2019 Houston Astros Thread

I definitely think we should keep Stubbs up and let him learn everything and anything from our two veteran catches. 

That’s not happening. No way you waste one of your 3 bench spots on a 3rd catcher. You sometimes see it on a playoff roster only because you don’t carry as many pitchers

I'm watching MLB network and they're talking about the no hitter last night. They had an audio clip from someone - not sure if it was a reporter or someone from another team - but the quote was,  "When the Astros call you about one of your pitchers, you hang up the phone and change your number."

Explain to us what he did wrong.... twice

Bregman was going on contact. Alvarez should have known and been moving to 3B as soon as Seager charged to field Correa’s dribbler. He didn’t.

Good baserunning isn’t predicated on speed. It’s being aware of the situation and knowing that the guy in front of you is going on contact. 

Had been on 3B .. like he should have .. he would have scored on Yulu’s bloop rather than being forced at 3B.
