  1. I don't think the issue is the anatomical structure(s) involved, I suspect it is finding an effective course of action, and as I mentioned before, Alvarez wasn't too thrilled to get the microfracture surgical repair done on the knee. I truly think this has been more they knew what the problem was, had an idea where they would ultimately end up treatment wise, and they have been waiting for Alvarez and his camp to agree with the surgical option. All conjecture on my part, but I don't believe the medical staff doesn't know what is wrong with the hand.
  2. I have never heard or read anything specific, but the only two bones I have heard in the hand that have an issue healing on their own are the navicular and the hamate. With the description, the injured area isn't at the base of the thumb, and the hamate would be the bone that makes sense with what others have said the issue is the end of the bat applying pressure to the area. Sad part is there is a good track record with the surgery and they have wasted a good deal of recovery and rehab time.
  3. No such such as a remake THAT NEEDS to happen.
  4. Alvarez isn't even hitting in live games right now. He needs to have the surgery and get ready for next year. They can't replace what he can do when he is healthy, but he ain't healthy and they definitely replaced his current form which is a guy hitting soft toss and off a tee.
  5. Don't love tying up $30M with Carlos the next two years and the lose of draft pick, but it is Crane's money and team. He did say he wants to contend each year so I guess let it rip. Each one of those guys actually is better than the players other than Dubon in those spots, allows Altuve to be a pure DH and out of left field, Dubon in center ain't bad, and there is some roster flexibility in games .
  6. So Dubon to center now with Urias and Carlos taking 2nd and 3rd, Sanchez in outfield/dh?
  7. Sounds as if Carlos needs to switch from doing commercials for HEB and become a spokeman for The Good Feet Store.
  8. He didn't say August of which year.
  9. I was actually okay with taking the 30M and signing the Polar Bear since you are asking.......
  10. Jesus fucking Christ, Dana has been the GM since January 2023. What the fuck did you expect him to do drafting at the back of the order and with the lost picks? Hell, Matthews is one of his and showed potential, but go ahead and get in football season mode for when Arch doesn't got for 400 and 5 in the first game.
  11. The Urias deal feels like a deal Dana wanted to make, this deal feels like one that Dana was told to make by Crane.
  12. Same shit we went through with the knee before he finally agreed to the surgery. The guy has had three strings in 8 years where he has missed 50+ games in a season. That is a bit worrisome for someone who is a DH a good part of the time.
  13. Why? This isn't the Carlos of old we are trading for and Suarez has a career average under .230 hitting in Seattle. He will strike out, hit home runs, and the Astros as about to hit a stretch that is going to make or break them playing the East. Astros have to address the pitching issue plain and simple be it getting guys back or adding an arm.
  14. Hey, .248 average and an OPS of almost .690 are an upgrade for anyone else on the roster outside of Dubon.
  15. Pretty amazing that a guy with just over $40M in career earnings and a 10-11 career was paid 75% of those earnings in 3 years, fucking Bagwell.
