Yordan at 6 really helps Tucker and Correa.

I have more issue with Straw being 8 instead of 9,... but I'm sure there's some analytics that would say otherwise.

You don't want him running behind one of the catchers.

Garcia it is.



Also this...
I think Garica likely only starts once (for now) because there are enough off days to bridge to Odorizzi without needing Garcia again.

How often are they both getting on base?

Also...Straw has a better chance to score on Machete base hit than Machete does on a Straw base hit. Especially with 2 outs.

I didn't pay attention to spring training stats, but is Tucker ready to hold down the clean up? Don't get me wrong, I'm a believer, but how is Dusty getting to that decision? (If anyone cares to guess)

IIRC he's had a pretty good spring. From the couple games I watched he was driving the ball oppo quite a bit.

He looked good

A double scores him from first. The other other way not so much. Hell, he steals 2B and a single steals a run. Not the other way.

I understand, but he's much more likely to be on base in front of a good hitter at the 9 spot as opposed to the 8 spot.

Him being on first (or second) in front of Maldonado doesn't matter as much as if he were on base for Altuve, Brantley, etc.

Next year I'll send you a PDF of my multifamily acquisition model rigged up as an Astros model. It'll be cool.

While I don't find it hard to believe a deal won't done be I DO find it very hard to believe we haven't budged of the first offer.

So based on that I'm taking what he says with a large grain of salt

He also said a deal with LMJ was unlikely less than 24 hours before it was announced...

I take that as Breggy knows the extension is happening. Wishful thinking? Sure, but I'll buy it.
