Procedurally - the Astros would need to place someone on the IL to bring him back up.

Gordon would be on turn for Sunday’s game vs. Seattle.

Assuming Lance McCullers starts Thursday, the Astros will have to fill the final 3 games of the Seattle series with a combination of Framber Valdez, expectedly Colton Gordon and a 3rd pitcher if Blanco is unable to make his start Friday.

 

lol

Where is Brandon Bielak when you need him

Lost in all the shitty lineup talk:

Altuve down to a .238 average.

end of 2029 is a looooong way off 

He’s earned every penny of what we are going to pay him. From a fairness perspective I’m fine with it. The biggest problem, imo, is how do you turn him into a part time player when he’s conclusively washed?  Painful. At least with Biggio we weren’t really trying to win anything.

Right.

the money won’t be the issue with him.

the black hole if we’re still competitive will be.

unfortunately, like Biggio, the chances of us competing for anything the back half of this decade seem to get smaller and smaller by the week

He started the season fine, but I don't understand why he doesn't try to revert back to the singles hitter he started out as.

I will give him a pass this season with the clusterfuckery they have put him in defensively.  His head has to be fucked up already dealing and learning OF shit and now when he is struggling at the plate it is just piling up.  

Just leave him at 2nd base back at his comfort zone and try to get back to focusing on his at the plate shit.

Pride and bad coaching. Biggio had problems with the breaking pitch, but it was never as bad as Altuve and Altuve has gotten worse.
