    Amazing that Singelton plays over Caratini.

    Green and Scruggs both played against the Bears, they looked pretty good as we were moving the ball up and down the field early before all the backups started getting playing time.

    Fuck Aj Hinch.

    Not too mention he wanted to recruit more players at the position and was told no by Sarkisian.

    We really need the ND OT to be the future, because just can't rely on Tunsil/Howard being healthy for a full season.

    Caratini hit a HR, so he's good for another game in one or two weeks.

    They really have no idea what type of offense Klein runs. Howard was a poor scheme fit for what he likes to do. Just look at what Adrian Martinez did the year before, for a more accurate depiction of a Klein offense. Of course, Klein was doing that with a veteran OL that had been developed in the same system for multiple years. The aggy OL sucks in comparison.

    I mean the RB room is fucking stacked with high 4 and 5 star talent. It's not ideal to lose your #1 guy, but that room can absorb the short term loss. If anything, getting more reps for Wisner, Clark, and Gibson isn't necessarily a bad thing.

    Lulz, ESPN. They have become so fucking stupid.

    One more strike, Framber. Let's go.

    Mickey Storey was a 26 year old pitcher in Altuve's 1st full season with the Astros. I'd give him a shot to replace Espada.

    You guys sure put way too much stock into one practive early in fall camp. I bet we see Williams, Barron, and Mukuba walk out onto the field on August 31st for the 1st defensive series and every 1st series of the season after that barring injury.

    Nah, he's fucking awful. Think about last night. Caratini is easily one of your top 5 hitters on the current roster. In a game you lost by 1 run, he batted 1 time and drew a walk to load the bases. However, you let Cabbage, Meyers, McCormick, Singelton, and Dubon come to the plate 12 times and the only positive thing they did all night was a successful sacrifice. Caratini has played plenty of games at 1B, more than fucking Dubon. Even worse, you took your backup catcher completely out of the game, so if you needed to replace Diaz, you had no real catcher left on your bench. At least, with Caratini still in the game at 1B, you could replace Diaz at catcher and you still had multiple options to play at 1B. He has very little critical thinking skills and may be to stupid for the job.

    We love San Diego. Holy shit, that is funny.

    I think the bigger point is that the hitting coaches at the MLB level are fucking awful. Every hitter on the team this year has taken a step backwards. Altuve is about to set a record for most Ks in a single season, and for the 1st time in nearly 4 years has a OPS under .800 Pena's BB rate has cratered after showing significant improvement in year 2. Bregman's BB rate is at a career low. There is no real teaching of situational approaches. Last night, the Rangers were leaving the right side of the INF vacated when we had the bases loaded, and all our hitters were trying to hit Grand Slams instead of trying to hit a single through the gaping hole between Lowe and Semein. The entire organization needs to be cleaned out.

    Yeah, it tells me we aren't serious about making the playoffs, but then again giving 11 ABs to Meyers, McCormick, Cabbage, and Singleton and watching them K in 7 of those ABs, many times with RISP also tells me that as well. Without the help of the Rangers, we would have scored just 1 run tonight. Shit, their closer melted down in the 10th and we could even make him pay.

    I don't think Kwiatkowski's defense is predicated on elite IDL play. He had to last year, but I think he prefers his LBs and Ss to make all the plays while his IDL occupy OL. If our edges are finally havoc makers, the lack of a true difference maker inside will be ok, though I think Collins is going to be a monster for us inside.

    Tell me what, Alemdys Diaz being on the 26-man roster is 100% Espada's decision. He asked for him and got him. You think Dana Brown is thinking that a washed up Diaz is the missing piece considering they have no prior relationship at all.
  19. HtownHorn
    Tonight showed why you can't carry Diaz on this roster. You needed to PH for Dubon in the 7th and didn't all you had was fucking A. Diaz, who hasn't played in two fucking weeks. Just totally inept roster management from Espada. He does nothing at a below average level as a baseball manager. It's amazing that everyone in baseball is laughing at the Astros continuing playing Meyers, Dubon, Singleton, McCormick, and Cabbage while carrying Diaz on the roster with the complete knowledge he's never going to play in the game. No other team in baseball would give everyday playing time, or in some cases any playing time to those 6 guys. You are acting like Espada would play him, when he have plenty of evidence that Espada didn't and wouldn't.
  20. HtownHorn
    Gus/Augieball for the win.
  21. HtownHorn
    If you are bunting Meyers, you better PH for McCormick with Caratini.
  22. HtownHorn
    How the fuck is Diaz not at 3rd base? This team is just fucking horrible at running the bases.
  23. HtownHorn
    Lulz. It's time to move on from both of these guys that can't throw worth a shit.
  24. HtownHorn
    I think aggy is starting 2-2 going into the Arkansas. That locker room is going to crater if they lose that game as well.
  25. HtownHorn
    aggy being 2-2 going into Arkansas is going to funny,
