For Sullivan we won’t know much of anything until he gets to AA. So far I have been disappointed at how high his k rate has been and pleasantly...
Haha well whether it’s tempering or not depends on what your expectation of those 2 guys was to start with. For Leon I think most of us expect...
Tempering stat for Shay Whitcomb and Pedro Leon: in the last 20 years, 24 players have more than 1000 career AAA pa for the Astros. Only 3 went...
wRC+ >140, High A, age <23, 2006 to present (min 140 pa), non-1B: Joseph Sullivan Jose Altuve Kyle Tucker Jeremy Pena Brett Phillips Ramon...
I am really enjoying watching Pena, Meyers, and Paredes. Literally every other hitter makes me need to pop either a Nexium or a Klonopin. The...
Meyers is on track to put up his 4th consecutive season of increased fWAR. 2022: 0.4 2023: 1.2 2024: 2.0 2025: 3.1 (projected)

May as well put my name on that list. We all 4 would have the same Hall of Fame odds: 0%.

Second straight game with a homer for Barber. Please baby Jesus let these guys come back to life. Corpus’ lineup started today’s game with 5...
I don’t think it’s that binary to define. I want every roster to be 8-9 deep with viable, age-appropriate prospects; that doesn’t mean 8-9 top...
I agree, and I think it’s chemistry. I don’t think Espada is a manager who can create chemistry on his own, and I think Bregman (and Correa and...
@IdStrosfan My responses to your questions: If I'm Lance - I go to war against this ass and use every bullet in my gun to do it, especially...
I think the roster can handle 10 guys playing 90% of the time, that of course just comes at the “cost” of dramatically less playing time for Dubon...
Astros ended April 16-14 which was only a game off where I hoped they’d be. They are 4-6 in May when I hoped they’d be 6-4. So they’re ~3 games...
I want to see Rodgers and Smith playing every day. Dezenzo should also play most days across RF, LF, 1B, and DH. Dubon, Caratini, and McCormick...
Diaz and Walker have gotten right, and I suspect Yordan will be right shortly after he comes back. The offense over the next month should really...
I’ve been thinking about how the middle levels (AA and High A) really represent the bulk of a farm system’s health. AAA rosters are typically...
Brendan Rodgers is posting dramatic improvements in launch angle, barrel %, and hard hit %. He’s posting the lowest GB% of his career. His...
Wonder what the record is for most scoreless relief innings thrown in a season…Houston might have a shot this year.
