    Good. Sign him for 2021, and we never have to see him wearing red stockings.

    Wow on Ryan Thompson. Good for him. Between Thompson, Elieser Hernandez, and Yohan Ramirez, that’s 3 young arms who never ranked in Houston’s Top 30 prospects that are on opening day rosters.

    Ken Giles tasked with protecting a 2-run lead for the Jays against Tampa. After getting the first two outs, he loads 'em. Down 3-1 in the count, he's pulled for Brian Moran (brother of former Astro Colin). Moran gives up 2 runs. Sends it into extras. Moran with the blown save, but Giles charged with the runs.

    Would you trade Joe Biagini for Ken Giles? :D

    Wow. Fast fall. Thought he would be one that came back to bite the stros. 3.8 fWAR as a 27 year old.

    No idea what's going on with him outside of poor performance, but I'd look at taking a flyer on him as a reclamation project

    Not sure what is going on with him, but he's throwing 90 mph these days....sometimes. With the wind.

    Under the circumstances, so would I. Braves seem to think he lost his stuff, and his velocity is down, but as early as it is, and as screwed up as spring training was, I’d take a flyer on him for sure.

    Well, that's not ideal. Haven't seen him pitch in a while, was really thinking more for next season, with a full offseason and ST.

    I'm watching Folty's game right now. If we can get him for nothing and get the Braves to pay for him to pitch in Houston... fine. So far in the 1st he topped out at 93. Don't we have 4 spots open on the 60 man roster?

    Considering all the sore arms we need every bit of help we can get.

    Glasnow was the opponent pitcher. Absolutely nasty.

    Didn't realize McHugh opted out of season due to elbow. Something is weird going on with everyone's elbows...
