There are way too many pitchers on the 40 man rosterEastCoastAgNc said:Niko Goodrum went on the injured list at Triple-A Sugar Land. Joe Perez is still on the IL, too. Taylor Jones and Jake Meyers are beginning their rehab assignments. It leaves the Astros with one available position player on their 40-man roster in case of emergency: J.J. Matijevic

For all the Maldonado defenders of him "calling a great game"…we officially have the worst hitting catchers in baseball history
The Astros are down to two healthy lefthanded pitchers on their 40-man roster: Framber Valdez and Jonathan Bermudez, who has an 8.39 ERA in Sugar Land. Zac Rosscup is still in Triple-A and could be a viable option if Dusty Baker wants a lefty (hint, he does). https://t.co/AYBDDeTWx6

Héctor Neris is appealing his four-game suspension. So he’s available tonight.

As awful as Maldy's offense is (and as much as folks here want him gone), the front office isn't gonna let him go. They are enamored with his game calling and defense, and that will win out over offensive production any day of the week for them. Castro is a DFA candidate by the trade deadline. Remember Click comes from the Rays tree, and they are notorious for their defense and pitching first philosophy.MaxPower said:They can carry each other's bag to the bus out of town.EastCoastAgNc said:There's another guy contributing to that who should be the first to go.Beerosch said:the houston astros catchers also have the lowest average of any teams catcher position in the history of major league baseball. there are 2,632 teams listed on fangraphs. the 2022 houston astros catchers are 2,632nd pic.twitter.com/R4S6uv0Wvr

Not that I agree with the decision, but my best guess is they suspended Dusty and Neris only because someone got hit after a warning. Servais deserved a suspension for having dumbface, but that's a pre-existing condition.redline248 said:
I wish MLB would give the reasoning behind not suspending Servais, since he started the mess.
Weren't they already winning?Mathguy64 said:
Sadly, Servais did his job. He's managing a team that's underperforming and 10 games back the first week of June. He's playing the team in 1st and he's doing what it takes to get his team charged up and mad. It worked.

Hope this gets wrapped up before the new york tour
What are the other big missteps by the front office? Baez is certainly one but can't think of another on Click's watch.f1ghtintexasaggie said:Farmer1906 said:

Jokes aside, if this were to happen, losing any kind of prospect to get him back would be another big misstep by the front office, which had every opportunity to keep him this offseason.

Did we give anything up for either? I don't recall. Agree that both were not big league players.EastCoastAgNc said:iamtheglove said:What are the other big missteps by the front office? Baez is certainly one but can't think of another on Click's watch.f1ghtintexasaggie said:Farmer1906 said:

He was pretty reliable last season. Don't know what happened? Maldy infected him
