Not Astros related but damn this is embarrassing for a title contending team
Prior to last night, their lowest attendance was about 6500. And that was with a hurricane in the forecast and a garbage team. This is truly embarrassing for that franchise.

Florida deserves no baseball teams
It's only fair to point out that his ERA is 0.00.Quote:
I'd be fine with White if he had any other redeeming skill set.
But...
He's fat
He's slow
He's poor defensively
He can't run well on base
Everyone knows my stance on White, I don't think anyone really wants to hear more of the same.bearkatag15 said:
Where is Harry at? Dude needs to try to defend this piece of ****
Some joke to be made about Eve being made from a rib of Adam's...n_touch said:
Trying to find video, remember Carlos said the one place he would be embarrassed to be seen was at Adam & Eve, maybe they went shopping over the holiday weekend?
I guess this just doesn't seem that interesting to me. Doesn't really tell us anything except that she's maybe a bit stressed that her superstar husband is hurt and can't do what he loves (and what he gets paid for)Aggie8587 said:
Never posted something from twitter here before, but Daniella Rodriguez (Carlos's girl) posted a very interesting Instagram photo. Not speculating, just thought it was weird given the timing of her fianc's injury
I've actually been to a game there and it was an unbelievable value. I took my FIL and we toured the Ted Williams (the REAL Ted) HOF museum that's located there for a few innings (not Fenway since they didn't have room and pi$$ed him off). It was really cool.titanmaster_race said:bearkatag15 said:

Because, despite what everyone thinks here, Astros management may not think Alvarez is MLB ready yet.R-Dog said:
Once the service time thing passes, there's really no excuse for not bringing up Alvarez. I don't care if he is a liability in the field. We show no urgency towards the regular season (and shouldn't) in regards to our injuries.
So why be so concerned if Alvarez is a liability defensively? Who cares if you lose a game or two because of his defense if you're willing to give away games here and there out of an abundance of caution on injuries? Get him up here and find out whether he can take the next step and be someone you can count on in the postseason. White's LCS strikeout last year without taking the bat off his shoulder...just like tonight ..proves he cannot be counted on.

It's about the June 2nd deadline. If they think Alvarez and Tucker aren't ready but these other guys are then they are nuts.
I still don't think they're gonna do it June 2nd or even shortly after.Ag_07 said:
That was back before we were a MASH unit and before it was confirmed that Tyler White is hot garbage.
There's a need now.
But I do agree that Tucker has probably made them think twice about bringing him up.

I think White's problem is more mental than anything.
So many times he's flinching and check swinging at called strikes. Like he sees it but can't commit and pull the trigger.
Like an insane amount of times. Does someone keep the check swing stat?
For sure it's mental.Ag_07 said:
