And, also, Kyle Tucker plays there. It really does look like the issue is Baker doesn't see Chas as a viable CF option. And given that, Chas is...
The "they" is fluid - I've wonder if they, the Astros, didn't see Chas as a viable CF. The article seems to indicate that they, Baker, doesn't...
I was also struck by McCormick intimating that *right now,* his relationship with Baker is OK - which hints it hasn't always been good and "OK"...
Arguing Craig Biggio is the greatest Astro, as Hoffman's article does, is moronic.
If Brantley and Alvarez never play the field, how are you getting both of their bats in the line-up? They really do almost have *too* many bats...
I've wondered - in fact, before reading this, I mentioned it in another thread as a possible explanation - if they had cooled on the idea of Chas...
You guys really are babies... Corey Julks has started two games since August 1. He had 16 plate appearances in August. His last three apperances -...
If you asked me to make their line-up, it would absolutely include Diaz and Chas most days. But I also fully recognize I'm not in the clubhouse....
You guys... You lose something to gripe and complain about (DUSTY IS COSTING US THE DIVISION!!!) and just move to the next thing. So, now it's...
I'm not sure what you're arguing? If Biggio is "slightly ahead to more noticeably ahead" - how are Altuve's postseason accomplishments not...
We were far less entitled and jaded in 2019. It's incredible how winning can, in many ways, rot a fan base. I don't know if that survey is a...

.... yeah; that was my entire point. Did you read my post?... Every fan base is (unfortunately) overflowing with irrational, live-or-die maniacs...
And while I'm sure a good many of them threw an absolute fit when he moved Bregman down and put Pena second Monday night - after Bregman started...
I've eaten - and tipped generously - there many a times. Pappadeaux; northside.
FanGraphs has it much closer: 55 to 52.6. (BBREF always over-inflates defense, and Biggio got a bump from BBREF for being a catcher). Biggio got...
I have this longstanding notion that everyone should have to wait tables for at least one Friday or Saturday night shift. (Stay with me...) It'll...
Given how much Biggio's overall numbers plunged in his late-career pursuit of 3K hits, I'm comfortable putting Jose Altuve ahead of Biggio....
Yes, if your argument is that they haven't been playing all 7-8 elite bats regularly when, for whatever the % is (90+%?) of the season, they...
Sorry; I missed "swing" - I was speaking to games back: it cost them one game in the standings; but yes, a two-game swing - you're right. But,...
