Is it too late to get Click back?
Montero has to be moved to mop up duty for games out of hand in either direction

Can he play 1B?
This game was even more depressing than Colin Raye's depressing AF 1994 single "Little Rock".

Abreu and Montero were not on Brown's watch, were they?
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

Remember when Dusty tossed Stanek in a blowout instead of using it to build confidence for Montero, who he brought in tonight to implode instead?

They were Jim Crane signings.
Turns out Jim does a better job when he hires a competent GM and let's them make decisions...I can sorta forgive him for Abreu (kinda....last year may have been his typical 40+ age decline), but Montero getting a monster contract after 1 good (lucky) season while the rest of his career has been garbage? Recency bias at its finest.

No, I don't think so.
I'm sure at the very least he can button his jersey all the way up.Wabs said:JPN06 said:

I member.
Don't worry boys, tomorrow's SP has an excellent 3.07 ERA so we might actually score some runs.
At least the Ags beat Tennessee today.
The Abreu contract you can understand, guy had a body of work; and we never knew he would drop off this far.
The montero contract is nuts. Dude had one good year and we increase his salary by 450% and make it for 3 years. Idiotic

Dusty Baker said Jose Altuve was feeling sick. He’s being evaluated.

Ugh not a good day
- Astros lose
- Stars gave up and got shelled
- My dog is sick
- A hunter shot my parent's beloved pet pig over the weekend
That’s now a .472 on-base percentage with nine walks to eight strikeouts in Double-A for Drew Gilbert. The lefty held a .421 OBP across 95 plate appearances in High-A. https://t.co/G1x4s9hIJB

He's going to be on the big league club by the end of the season.
He may be in the lineup by the freaking All-Star break
Asked this last nigjt but can dubon play first? If this keeps up who else can play first? Diaz? Yordan?

Abreu will be in the lineup until at least the ASB. We have a minimum of 6 weeks left of this. My only hope is that Dusty moves him down in the lineup. To like 7 or 8.

Almost like Milwaukee is a 1st place team, and we aren't at the moment.
Almost like Astros fans have extremely short memories and spout off whatever they feel at the moment.

There's been way more than "moments" with the Abreu comments. Pretty much nightly for the past month or so.

I member.
Years ago I worked with an older man from piney woods of East Texas. He used that word a lot... "yeah, I member that." I asked him once if he meant to say he remembered. He replied, "Naw, that's when I member it a second time."
Well, ok then. Haha.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

Was he ever forecasted to be this good? How the heck did we sign him
He was our first round pick last year... 27 other teams picked other playersAggiEE said:Wabs said:Farmer1906 said:That’s now a .472 on-base percentage with nine walks to eight strikeouts in Double-A for Drew Gilbert.

Usually even the first rounders don't seem to progress so quickly and successfully, especially that low in pool
Just another case of Astros having an embarrassment of riches in finding another Tucker replacement for when he goes off to sign a mega deal
Just like we had a JV replacement waiting in the wings

Lots of Bagwell hate on the thread lately....
At least 4 distinct Bagwells that I am able to separate:
Bagwell Astros HOF player
> Bagwell Ambassador for Astros and CoH
>>>>> Bagwell Color Commentator
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Bagwell Astros Front Office Guy
Bagwell Astros HOF player
> Bagwell Ambassador for Astros and CoH
>>>>> Bagwell Color Commentator

Exactly this!
Hell, I liked Ausmus as a player but he is absolute garbage in the front office.
Being able to swing the bat and being able to project player value / build a winning team have nothing to do with each other. AT ALL.
