Happened on a changeup no less… drink some milk, son.

(Change up or not, 89 to the ribs is not fun).

 

and have we confirmed there were no masseuses involved in the fracturing of this rib?

Was wondering why astros were calling me today. Told them lilshep is unavailable till September.
Not surprised it's a broke rib. Worst medical staff in baseball

The xray tech the astros use must be legally blind.

Nah, the FO is just liars when it comes to injuries

That shit should be a fineable offense.

At least hockey injury reports are deliberately deceptive with a little gamesmanship thrown in.

Yeah. Every time I hear those hospital ads on the Astros radio network, I'm thinking... "Well, I guess it's true what they say, about there being no such thing as bad publicity..."

guillermo 

brice isn't an mlb ss 

Why not?

He's played more games at SS than any other position in his minor league career, albeit in the low minors. He's played 52 gms at 2B vs 6 gms at SS in AAA this season, partly due to him being blocked by Pena. I understand the knock on his arm at SS but might as well see what you've got now and if it's not working go to plan B.

maybe he's the player called up. if he can keep dubon's glove on the bench, i'd be damn impressed

He's gonna strikeout a lot.  So just prepare yourselves.

Yep. Gonna be interesting to see where they try to hide him to avoid him coming up with 2 outs and runners on.  We’ve been sooo good in that situation this year.

 

he needs to room with Paredes on road trips

Dana, segment 2:

Matthews: need to see him make more contact; combinations of swing decisions and chases a little bit; once he gets to a place he is making really good contact and driving the ball...he is on his way.

Draft: 21st pick; narrowed down a few guys we think will be there.  next pick is at 95, think we'll get a really good play there as there is a lot of depth in this draft.

From two weeks ago…

what has Brice done since?

K’d 28.8% of the time, right in line with his overall minor league average of 29.3%.

so yeah, get ready for more Whitcomb.

You dont call up the guy you are gonna trade emoji48.png. Can't risk him sucking ass.

Whitcomb for the 13th time
 

Dana would never trade his first ever draft pick that he probably just drafted because he went to the Astros Youth Academy.

Also, to bring up Matthews, does someone need to get released? Brice isn’t on the 40 man yet.

Nah, you could transfer guys to the 60 day IL and kick that can down the road.  Yordan isn't on there and he's probably already spent 60 on the DL.  Dezenzo.  Arrighetti.  All those guys could easily be on the 60 man. 
Also- we have some slap dicks on the 40 man roster that could go bye bye and it wouldn't matter. 


Matthews should get the call. It's past super 2 if he stays up and sticks.  If he doesn't you just keep him down next year until May and he doesn't earn the extra year of service time.  Like Kyle Tucker. If yall recall he played a fair bit in 2028 and 2029 (like 75 AB's each year) without earning any service time or even super 2).  

So-best case he belongs and you've solved 2b for 6 years. Worst case he needs more seasoning and you actively fuck with his clock next year and call him up in May if he's ready.

You replying to me? Because no- Pena not to the 60.  Yordan or Arrighetti or some of the other dudes on the 10 or 15 that could be on the 60.

Dubon is your every day shortstop. That should not even be remotely up for discussion.  Slap dick Guilerme is his backup.  Chas comes back and is the 4th OF. Yordan is right around the corner this time without a broken hand. 
Don't be bedwetters, we are completely and totally fine.

Yeah, that would be unbelievable for the Astros. That dude's head was never right this season, hopefully the Astros can un-aggy him.

Off days suck. I just cleaned the house, did the dishes and am grinding through several loads of laundry. Then I have to see a mock where that aggy dude is our pick. Fuck this shit.
