is best served being a platoon split because of his bat. Having said that, I am okay with the Astros trying to find out what they...
The ideal situation is to have an in house replacement, and that might be the way we go. However, there are other ways to do it too - look at Dana...
That isn't going to happen. If for some reason the Astros are bad this season, like under .500% - then I could see them re-evaluate and decide...
I don't think so - but I could be wrong.
The 2019 Nationals? Yeah, I made a tiny fortune betting on them winning the World Series.... their pitching was just that good. The 2021 Braves?...
While all of this is interesting and certainly worth considering - culture needs to be considered as well. What I mean by that is that there is a...
