I gave it a star because I thought it was funny (like most people probably did)... It was Reggie Jackson claiming Altuve would have won like 9 straight championships. It was so obviously satire that I think most of the crowd around here could figure it out. Give them some credit.HersheyMonroe said:Buck Compton said:You don't say?!?!HersheyMonroe said:jkag89 said:Reggie Jackson says Jose Altuve is more clutch than Derek Jeter:

When it gets 15+ stars I think you're in the minority who knew
Satire or not its whatever, I mean they play different positions so Altuve would never be filling in for Jeter....but on the topic of Altuve winning on the Yankees, I don't think that is a ridiculous statement. Those teams were so stacked that he darn sure wouldn't have hurt anything and the dude is an absolute playoff gamer.Buck Compton said:I gave it a star because I thought it was funny (like most people probably did)...

But he wouldn't have been what he was on the Yankees. He was a great player...but he wasn't carrying the team. He was the leader, he did great things but they won the way they did because of the collective not because of Jeter alone or Jeter and one other player (if he had been with Biggio).helloimustbegoing said:
Or the Astros could have drafted Jeter and had him and Biggio play together for 12 years as the greatest middle infield combination of all time (with all due respect to Kaz Matsui and Miguel Tejada)
he wouldn't have needed to carry the team with Bidge, Bagwell, and later Berkman then.Lonestar_Ag09 said:But he wouldn't have been what he was on the Yankees.

I don't understand why you all keep pushing this! It does not matter that he is ready of that he is good enough, he isn't on the 40 man roster, we already have guys about to be added who HAVE to be on the 40 man, we already have a log jam at SP....Deluxe said:
Still wondering when we're going to get our first Hunter Brown look. Seems like we'd want to give him audition before we finalize our trade deadline needs. Maybe we didn't want to give the White Sox, Yankees or Mets a look at him. Starting Friday, we've got Angels, Royals, Angels and A's leading up to the All Star break. That might be a good time to break him in and let one of our other starters rest.

In the paraphrased words of mean girls, Stop trying to make (Hunter) happen, its not going to happen!
The idea of packaging I agree with, personally id like to see us trade some guys on the 40 for some younger guys who are not. The dudes on there are either fully contributing or never going to.MaxPower said:
Need to be packaging some of these guys to get a real 1B, backup catcher and possibly OF.

Chas probably didn't even have time to unpack back in Sugar Land. I assume he'll be called up.
Chas McCormick has been called up with Michael Brantley going to the IL, per Dusty Baker on @SportsTalk790

The last time the Astros played a game at Citi Field was the final day of the 2014 season, with Jose Altuve winning his first batting title that day.

Tom Lawless was interim manager, and the next day the Astros hired A.J. Hinch.

From the @astros: Martín Maldonado became the first catcher in MLB history to catch multiple combined no-hitters.

Martín Maldonado has the entire Astros' pitching staff — coaches included — huddled in a meeting in left field right now. Maldonado doing all the talking.
