Among non-pitchers with at least 1,000 games played and 3,000 plate appearances Martin Maldonado’s .206 career batting average is the worst in MLB history.

Amazing.

The 1000 games played is the qualifier that get's him the worst, but even on AB's or PA's he's up there.

Todays a good day to make a trade. Stroman blew ass yesterday so maybe we can take a AA player out of the deal now

As long as it isn't for Lance Lynn 

Angels are going to need a full rebuild after this season, so might as well take a chance with Ohtani before he leaves for nothing in FA. Their off-season should include trading Trout with the Rendon kicker to get out of both of those contracts.

 

The Angels basically traded Lee and Arrighetti for Giolito and Lopez.

Get healthy 

Find another pitcher (on top of urquidy). Arms that we have need to get back on track

Make a run

Two games out with two months, a top 2 seed is very doable. 

 

I mean, yeah, add Yordan, Altuve, Urquidy, and Stroman to a team that was already on pace to win 90.  And let's fucking go.

Still need a bat. Have got to get Julks/Meyers/Dubon spot out of the lineup with a legit hitter.

LF/CF don't care. Just get someone better than these guys....which shouldn't be hard

First person who says ThAtS bRaNtLeY can meet me at old Astroworld site at 9pm to get shanked

Is LMJ out for good for 2023?

I believe that Lance McCullers will contribute to the Astros right around the time Forrest Whitley contributes to the Astros.

Lynn is most likely going to TB. They’re pretty deep in talks. 

Verlander + 20 million for Luis Garcia, who says no?

Garcia wouldn't play until 2025, so not sure what good he would for the Mets.  Maybe 3rd team that is rebuilding (like the Yankees lol)

Garcia went under the knife in early May. It's typically a 12-15 month rehab. He should be back next year by the ASB at the latest.  Unless something goes wrong with his rehab.  


Joey gallo 

.221 ops last 30 games, .141 batting avg 

that’s not going to get runs across the plate

It will at least 22% of the time with the bases loaded.

Quero is a lot more highly thought of than Lee.  Equivalent Astros package would have been closer to Gilbert and Arrighetti.

Yeah what i had seen from people is Angels overpaid significantly for 2 rentals.

Not shocked

Angels gonna Angels and Chi wouldnt move Giolito this quick unless they knew they were fleecing someone

Cy Young was a better hitter

Just noticed that as well.

surprised we didn’t have a celebration when Maldy passed Young in career hits earlier this year

No, that logic is as dumb as humanly possible. He's right about that.

Ok Mr Pitcher, that’s fine and dandy when you’re ERA is below 3. When it starts looking like 6 you can STFU and throw to Diaz because then we need offense to cover up your shit pitches.

This lefty is really impressing me.

 

Verlander talk heating up now that Mets traded Robertson

He is going somewhere, but has a no trade clause so pretty much gets to decide on the spot

Astros trade for verlander …

surly thread ….

I gave no thought to Singleton ever coming up as he’s never been able to do anything in the bigs but he just absolutely is destroying AAA pitching this year. I’m getting curious.

He most likely wouldn’t be worth a shit.  But every time he makes contact the ball has a chance of leaving the yard; that’s probably worth having him on the bench for pinch hitting scenarios that present a favorable matchup.

Suffice to say I’d rather see Singleton at DH than Madris.

Yeah. I’d guess I’d much rather have him up there hacking than Sigh Madris if we have to have a lefty.

Altuve, Breg, Alvarez, King Tuck, Singleton-DH, Chas, Abreu, Diaz, Pena 

If we could get this lineup in the next week or 2, that wouldn't suck.. But I'm sure it's a dream..

What did he do now?

Being a patronizing prick while defending Maldy as the everyday catcher. 

He’s defiantly not team maldy but when you’re covering the team daily you should choose your words wisely 

Astros 1st, 8th and 9th rounders from the draft.

Just remember that we win with Bligh.  Alvarez since his comeback:  0-1.

 

Of course, the reason Bligh is such a winner is that his teammates play better because they know he sucks.

Stop with Singleton. He is a AAAA star. He should not see the Astros lineup. He had a .325 ops with Milwaukee this year

He is team contrarian.

he is team pissing me off on off days.

I just want to see a legitimate upgrade at SP and one bat. If we throw in another reliever that won’t hurt either but I’ve set my expectations to nothing big happening.
