I mean, he is tied for 5th on the team in Avg EV (87.4mph), 5th in hard hit % (37.1%), and 4th in hard hit percentage per swing (13.1%).

He's also 4th on the team in average distance.

I'm not saying I agree with it, but I understand it -- if that's the reasoning.

Those aren't terrible in a vacuum, but he doesn't walk, Ks too much, and isn't going to keep his .362 BABIP.

Julks has been ok in May, and in his last 7 games is 9/27. I'm ok with him playing for now. Unfortunately it's at the expense of either Dubon, Chas or Jake.

But what's really frustrating is we aren't finding out if anyone else can play first. Despite his first homer, Abreu is still hitting .191/.289/.262 in May.
.200/.310/. 286 over his last 10.

Julks has had his moments...

but at the end of the day his OPS is .690

that's not going to work for a corner outfielder

NVM - I was kind of playing board police and it's not my place.

what, my subtle complaining about Dusty? Yeah, it's not going away.

Maybe we will give him the Corbin Burnes treatment?

Luck of the draw- Twins roll with Gray and Ryan while the Astros pitch France and Bielak. We brought water balloons to a gun fight. Hopefully the offense performs again and the pen doesn't spit the bit.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

and along those lines...

couldn't believe that TK and Blummer were talking about the Astros going to a 6-man rotation (during the Sunday broadcast vs. the A's) -- almost advocating for it

need Framber, Javier, and H.B. every 5 games

He's heavy on the fastball...which is something a lot of our guys usually hit well. I think, anyway, I can't figure out how to show the team run values vs 4 seam on statcast

In his MLB career (admittedly, less than 2 full seasons at this point), Ryan has feasted on bottom feeders and gotten rocked by the likes of the Astros, Yankees, etc.

His fastball velo is below average but has a ton of movement.

Astros poll of which HOF Astro would help the team the most? I vote Berkman. Can bat from the left and play 1B or OF

Where would Berkman bat in this lineup? How would that change if Brantley comes back?

Got to be Bagwell. Top 4 first baseman post 1900. Nobody turns that down.
