  1. I was talking about Reddick.  170 PAs doesn't mean much.  But the same applies to Tucker's brief look.

    That seems like very large sample size. I can’t find a ranking of playoff PAs for active players but that has to be way up there.

  2. Maybe in the ALDS, but they’ll carry 12 pitchers in the 7 game series. At least they have in the past.

    All 3 recent ALDS, they’ve carried 11 pitchers. Both ALCS been 12. My question remains. Who’s the other addition besides Straw
  3. Tucker is not going to be on the playoff roster unless there is some injury issues.

    Assuming 11 pitchers and no Stubbs, who else makes the roster besides Straw? There’s really no good infielder options . That’s why I think Tucker is a real possibility.
  4. Or the Astros fans who showed up in 2015.

    You missed the point. He’s talking about becoming fans of a team located hundreds if not thousands of miles from where they live with little to no personal connection. . Probably not a lot of Astro fans outside of their region.
  5. "they're just jealous because we got 27 world series titles."
    - 27 year old from Del Rio, Texas. 

    He’s been alive for exactly 1 of those. Hell, the Marlins have more championships in his lifetime.
  6. Don’t bother with beau or anyone else on this board when it comes to the Yankees. They are all schleppers blinded by hatred & jealousy, because the teams they like don’t have 27 championships. I learned to deal with it years ago.

    I think all the schleppers actually hate obnoxious Yankee fans like you much more than they hate the Yankees.

  7. there's no way reddick isn't making the playoff roster over tucker. him patrolling RF in the playoff and navigating that wall alone is a huge plus IMO. 

    Not talking about Tucker in lieu of Reddick but in addition.
  8. We need speed and defense off the bench in the playoffs, not sure tucker brings that 
    no way in hell you put a rookie with zero at bats this season on the playoff roster 

    So who else besides Straw, assuming we only roster 11 pitchers?
  9. The Astros carried 14 position players in last year’s ALDS. Straw is a given for 1 of those spots. If Tucker does well in September, he’ll probably get the other. If we had a decent infielder option that would be my choice but we don’t.

  10. Garrett Stubbs sighting.  Why hasn't he been sent down yet with Chirinos playing again?

    I’ve had the same question. I guess they just didn’t fell the need before Pressly gets activated this weekend. Kind of surprising as this management team seldom misses an opportunity to gain even the slightest edge.
