    I snuck on to the field and did the same thing, spreading my Dads ashes out in RF in 2019. We used to watch 50+ games a year together in section 134. Made me a Stros fan since birth. He had the best s

Probably wants his broken hand to 100% heal first 

Yeah. After the nonsense of “we’re just waiting on Yordan to tell us when he’s ready……what’s that? He actually had a broken hand? Whoopsie daisy…“

it’s not up to Yordan in when he’s allowed to pick up a bat again.

i'd trade abreu. someone will get very pay for him 

And he will dominate us in October

No thanks.

 

he’s in a shitty stretch. Happens to just about every reliever over 162.

he’ll be fine, but sucks right now 

This is what happens when you pitch around the dude who launched one to the moon off you two nights ago.

he needs to be first arm out, not the set up guy

Who’s your setup guy in this scenario…that can beat an ERA under 2 in high leverage situations?

Yall are insane. He’s pitched 33 times and given up runs in 3 of them. 
respect the process.

Dumb that he didn’t steal on the first pitch of the Paredes AB. You don’t string hits together against a guy that good. 
dont care what his era is. 

Sparks just told a story that Kemp is on the A's pregame now and this series he said that Altuve was one of the best teammates he ever had.

Booooooo.  Boooooo.

In two appearances with the Rays: 2 IP. No baserunners allowed 

He has only given up runs to the Rays in his entire professional career. 
they playing 4D chess boys.

He’s a national fucking treasure. This is the worst timeline.

We need more likable former teammates to get media jobs.

what’s Brantley up to? Do the guardians have any openings?

Marisnick got any connections to the Marlins?

how can McHugh get more airtime than just pre/postgame Braves broadcasts?

I’m more mad that we fucked around so much this game and are going to lose. Terrible situational baseball 2 innings in a row.

I can't wait to hear the explanation.

This is the same dude that had Hader warming up with 2 outs in the b9 up 11-4. The explanation is he’s a dumbass.

He’ll say he liked Hader against the lefty Kurtz and his .143 BA/ .179 SLG against lefties more than righty Urias’ .219 BA/.313 SLG against lefties 

 

bitch at Espada all you want for the decision, but once it’s made, your pitcher has to execute better than throwing that 4th pitch in nearly the same (meatball) spot as the first.

I'd still walk him. For the double play.

The horror. The horror.

Urias’ sprint speed is shit (17th percentile).

That probably was the play, but counting on Altuve to make a do or die turn after the debacle in the 6th would have been asking a lot.

Run differential of +13 for the series, but split the series.

Cosmic payment for that Rays series came due pretty quickly.

That was a good read.  It is in fact hard to hit with a broken hand.  I am hoping the 1st round pick catcher they have in the minors works out long term.  Yainer is a bad catcher and has the body type that's going to lean toward fat as he ages.

I think Yainer could be the answer at 1B when we give up on Walker if the other guy gets ready. Like- maybe 2027 Yainer moves to 1B most days and back up catcher for 40 or 50. 
I think there's a ton of talent in Yainers bat and I think it comes out- but maybe not. I don't mean 750 ops- that's pretty much a guarantee to my way of thinking- I mean 850 or 900 and knocking on the door of MVP if he does that at catcher.  Like- Pena type year this year.

Deep dive on batting order and whose getting "lucky", who we should expect to outperform their expected stats, whose getting "unlucky" and who we should expect to underperform their expected stats.  

Enjoy.  Read, subscribe, share etc.

That was a good lunchtime read.

good stuff. Cautiously optimistic the end analysis plays out.

the Altuve and parades numbers vs expected are crazy. I agree Altuve’s career numbers are such a large sample size you have to assume seasonal numbers will continue to follow the same but I’ll always worry Father Time catches him and he turns into garbage. 4.5 more years is a loooong time.

but I guess the next 4.5 months are all we care about now
