Gonna need 3 in the 9th. Can Singleton pls pinch hit for Maldy
Wasting his pinch hit with nobody on base to lead off instead of this past inning when Abreu came up would be a Dusty move.

Singleton's first AB back as an Astro is going to be against Bautista isn't it?
If meyers got on there it would've been against cano like somebody said but of course it'll be fitting to face the nastiest guy in the league for his first ab leading off the 9th

Abreu is an automatic right side ground ball out on anything with speed. He cannot react fast enough any more. I'll beshockedpissed if he plays out his contract in Houston.
FIFY
Thing is, they'll have a DFA him. No one will take him in a trade. Stick a fork in him - he's done.
He plays 150 games with this team next year. Crane isn't eating $40MM.
I'm not sure they eat the last $20MM

If you trust singleton more than abreu there then you would just start him every game right? Abreu doesn't have the "intangibles" like maldy
Hopefully the next manager isn't married to starting him everyday and is more open to more of a platoon situation at 1st.Mathguy64 said:mwm said:

Was getting Abreu the worst trade since 2015?

Wasn't a trade

Not really a trade so, no.
I'd argue the Mike Fiers/Carlos Gomez trade takes the cakestoneca said:

Edit: As stated above, Abreu wasn't a trade but I still think Fiers/Gomez is the worst trade in the last 8 years
Nice play, Jose
We got 'em right where we want 'em. With El Limp Machete coming up to bat
#1 - re-signing Dusty
#2 - not signing Vasquez
#3 - signing Abreu
Edit: I was thinking this past offseason transactions. Sorry.

And by "platoon" you mean Abreu plays on Sunday and someone else takes Monday-Saturday.
This feels like this week could be it for the AL west title. This team ****ed around all season and now they're getting what they deserve. **** you dusty. You piece of ***** Great chance we're 5-6 games back after this series. Way to ****ing regression you ****s. Now I get to wait for A&M sports to disappoint me.
Well the last time this guy gave up more than 2 runs was 9/24 last year against the Astros ... let's do it again

LFG
Not a strike. Not close.
This guy doesn't need help, blue
F YOU BLUE
Find someone that loves you like DB loves giving first ABs in super high leverage
Big difference between 3-0 and 2-1
Wow
Should be a walk rn
Great AB. Let's do this!
That's a great patient AB.
hey, good eye
Singleton walks
start him at 1st base tomorrow

How long do you want to ignore this user?
He should start tomorrow
Cmon Altuve and Breggy ... someone get on and give Yordan a chance
Singleton did more in 1 AB than Abreu did the entire game
Yep, he's better than Abreu
Altuve needs to be thinking "Chapman".
