I think you're vastly overrating this line-up beyond Altuve/Alvarez/Tucker. Every other bat - including Bregman* - is hovering right around...
The '22 team was a much better team; they needed help on the margins. This year's team has much greater - and more overt - needs. They don't have...
There are not near enough rumors up in here; this isn't a ******* drill, people! Deadline is in five days. I need rampant speculation, bullshit...
I don't, obviously, regret the decision. But... landing in Houston, with DeMeco and Slowick and the weapons around him... His rookie year might've...
Meyers had a very hot stretch the first three weeks of May. Since May 25, his OPS is .596. He's an elite glove playing a premium position so,...
I never, not once, said it didn't matter, and I certainly didn't deflect. I addressed it directly, stating it wasn't relevant and then explained...
You’re not only an incredibly dense human being but also, apparently, a stalker. I’m starting to wonder if I should be worried? I mean, I wrote...
You’re trying to equate a player not making the All-Star team to a player not getting HoF votes. One is selected by fans/managers; the other by...
Also, the one rep/team hurt him, as the Angels, White Sox, Mariners & A's best players were all pitchers. (This may also apply to Yates & the...

Baseball writers have nothing to do with the All-Star selections. Managers and coaches vote on the Gold Glove, not baseball writers.
This is such a tired narrative. Do you know how many MVPs Derek Jeter - Mr. Yankee, himself - won? Zero. In fact, since 2000, the Astros have won...
Where are these corrupt anti-Astro voters? The Astros have had three consecutive top 5 finishes in MVP voting since the scandal, including Altuve...
This is very likely lighting - but I hope it's actually the team realizing they made black jerseys and lightening the navy ever so slightly. I've...
He finished 2nd in MVP voting last year. He’s a finalist for All-Star starter. There’ll always be boos - but the narrative around him has...
We saw this play out last year, as the Astros too often sent these average bats to the plate in crucial situations during the ALCS. Three Astros...
The regular season is long. You face below-average pitching the majority of the time. The Astros' line-up is good enough to win in that context. I...
That's objectively not true. Singleton and Pena are both currently posting sub-.700 OPS. Our first bat off the bench - Chas - has a .617 OPS....
Let it go, man. He's gone. They were a game away from the World Series with Abreu - he's not the issue you so desperately want him to be. Hell,...
They've played 13 games since DFA'ing Abreu. It would be remarkably foolish to apply greater meaning to those games than the previous 70. Not to...
