we need a left handed pitcher on the bullpen. Mushinsky has performed better in a limited time.tjack16 said:Ags #1 said:
So who gets sent down? Seth?
Should be Martinez …. But I'd imagine Mushinski will.
yes, he was the one

.548 OPS and 8 passed balls
gets the idea going
as it should
But you say it like the organization is seriously considering it. They aren't. So the comment just gets old.
See a lot of people today posting “Happy Anniversary of Joe Kelly throwing at Carlos Correa 😂”

In honor of Joe Kelly heading back to LA here’s the video of their next AB against each other where Correa hit an absolute tank to LF
People seem to forget

I don't know where this idea about DFAing Maldy has come from, but it's quite annoying. It's never going to happen
Can you blame Astros fans for thinking this? We've been conditioned to expect good, efficient and sometimes ruthless roster moves for the last 8 years. This move would have been made already every year except this year where we're suddenly hell bent on catering to veteran nepotism
also there were rumors/discussions etc saying Morton was planning to retire soon I don't know if I want to sign a guy who has that mindset…it obviously changed but I remember hearing it talked abouttjack16 said:W said:one reason why the Astros' golden era is lasting so long...EastCoastAgNc said:George Springer

99 games, 435 PAs, .257/.326/.397, 13 homers, 41 RBIs, 102 OPS+, .723 OPS
Chas McCormick
63 games, 239 PAs, .278/.367/.523, 13 homers, 42 RBIs, 143 OPS+, .890 OPS
the franchise has been really good at getting the best years of a player...and then moving on from that player
The only real "miss" we had was not extending Charlie Morton.
Springer, Correa, Keuchel, Osuna, Cole (too expensive to justify) we all hit on not keeping

I mean, except when he sucked last year

Getting graveman is important not just for this year but next year..Kendall Graveman has a year of club control remaining. The Astros could lose Hector Neris, Ryne Stanek and Phil Maton to free agency this winter. https://t.co/sJqTnGd7cC
— Chandler Rome (@Chandler_Rome) July 28, 2023
The Astros could lose Maton to his locker again

So we're adding sore arms to lighten the burden on the existing sore arms

Click did every thing in his power to limit Moldy's playtime last year. Probably cost him his job in doing so. 0% chance he would have resigned him if he were GM
Whatever happened to Toro?
Still beautiful
Cody Bellinger is still in play for the Astros, per sources.

Dude, like 4 years ago they didn't resign him and then traded for him half a year later the following season, a lot based on his handling of the staff.
I'm sorry, I'm just tired of the Maldy DFA tall because it's not going to happen. Not 2 months before the postseason.
Unless Dana puts his foot down and issues some sort of ultimatum, he's catching the majority of the second half of the season too. I just think the complaining about Maldy is pointless.

Guys… Maldy was never getting DFA'd. Not a chance.
This is a good trade. Lee was blocked and there's familiarity with Graveman. Helps both teams.

Hopefully Graveman fixes whatever his issues are in July and returns to what he was in May and June.texasaggie2015 said:

It helps he's going to a team that is familiar with him.
I'm still expecting 2-3 more moves.

SP & LHH?
A bat, a starter (lorenzen or flaherty). Another reliever?

He's with the brewers, has played in 5 major league games this year
I like bringing Graveman back
The Astros' final four first-round picks of the Jeff Luhnow era after the Alex Bregman/Kyle Tucker double dip in 2015:
— Greg Rajan (@GregRajan) July 28, 2023
2016: Forrest Whitley
2017: J.B. Bukauskus
2018: Seth Beer
2019: Korey Lee
Bukauskus and Beer did help land Zack Greinke, which certainly can be justified.
that's a rough stretch of 1st round picks.
Hit rate drops after the first 15 picks or so but regardless you can't keep that streak going forever.

He's a good player, but I worry about locker room and dugout issues.
Would you classify 3 as "busts" and the other (Whitley) as incredibly bad luck (which is probably still gonna be a bust)?
Man it would be strange seeing Bellinger in an Astros uniform. But a good kinda strange.
Forrest Whitley is like that $2 bill you have in the drawer that you keep instead of spending because it could be worth something more……….someday

That's an 0-4. Easily.
