  1. Feels like this team would blow a lead against the 8th graders at Challenger School
  2. The problem is they've been shitting the bed this month as well and we've wasted that opportunity and allowed them to increase their division lead.
  3. man, what a terrible June swoon
  4. what??? Salazar, sure I guess, maybe Madris again.....but why would Julks or Kessinger be removed from the 40-man roster without a better option in place? That exposes them to the waivers process for other teams to pluck away.
  5. 10-13 for the month of June with four games remaining. The worst June since the Bo Porter era.....
  6. wow I'd rather just have Siri back
  7. Who cares even if that's the case as he will still have to accrue 172 days on the major league roster for one year of service time. His future with Houston is already very much in doubt so I don't really see how the service time clock is that much of an issue.
  8. I think you're overthinking this aspect of it, he's already on the 40-man roster? As I understand it (and I may be wrong here) It's really not about starting his "service time clock" fwtf that means as much as it is about his remaining option years/accrued service time. I don't think that has much bearing on a decision whether or not to put him on the 60-day IL. From Chandler Rome's Athletic piece earlier this month:
  9. Explain please
  10. My guess is they move Whitley to the 60-day IL but take that fwiw He's playing hurt I think and was only recently inserted back into the field to play defense
  11. probably about 235 or so
  12. Joel Kuhnel, come on down!
  13. It makes sense to me considering the innings the bullpen has thrown. They need to keep arms fresh right now. Bielak is scheduled to start on Saturday for Sugar Land but I think they plan on having him around this weekend in case one of the scheduled starters can't pitch deep into the game. Edit: scratch that, can't be Bielak yet because pitchers have to stay on the minor league roster 15 days before being recalled.
  14. So Bielak is probably coming back up with Salazar getting optioned?
  15. So we're three plus weeks from Yordan returning because he's certainly not back before the ASG. Three games @LAD Three games @ STL Four games @ Arlington Two games vs COL Three games vs SEA Can we go 9-6 over this stretch?
  16. Can't win ten in a row like the Cincinnati Reds (!!!) without winning one in a row first.
  17. Pretty fucking hilarious for Rogan and his bro army to tweetbully Hotez into a dumbass "debate" over settled science when Rogan is too much of a massive coward to even have Sam Seder come on his show to debate him on anything because he knows Seder doesn't give a fuck about getting invited back and will absolutely clean his clock on anything related to politics and policy.
  18. I don't think Dubin is the answer over Bielak. He can throw some heat but he walks too many and gets in trouble often. I think he's going to get shelled at the next level.
  19. Terrible week of Astros baseball that just happened to coincide with the Rangers worst week of the season as well. Wasted opportunities.
  20. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/texas-sports-nation/astros/article/houston-astros-cincinnati-reds-takeaways-18155909.php?utm_source=marketing&utm_medium=copy-url-link&utm_campaign=article-share&hash=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaG91c3RvbmNocm9uaWNsZS5jb20vdGV4YXMtc3BvcnRzLW5hdGlvbi9hc3Ryb3MvYXJ0aWNsZS9ob3VzdG9uLWFzdHJvcy1jaW5jaW5uYXRpLXJlZHMtdGFrZWF3YXlzLTE4MTU1OTA5LnBocA==&time=MTY4NzAxNDc3MzA5NA==&rid=ZWIwYjZmZGItNjBmOS00MzQ1LTg5OGYtYjVhYjc3YTdjMjdl&sharecount=MQ==
