All I do is Nguyen said:
If julks keeps hitting like this idk how we keep him out of the lineup for any extended period. I'm really happy for him
Julks was a 2017 Astros draft pick

so if he turns into a good solid player...that's another...

Brantley and Yordan will both be playing when MB comes back. It's going to be difficult for Julks to get a lot of time in the lineup once MB is healthy.

At this point it certainly seems he should be the first outfield/DH off the bench once our lineup is healthy.

I feel he's earned that over the alternatives.

When Brantley comes back I hope Yulks could play center.. let Myers and Chaz come into spell outfield starters needing a break ..

Chas needs to stay the starter until he's either injured or inept. Also Brantley will need a lot of days off when he comes back. Age and injury history are not in his favor

High risk pregnancy, 2 small children, and traveling on an airplane. That's your problem right there, Anthony.

So I can see both sides of this so I don't feel strongly one way or the other about who's in the right here.

But he tweets 'Thank you all for the support...'

Support for what? You're wife (right or wrong) had to pick up some popcorn. WTF do you need support for? Was she injured or is there something you're now having to go through as a result of this?

GTFO with support

I'm not saying Julks can't play center, but it's worth pointing out that he played more games at third in the minor leagues than center field.

I mean they were down like 8 runs…I don't think Blummers comment was anything more. If it was it was an extreme reach.

This

That's typical lingo for a reliever coming on in a not close game.

This is exactly how you become poor after you retire and need a new job instead of enjoying baseball retirement...

It's wild The Athletic went two years without a beat writer for one of the best teams (if not THE best team) in a major sport
