Stat line

I didn't look at the starting line up and just noticed no Jeremy Pena.

Mother and Child Joe, what the fuck are you doing and I don't care what the situation is, when you have 15 games to go in a season in which you are tied for first and the only way you are making the play offs there is no fucking excuse for a paid athlete to not be at there short of death.

Crane needs to clear out the orange slice and participation trophy mentality from this club.

Most fun I've had watching a game in a while, but this is the shit that frustrates me the last 2 months. We'll do this tonight, but either get 2 singles and 0 runs tomorrow, or lose 3-2 after getting 10 hits and taking 4 walks but going 2-13 with RISP.

Counter, counterpoint, a rookie is carrying this club tonight.  

Best players need to be on the field at the end of the year, not as if he didn't have a nice long break middle of the season .

The obvious answer is Melton is a better prospect .

I typed exactly this message and then got distracted by Atlanta talent

Astros are going to have some very interesting decisions after this season if Cole becomes any type of player. They are going to have a surplus of MLB bats.

Hahahaha

what?

we’ve been bemoaning the offense for most of the year but if Cole becomes any type of player we turn to having a surplus of bats?

Zach Cole's home run at 114.3 mph off the bat was the third-hardest-hit ball in play by an Astros hitter this season, per Baseball Savant. Yordan Alvarez has the only two harder-hit, singles at 115.4 and 114.4 mph off the bat.

We've been bemoaning the hitting coaches as they are not good, but when fully healthy there are a lot of MLB bats on the 26 man roster.

Diaz, Caratini, Walker, Paredes, Correa, Pena, Altuve, Alvarez, Smith, Sanchez, Meyers, Cole, Urias, and Dubon. That's 14 but more importantly you have 5 spots for 2B, DH, and the OF and you have 9 guys that play those positions.

Lol

Gonna need more than that.

What does “this year” mean?

back by Sept 28 (end of regular season)?

back by Nov 1 (game 7 of World Series)?

back to West Palm Beach by Dec 31 for some sort of offseason voluntary workouts?

Sounds like my fantasy baseball team this year. A bunch of mediocrity that is good enough to be on a team but your lineup can only absorb 1, at most 2, of them and you never know which bat is going to be hot so you risk sitting that one and starting the ofer…

Which is not an enviable position to be with Espada making the decisions.

So if that’s what you’re saying I agree. But if you’re saying that’s a good problem to have, not sure I can get there

All the love for Cole, no love for his travelling buddy, Colton Gordon?

first career save in a game he entered with his team up 11-0(!) and one in which he gave up 3 runs over 4 innings
