Don't you do it Yuli

Some of you guys don't have a lot of reading comprehension. I'm not pining for White, just saying we shouldn't give up with no return. If Yordan keeps hitting clearly he has to go.

Take a look at the numbers, you'll see Yuli is not much better than White. This is already been discussed ad nauseam.

good job Yuli

Joshua to finish this afternoon

You've said over and over that White was going to be a productive mlb player.

And I still think that, but that's not pining over him. That's just agreeing with what everybody in this organization still thinks.

Also a big difference between a "productive major league player" and what we have, which is one of the best lineups in history when healthy. Right now he's overweight and can't play the field and you're out of your mind if you sacrifice Yordan's development for him.

That's probably not far off what you think but it's always easier to make fat jokes than to actually read.

Josh James nibbling at guys with 2 strikes and a 4 run lead.

And now we have to burn osuna.


James is frustrating AF

Having to watch O's broadcast and Jim Palmer is their color analyst. He was losing his mind with James toying around with offspeed stuff with a 4 run lead and needs 1 more out.

Said he still has that starter mentality and thinks he needs to use all 4 pitches instead of ending the game

At least off day tomorrow and only 4 pitches.

He's clearly better across the board, but he's not exactly lighting it up.

Since you accuse me of not reading, I'll try to recap your position and my comment that reignited this topic.

Yes, you have been consistent that Tyler shouldn't be dropped for nothing, and that he and Yuli have been (or will be) similarly productive. Also, I believe you've stated (paraphrasing) that due to his increasing age Yuli is less valuable than Tyler, at similar production. Then in your lineup you leave Yuli out.

My comment was more about how I perceived your willingness to be patient with Tyler so far this season, but instantly ready to remove Yuli.

Just struck me as a little funny. Don't mean to start a real argument.

Will we ever get healthy?

Yeah, that about sums it up.

I think everyone is pretty tired of rehashing this argument, myself included. I am officially retiring as White's public defender.

Go Yordan, Go Stros.

is Correa's masseuse overseeing the hamstring rehab?

Why does Correa keep having to "clear the air" on this rib thing? Do people think he went sky diving or something?

checking in with the AL East...how about the Rays.

march into Fenway and win 3 of 4...move back into 1st place in the division
