This postseason has become more sentimental for me and my wife's family.  My father in law is the biggest Astros fan I know.  He watches every game without fail, even DVRing them if he can't watch liv

He has very quick hands and power when he connects. I hope tears up AAA

prime trade bait 

He’s more valuable to us than what he would bring in a trade I think. 
the guy is very fast and the best defensive OF in baseball. That’s a really good guy to have on your 40 man bc that’s a guy guaranteed a playoff spot that’s way more valuable than the prototypical 26th dude on the roster. 
we got him last year for free, so that kind of shows his trade value isn’t likely yo be really high.

This is probably right. 

He's still one of the best defensive OF and the return won't be anything great.

You could score there with a bunt and the way Castro is swinging I would take my odds getting a bunt down over anything else. 

with a shit hitter, in the old days a Pitcher in that spot, ALWAYS bunt the runner over to 2nd to get 2nd and 3rd and 1 out. Avoid the DP and have 2 shots at 2 runs. It's really a no brainer people.

Suicide squeeze works sometime in JV ball

It's like people think the bunt is outlawed. You have 2 shitty hitters in a row, nothing should be off the table to try to get that runner in from 3rd. With a bunt, Castro's chances of making contact would have increased.

You didn't need a suicide squeeze either. 

They were giving up the run the way the infield was positioned. If the bunt gets down on a safety squeeze the run gets home.
