I would love this.
There was a radio broadcast posted earlier today on X, including 3 interviews—one with Espada. I was listening to it and lost it. Does anyone have...
Honestly, I feel that social media is spinning a lot more drama than we know exists in the clubhouse. Yes, if Espada sticks to his plan of action...
The Astros won 87 games last season with the never present Alvarez, an inconsistent Altuve, a first half no-show Walker, an absent Hader and...
I think Yordan’s voice, coupled with the inability of the FO to get what they wanted for Paredes, will pivot the team to him playing a lot of LF....
Instead, they are moving Yordan to LF. Haha—trading Paredes is an illusion.
Personally, I would be excited to see this lineup daily. Maybe more Cole than Meyers when hot.
It feels like they are already beginning to pivot and plan for Alvarez to play more LF.
Espada is no longer a rookie. Firmly disagree with this take. Espada is not a puppet.
If Paredes is on the roster OD, it is absolutely an Espada decision. With a Paredes trade unlikely due to decreased demand, they will have to pivot.
What if…. Alvarez 90g LF 60g DH Altuve 20g LF 120g 2B 10g DH Paredes 90g DH 10g 3B 40g 2B 10g 1B Walker 150g 1B Pena 150g SS Correa...
Cade Smith would cause ego issues for Hader.
I think Houston traded Sanchez to clear room for a trade deadline deal, and maybe some small space for a veteran C if Salazar struggles.
I am getting tired of hearing of the Astros roster constraints. If a deal comes, it comes. But these untenuous claims are dampening the spirit of...
I wonder if the former hitting coach steered these players the wrong direction.
in the short term, I don’t believe this helps the Astros very much. If they really don’t believe they are contending for a playoff spot, I guess...
I agree. I just want to hear Joe and Dana start talking with confidence about a valid plan for these players.
[MEDIA] Morosi says it is “more than likely that Paredes and Walker are both in camp when ST begins.” IMO, you can’t sell Paredes with a...
I wonder how serious MIL is about getting Paredes.
It may be time for the Astros to have internal conversations about being ready for ST and for Espada to get creative with lineups. Too many trade...
