  1. Absolutely went around on the 2-2 and batter n bailed out by ump. Immediate 2 run dong. Awesome.
  2. He’s like 32 years old has mid to poor stuff. There is no room to grow. If he wants to keep hitting sports and being basically perfect cool- he can keep this up. Hes having a career year here in HTown, has earned his WS ring but he’s got no more untapped upside than Zach Short for example.
  3. Summer of george! I take him out here. Okert/Sousa/Abreu to the house. if the Astros want to score 5 here that won’t bother me though.
  4. Welp, let’s hope we don’t regret the b4 too much.
  5. I hate being from the future.
  6. Welp, k then DP. I guess it is. Maybe KKk
  7. Let’s go double okay k, not k double play. That would get us a run.
  8. I will take it. Come on Carlos- let’s put this out of reach here.
  9. Peña has really been good in that spot. I’d not mess with that once he gets back. Yordan needs to hit 2 if he’s coming back here like it has been alleged he might.
  10. He was highly touted in the majors bc of skill set not production imo. He’s got a broken hit tool and I have very little faith in him ever becoming a really good player. if he fixed the hit tool he will be a well above average player but most guys don’t. Bet against.
  11. Melton is on the playoff roster imo as our base stealer.
  12. It’s amazing that he was able to become an MLB player by overcoming the adversity of not being able to hit. I bet that doesn’t stay long.
  13. Probably not on Framber. The problem with Cy young and getting in the top 10 is only 3 guys get votes, so there typically isn’t even a top 10 over the course of a full season, because guys don’t even get votes that would slot in the 8/9/10 spot the way they do in MVP voting. if he finishes super strong he might get a couple votes here and there which would definitely put him in the top 10.
  14. I think @Snake Diggityis the one that introduced that to me earlier this year over on clutch fans...
  15. If you have a top 100 prospect up on the first day of the season with rookie eligibility the team gets an extra draft pick if: 1) they win ROY 2) they finish top 3 in cy young before they become arbitration eligible 3) same as 2 but MVP. they did this to try to incentivize teams to not fuck with service time manipulation in the last CBA.
  16. Also, just crunched all the AL numbers on pitchers. I find it extremely likely that Brown should finish 3rd or so if the season were to end today. Anything lower than that and honestly the voters will have gotten it wrong. I’m not saying he’s guaranteed for finish top 3 but if he can get it to the house with an era 2.5 or lower I would bet he’s top 3 and we get the pick.
  17. They are dumb. He should be 1 on the list imo. having the astros system with 2 pitchers in the top 10 at 8 and 9 is dumb. I can almost guarantee you that 75% of the value in our system is in arms.
  18. It’s 6/5 and pick em. He needs to finish strong. No more duds and houston winning the division and I think he gets there.
  19. I’m terrified of the 7 with Baltimore.
  20. If he gets top 3 in Cy Young we steal a draft pick. Hes pitching like Cy Young again. 4 shaky outings outside of that he’s been a top 5 pitcher in baseball. Finish strong.
  21. Yall fuckers need to respect Abreu’s process. 95% of the time it works every time he is one of the top 10 relievers in MLB. He will be fine get Walter and garcia back healthy and we have enough arms without Hader. Pray it’s muscular (back fine for 26) and not structural (career in jeopardy).
  22. Just to clarify, we are one brutally missed strike that was called a ball away from cam smith doing nothing for a month, right? Melton is every bit as shitty (so far) as I expected him to be all through his time in the minors. At least yainer Maldonado is having a game. I wouldn’t have sent Brown back out there. I know, I know. He’s just been bad Al year on 4 days rest and he doesn’t seem sharp. I will be happy if we only give up 2 this inning.
  23. C- for style, B for effectiveness. I’d take 2 runs in 5 innings from every starter for the rest of the year and feel like we’d win well more than we’d lose.
