Well... walking onto the field, dropping trow & taking a **** on the mound would be very tangible. And not remotely close to sitting on your couch...
To answer your question: in his last 18 postseason appearances, the Astros have led/trailed by 3+ in 10 of them. Of course. All for younger &...
I didn't ignore anything; I focused on the same point he did: Maton made six appearances this postseason; the Astros were leading/trailing by 3+...
The context was why he'd favor Maton, and one of the three reasons given was that he's "been absolutely nails in the postseason." A0 that's not a...
Do you know what "intangible" means?... Mostly! But what happens on a field of play at least has tangible results. Trying to armchair diagnosis...
You asserted Kyle Tucker "doesn’t appear to be a heavy contributor to the intangibles of the team," and when asked for any evidence whatsoever to...
Do I really have to draw the distinction between Pressly's postseason appearances and Maton's? They're the same thing to you? What are you, his...
I got yelled at a lot for defending Dusty here - not all pitchers have personal catchers but those that do... Pitching is mental, as much as it is...

I think it's smart to invest in your bullpen. But relievers, especially what I would call second-tier relievers (so... not Ryan Pressly or Bryan...
What in the wide world of sports are your concerns about Kyle Tucker???
Was Jeremy Peña’s ‘22 postseason more than a hot streak?…
Dusty definitely sounds more than a tad salty and petty, which isn’t the usual vibe when you’re happily retiring. Makes me think this wasn’t...
Yes. I'm well aware the players listed did not all collectively leave at the same time following the 2019 season. But they all left prior to the...
I'm not terribly interested in whatever gotcha game you think you're playing here. If you think the Astros gained better players than Gerrit...
I would put OF high on the list. It'll be interesting to see how Brown's regime views McCormick. There was a ball in game 7 (may've been game 6?)...
