The Yankees will sign him. They need pitching, and have the media cache to get away with it.

Who has the cap space ?

Be sure to put his locker right next to Cole’s

Perfect. They might kill each other then the Yankee rotation would be even more fucked and the world would be rid of a couple of assholes.

He can literally sign for 1M if he wants. The Dodgers already paid him for his services this year.

the rays should sign him 

This is not deja vu. Sugar Land pitching allowed 22 runs last night in a 22-4 blowout loss at Albuquerque.

 

How sad is this?   These are stats for a 6-game home stand.  Shocking they lost 4 of 6.

Nah... the whole point is that this is arguably the best player line over the past 6 games.  This is a great stat line for 2 games and good for 3 games.  For 6 games it's about average.  And this is the best on the team.

There are player of the homestand awards now?

Can he hit?  Asking for a friend/team.

Just throw him out there and let him play first !

He needs to focus on 1B and LF, because we apparently have no need for a catcher who can hit.

Who can also play 1B and LF

What’s the word on Garcia? “Elbow discomfort” doesn’t usually end well. I don’t think he’ll ever be an ace, but he’s a good, dirt cheap option in the middle of the rotation. 

nothing yet, probably get some bad news tomorrow afternoon when Dusty is available

Yeah given where the Urquidy injury is, I don’t feel too great about that one either. Astros pitchers man, they never roll an ankle. Every, single, injury is 12-18 months.

Question for the board, how many spot starts can France and Whitley make before the Super 2 Deadline?

Bielak isn’t my favorite, buts he’s invaluable right now.

Outside of Lance and JV, our rotation has been really stable.  I am most concerned about Garcia though, most twitter comments seem to think its TJ.  Urquidy is a mystery, he is shut down, but people online seem less stressed about his return

I'll leave the Super 2 Deadline question to the real experts

Multiple sources: The Seattle Mariners are calling up RHP Juan Then. He will be in Seattle tomorrow.

Then, 23, was a Mariners int’l free agent signing in 2016. He’s been up to 99 with a breaking ball that has improved a ton over the last calendar year. 11 K in 9 IP at AA.

We don’t typically know when Super 2 is (it’s figured out after the fact- but generally it falls somewhere on the calendar between June 5-25 (and again- it’s not known until the end of the year when it happened so it’s conjecture). 
they can pull them up and send them back down (Tucker had this happen to him) and they end up not being super 2. Of they spot started for a month and then went back down they would not be super 2. Up from mid June through the end of the year and almost definitely super 2.

Not Then.

Pic makes me sad about Ken.  Should have had multiple GGs as an Astro.  Finally got some with SD because back then you had to be a great hitter to get one.  I think it's one of the reasons that he started roiding.  Of course the crack use was great either

What we all already knew was happening.....I hope Chas and Brantley are on that flight also 

 

 

 

Probably keeping him fresh just in case the bullpen gets overworked.

If he can swing a bat, he needs to be in Houston.  His tune up at bats will be better than what half of the current lineup can do.

JV's first game back yesterday:

5 IP 5 H 2 R 1 BB 5 K

The Mets only got 3 hits and lost 2-0.  Shockingly both runs were on solo homers.

Tonight's game starts at 9:15...furk.

Excited about playing the M's and Division tilts, but damn that Pacific timezone.  LOL.

Feels like team is deciding "who" it is going to be.  Let's be winners!

You Central time zone guys have it easy...says the guy following from Georgia. But no matter what time it is where any Astros fan happens to be, let's win. 

Yainer Diaz will catch J.P. France’s major league debut tomorrow.
