2022 Houston Astros Thread

The 27 Tampa fans are gonna enjoy Siri swinging like a crazy person in the playoffs.  McDermott has a 5.50 era and a whip of 1.39 so I'm guessing he has pretty good stuff but no control.  He was a college player, so at some point you gotta just be able to throw strikes.

They aren't going to platoon. Mancini will play 1B against RHP and the OF against LHP. The platoon will be between the LF against RHP and Yuli. I'd still get Happ. Who can play LF against RHP and CF against LHP.

This is an encouraging development for page 300. I take that as a sign Mancini will get hot and hit .300 for us through the playoffs.

That's a great deal, if that's it's final form. Per Fangraphs, McDermott is a 40 and Murray a 40+ - so they swapped one pitching prospect for another that is roughly equal, maybe better. So they basically traded Siri for Mancini straight up. That's a win.
