Find the post where I said that. What I've said, repeatedly, is that Julks started well and, consequently, played. Then Chas got hurt and he...
You fear Baker will sit Diaz half the games, despite him starting 70% of them the past two months - and you think that makes *your* point?... As...
Chas missed about of a month of the season and then posted a sub .600 OPS for the month of May after his return. So, your statement is...
Right. He made the team and played early, and then, when his performance declined, he played less until injuries forced him back into the line-up....
Almost every word of this is such utter bullshit if, I'm correct in assuming, you're refencing the 8/20 game they lost to Seattle, 7-6? Let's...
When have they intentionally limited themselves to 5-6 impact bats and left 2-3 on the bench??? None of you seem to be tethered to reality....
Did last year's Astros offense follow Jose Altuve's lead?...
They were 48-29 when Julks started, a 101-win pace, which far exceeds their overall pace. Where are these 3-5 games they threw away playing Julks?...
This was always my point: we've been so spoiled, I don't think fans appreciate how rare it is to have more than 4. 5 elite bats. Look at other...
And baseball really isn't - and never has been - conducive to day to day scrutiny. It's just too long a season.

You said "BOTH" as if they're equal. There are not equal. I understand why fans hold playoff results on a higher pedestal - but they really are...
I never said playoffs don't matter. I said playoffs - which are much smaller sample sizes - don't invalidate 10x more regular season results. I...
You really think if Jeremy Pena has a couple of more elite-level postseasons - not regular seasons but postseasons.... that he would be better...
He's not there yet. His JAWS numbers are below HoF standards, and if you look at his BBREF comps, it's Pedoria, Hanley Ramirez, Nomar... And,...
Yeah; from my perspective: Bagwell is the best but I totally understand if Altuve is your favorite. And if Altuve can put together... 3 more...
https://x.com/adamjwexler/status/1696894198169903578?s=46&t=CWOTqPOUwWjPPsUgt0SujQ Knew in May their projected starting LG might miss significant...
But... it's really not. Bagwell has 129 career postseason plate appearances. Do you realize that's roughly the total of a single month of...
