Doesn’t sound like amputation was necessary. 
Yordan Alvarez is better. Dusty says they’re hopeful he’s back tomorrow.

So in Dusty speak, that means “Labor Day.”

Best possible lineup they can put together if Yordan is out. 
 

So… is Diaz in the Circle of Dust now? Would he be our DH if the postseason started today? Yordan in LF of course.

this may be strong in confidence but it's lacking in reality imo., Seattle is a very good, young team with playoff experience that has proven the ability to stay hot for a long time.

Enjoy!

If you speak this into existence I will hunt you down and gut you. I’m afraid you might be right. 

[tx 3 putt 78739]

[cabowabo 4692]

Good Lord Jose....

[hornmpa96 2671]

Is this the most “unclutch” Astros defense ever?

[HOOKEM4 5196]

What the fuck dude. 2 games in a row.

[huge 3831]

no blood

[Mitch Hedberg 2117]

Welcome back new Abreu. Same as the old Abreu.

[Dnaguy 12712]

Can someone explain why last night TBS was a blackout and now I can't watch this on MLBTV tonight too?

MLB blackout rules are a fucking beating. Even when they are nationally televised I can't watch them?

Total bullshit.

Yeah but not at night.

It's throughout the day. On the hour. 

Every. single. day.

Weak fly to shallow outfield for an out.

No Esteban Bartman here…move along

Yeah. The organization will thank you for missing out on a rookie of the year and the extra draft pick next year because you’re stubborn ass refused to play him more often than not the first 4+ months of the year.

And Schwab’s company-line reply about “intangibles“ needed at the catcher position that he needs to learn…I’m betting Diaz can still pick those up before games and on the bench between coming up to bat every 2 or 3 innings as the DH and regularly hitting 110+ mph piss rockets.

Nevermind Maldy, absolutely no excuse for him to still be behind guys like Julks and Meyers in PAs with the injuries to Yordan opening up a huge # of DH opportunities.

Urquidy doing urquidy things. Sorry for spelling.

 

Sometimes strikes aren't always the best things to throw.

 

Oh well. Let the office keep scoring.

the ball that Verdugo hit was up and away.  It wasn't a mistake pitch.  It was a great swing of the bat.

[David Dennison 19569]

Come on, dude.

[cabowabo 4692]

Get your shit together Jose. 

[Dnaguy 12712]

[David Dennison 19569]

More runs, please.

[huge 3831]

Great final pitch.

Correct. Not when AT&T sportsnet is also broadcasting and you are in the defined Astros territory.

A friend texted me that since his 2020 deal, Sale has been paid roughly 5 million per start.
