  1. Diaz projects to about 34 HR over 162. That’s a rare catcher.
  2. getvideobot.com-NpxTyjztxbeQHl9Z.mp4
  3. https://twitter.com/chandler_rome/status/1676346465013121024?s=46&t=0NSPXsQuydBFNWpJIm0EQw
  4. Mike Trout out with fractured hamate bone. That’s got to spell an Ohtani trade now. A shame we don’t have the resources. But they would be dumb not to trade him now. Could always still resign him.
  5. Somebody find the person with the voodoo doll
  6. What we learned today: Chas is an everyday player as much as Bregman and Altuve and not playing him as such is managerial malpractice The turnaround of Jose Abreu appears to be complete and here to stay. And just in time. The turnaround of Christian Javier also appears to be real and either he can be fixed or the shopping list just got longer. Brantley is likely done. The All Star break can not get here fast enough Never underestimate the heart of a champion. (Thanks Rudy. It still applies to baseball too)
  7. Not a good at bat by Altuve. Guys on the ropes. See some pitches.
  8. Brantley isn’t coming back. And if he does how brittle is he going to be? Release him, file the insurance and go find an outfielder who can hit.
  9. Best worst inning you can have. Except for the pitch count not too bad
  10. Heim might be a little gun shy lol Windmill makes them pay
  11. I think it’s more the health of his head than his body. He pretty much vanished rather than pitch in playoffs last year. Altuve may have broken him from ever wanting that pressure and smoke again. He’s done well in KC with no pressure. Lights just got turned on but the Altuve nightmares are real.
  12. Rangers just acquired Chapman from the Royals. They are all in.
  13. Could have given Bregman a day off, Abreu a day off or if either one get hurt we aren’t playing some AAAA scrub name Bannon or Madris. And for anybody not named Yordan at DH. It would have been a rental insurance policy for us for a veteran guy. He’s actually doing well at the plate this year. And the Angels got him for an A ball 11th round draft pick pitcher. Could have worse guys on your bench. Oh hey guys on Astros bench. Jeimer Candelario is a similar guy who is a rental and available on a $5mil contract but he may actually make NL All Star team.
  14. If we can’t depend of Framber and Javier we are really fucked.
  15. Madris and Singelton and the OF we had last year in Sugarland that hit like 28 bombs, and players like them, are all the same after they’ve reached a certain age and shown what they are as a player. Tarzan in AAA and Jane in the show. To keep recycling them is a waste of time and space. That being said I hope he proves me wrong and hits 3 home runs tonight. Or even a soft flare over second. Anything. I’ll take that L.
  16. Dana didn’t sound optimistic about any outside help arriving anytime soon. Nothing available at the moment. Boys need to step game up.
  17. Don’t pinch hit with 3 catchers and Diaz on the bench but do it with two catchers and Diaz at DH. Unbelievable.
  18. Shitty Framber after shitty Javier is no bueno.
  19. Yep. The reason a manager runs out there to talk to or argue with the ump is not to get the call overturned, which is what all the Dusty Twitter defenders think and why they don’t blame him for staying in the dugout because it wasn’t going to be changed anyway. The reason is so the player, Stanek in this case, doesn’t get run and you have to burn another arm before the end of the inning. Luckily for Dusty, Stanek held it together long enough to finish his job and then went apeshit and got run. Then Dusty came out after the fact as an afterthought. Or he just woke up or something. Him getting run after the inning was over was just window dressing.
  20. Angels acquired Mike Moustakos from Colorado for a Single A 11th round pick. This is exactly the kind of move the Astros should have made. We have no one to backup first and third and he can do both. 3 time all star batting .270 with 4 HR in 115 ABs. Don’t have to be earth shattering to top our 1B and give Bregman a day off. But we can just keep on signing DFAs and minor league scrubs hoping for miracles. Don’t get it. I’m planning on being on my deer lease in October for the first time in years.
