    It's probably easier for us to make a list of players we wouldn't take over Abreu.

    He isn't really better than anyone on their current roster except maybe Gavin Lux

    Chris Taylor still there?

    I watch to see how they snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

    Mostly all the relievers take turns blowing games.  And every time icono says Espada obviously should have put in the other guy...who just blew a game the day before.

    It's like the old days.  Team sucks, seeing if Altuve can lead the league in hits.

    I miss the old slappy Altuve sometimes.  The 225 hit year was a lot of fun.

    You are seriously underrating what a moron Bo Porter was.  Like- didn't know rules of the game. 1 M Jimy was probably a decent baseball man but I hated him.  Managers I've liked for the Astros:

    Art Howe, Larry Dierker, Phil Garner, AJ Hinch.  Everyone else can fuck themselves. 

    Hal Lanier was good.  Signed my glove when I was 6.

    I missed that. What happened to them?

    FAFO

    Spoiler

    D1Baseball’s Aaron Fitt reported that two unvaccinated NC State players tested positive for COVID-19 this week in Omaha. Per the guidelines, that prompted the NCAA to then test the entire Wolfpack roster, including the vaccinated players. Four NC State players then tested positive, and the NCAA made the no-contest ruling for Saturday’s game.

    Per the NCAA’s Sport Science Institute Guidelines, as reported by Fitt, express the following.

    Fully vaccinated student-athletes and other Tier 1 individuals with no COVID-19-like symptoms may be exempt from routine testing. Student-athletes and other Tier 1 participants who are not vaccinated must continue to undergo testing at NCAA championships.

    If there is evidence of substantial or high transmission in the community, or if there are COVID-19 variants that escape the effect of the vaccine, then testing may need to resume for fully vaccinated individuals. Such decisions will be made in conjunction with local public health authorities and/or federal guidance.

    The updated testing guidance also applies to Tier 2 and 3 individuals who may be subject to testing protocols at member schools and championships. If Tier 2 individuals are not fully vaccinated, they must undergo and document a negative PCR test within two days of arrival, or a negative antigen test within one day of arrival, and undergo daily self-health checks. Further testing is based on symptoms. Tier 3 individuals who are not fully vaccinated must undergo daily self-health checks, with testing based on symptoms.

    Should state or local authorities require testing of vaccinated individuals, their guidance will supersede this policy and vaccinated individuals will be required to be tested.

    There are awful ways to end a season, and then, there’s this. It’s a heartbreaking ending for a team that’s never played in the College World Series final series, and the Wolfpack end the season one game shy of making program history.
