    They should both be sent down until they earn it

    Or most likely they won't be?

    As stated right now.

    I'm already sounding the alarm on Javier.

    2 bad starts doesn't concern me, 42 batters faced and 3 Ks does. Because of who his is and what he makes he'll get a long leash, but a team can't tolerate non competitive starts for long.

    It’s more likely that Javier just sucks.

    Can we send Javier down to Sugarland to work on his command? I still believe that he can be good but he needs to throw strikes more consistently.

    How did Javier look in ST ??

    Radio said his velocity was up today - the issue was location. If he's not getting Ks, he's lacking his normal swings and misses, his bread and butter. Truth be told, he's been underwhelming ever since Dusty kept pushing him in '23. Since around ASB that season, he's been underwhelming.

    I missed the game. Why did Yordan come out after 1 at bat? Please tell me it wasn’t an injury….

    No injury, simply due to getting our asses handed to us.

    Yes. We can’t win them all and we’ve got options for Javier’s spot if he keeps this up.

    Not make or break but Houston really needs to see some progress from Imai from last outing.
