  1. GTFO of Cincinnati!
  2. Abreu needs a DL stint.
  3. Hayward could use a good game at the plate if he’s think about making post season roster. Chas is threatening the Mendoza line.
  4. Just came to say same thing. Practically same age and identical career WAR and WAA. Chapman has 4 gold gloves and having another great year defensively. Bregman now has an injury concern also. If that isn’t his ceiling it’s close. Maybe not his but the teams. Between Tucker, Framber and Bregman at least one will probably have to go for salary purposes. Framber will want $25, Tucker will want $30+, Bregman $25+ plus we need find a 1B and possibly outfielder in free agency. Going to be a very interesting off season. A GM could really make or break their career in an off season like this. No need for this window to close anytime soon with the right moves.
  5. Hope Spaghetti hasn’t been reading his press clippings
  6. If Notre Dame plays on offense the way they did the other night, they will lose 3-4 games. Not every team is going to roll out the worst QB in college football against them.
  7. Had Aggie friend tell me Saturday that those guys get more P than anyone on campus. I said brother I don’t believe that but if it’s true, that’s a sad commentary on the rest of you dudes. I wouldn’t admit that if I were you.
  8. Sleep walking through this one. 12 more puts and a day off. Get em Wednesday.
  9. For a first place team we have more holes than a bachelors underwear.
  10. Blanco definitely needs to miss a turn or two

  12. Heyward hitting .308 against lefties this year…
  13. Nobody saw that outfield coming. The book that will be written after the Astros win the World Series this year will be epic. Call it Smoke and Mirrors.
  14. lol I get it. But at the same time we have got to get younger and cheaper and better to keep window open. How long will Crane keep riding the salary threshold lines? We keep letting our assets walk away without using them to replenish. I’d like to keep Tucker Yordan and Yainer as a core and keep adding to that. Framber is our best asset to get a big return. We may have to trade Tucker too. But if we are going to spend 25-30 million on Framber, we could also trade him for a couple potential starters and still use that same money on another pitcher. Standing pat is backing up. Our outfield is a mess. I’d have no trouble trading Framber for a young outfielder, 1B and/or pitcher. Is anyone scared of facing headcase Framber in a playoff someday? You have to give to get. Anyway, it’s just spitballing crap. No matter how well we finish this year there are major moves needing to be made. But I’ll take another flag first.
  15. Framber should be traded this offseason for prospects and use whatever we were going to pay him to sign another pitcher. It’s the only way to use the same money and also get prospects to keep the window open. There is no reason this window should close while Yordan is still in his prime. A good GM can extend this another four years.
  16. Utility gold glove in the bag
  17. Tucker is sprinting in the outfield! Running bases next!
  18. He should go down and consider it a rehab assignment for next 30 days. See what happens. Maybe he will see Tucker down there.
  19. Jason Hayward’s last at bat with the Dodgers was a pinch hit 3 run homer in bottom of the 8th to beat the Mariners. Hes already done more to help the Astros than Chas the last week.
  20. I remember when we were searching high and low for a left hand bat in the outfield. Now I think that’s all we have besides Meyers and Dubon. I’m assuming Chas is toast. I had a feeling they would look at Heyward. Stat line isn’t great this year but his exit velocity is up from last year and he doesn’t strike out much. He can pinch hit for Meyers in extras a move that damn runner over to third almost every damn time. This is what I’ve been saying about getting bench bats. Get guys like Gamel and Haywood that have been in the league 10 years and had some success. Cheap. Not world beaters. But they will give competitive at bats and get a couple hits. Put the damn ball in play. It’s not like Madris, Cabbage, Hummel, Bannon and all the the other 4A guys we’ve tried that have no skins and swallow their nuts against big league pitching. I think by the end of September Whitcomb and Dezenzo are gonna also make for some tough decisions for playoff roster assuming they keep progressing and Singleton, Chas etc keep sucking.
  21. Damn we needed that win. Cleveland got swept, Minn getting blasted.
  22. I played on pickup slow pitch softball teams with more stable lineups.
  23. Dubon almost Bump Baily’d himself. RIP
  24. So glad I had to miss yesterday’s game after Friday night. Sounds horrible.
