Yordan Alvarez felt discomfort after his live BP yesterday and the Astros sent him for imaging. General manager Dana Brown said it showed a fracture that is “60 percent healed.” Alvarez will be shut down, but Brown hopes he can return “in the near future.”

 

 

So in other words, it was 95% healed and 1.5 weeks away but the BP session took it back to 60% and 1.5 months away

Dana and Jim need to fire the entire Astros medical staff. This is ridiculous and the fact they let Yordan take BP with a broken hand is malpractice. That’s twice in 2 years.

I think Dana’s done a good job given the limitations on the organization. He’s helped to build one of the best bullpens in the majors. The Tucker trade looks pretty good at this point. He didn’t sign Abreu and Montero and he doesn’t make the call to stay under the luxury tax. To get to the next level, we need some of his draft picks to become players.

that's what makes me mad about Lance throwing 100+ pitches the other night. Stupid.

when is an allowable point for him to throw 100 pitches?

It was his 5th start and it was stretched out over 6 innings with these pitch counts by inning:
11

12

27

15

22

15

that’s pretty reasonable.

the bitch point would have been his 2nd start back when he only got 1 out. He threw 36 pitches in the top of the first in 14 minutes which is way worse than 102 stretched out over 90 minutes .

As ridiculous as this injury situation sounds, it’s even worse in print:

Be nice, we all know there really isn't a proven way to determine if an injury is soft tissue or bone,

I wonder if a better defensive 2B gets to that ball and the Rays score 0 runs here.

You don't like a 2B with the lateral range and quickness of Mark Eaton?

Gorro is trash. We need spaghetti back

The Astros medical staff just consulted their tea leaves and Spencer should be go to go after 2-3 bleedings and a ceremonial ritual to drive away evil spirits.

All of Walker’s ABs today have been absolute garbage. Great job Espada having him bat cleanup AGAIN which has been an unmitigated disaster all season. Bang up job managing, have a mound visit yet keep the gas can in the game. Fire this idiot tomorrow.

Can we stop with the we are a contending team bullshit now? We have 2 good starters and 2 good relievers and a lineup that has too many slap hitters with a manager that doesn't know how to manage to that style.
