I hope Enoli isn't the one we let go away. I thought he was going to be IT after the covid season.

Same, but we have him plenty of time to develop and prove himself. He didn't.

He was the "if he could figure out how to control and harness his stuff, watch out" guy for sure. B Abreu was that way too but he was able to figure it out.
Can he play first base?EastCoastAgNc said:Paredes has been lights out in Triple-A this season.

1.31 ERA and 34 K in 20.2 IP.
He has 5 saves and a 0.97 WHIP

Agree, but sometimes, for whatever reason, a change of scenery actually does help. Whether it's organizational philosophy, how they handle certain players, or just a second set of eyes from an outside organization.
Certainly worked out for JD Martinez that way. I don't think he would have ever become who he is today if he stayed with the Astros.

Hakeem did this to MVP David Robinson
Dream Series
GM1: 27 PTS, 8 REB, 6 AST, 5 BLK
GM2: 41 PTS, 16 REB
GM3: 43 PTS, 11 REB
GM4: 20 PTS, 14 REB
GM5: 42 PTS, 9 REB, 8 AST, 5 BLK
GM6: 39 PTS, 17 REB pic.twitter.com/gUZjxWzBNg
Dream went thru Malone, Barkley, Robinson, & Shaq.
Suns (59-23)
Spurs (62-20)
Magic (57-25)
An absolutely historic postseason run
The Astros in 2017 were similar, going through
Red Sox (93 - 69)
Yankees (91-71)
Dodgers (104-58)
The dude had a pretty electric arm, especially how small he is. Same with the Perez dude that's with the Os I think.

I'm fully prepared for him to be sent down when Abreu comes back. And I'll be pissed. He's been so productive while up and Espada now has completely screwed him over

I think it's fair to criticize espada for not playing him, but let's be honest, if he gets sent down, it's Dana who is screwing him over
Chandler said on 790 the other day it's better for Loperfido in the long term to go back down for more ABs and work at 1st. Who knows if that's correct.
Makes sense to get ABs. He's just sitting on the bench here now aside from some late PH opportunities maybe
Sending down a guy who can play multiple positions and is hitting over 0.300 for a guy who can barely play one position and can't get his batting average above his jersey number is the absolute height of Insanity.

Appropriate that is painted waste management colors. Only a few more months before that toilet gets flushed
And MLB will inevitably adjust to him.
It's a bad situation all around, but honoring an agreement in good faith is important as well (if one was made).

José Abreu will not rejoin the Astros in Oakland but the plan is for him to meet the team in Seattle, Joe Espada said. He will play today, tomorrow and possibly Sunday at Sugar Land.

Nice to know ya Joey.

Jose Abreu grounded out to shortstop in his first at-bat tonight for Sugar Land #Astros

Crap, trainer out to see urquidy. They're looking at his fingers and he was grabbing/flexing his forearm/elbow. He lobbed one test pitch home and now is leaving the game.
José Urquidy was flexing his hand and fingers as he went into the dugout. https://t.co/w2AnOECkgQ

Flexing the fingers makes me think he popped something. I think fingers go numb when you tear the forearm or UCL. He's had TJ before, but it's been 5-6 years, which is about how long one lasts
If you have not been to the Leona General Store for dinner I highly recommend it.
Friday and Saturday they open at 5:30. You can have steak or chicken. Chicken is for who I have no clue as nobody in the place ordered it. It comes with mashed, a roll and a salad.
Steak is a ribeye, 10oz min, as big as you want.
I wanted 16oz. I ate every bite and followed it with blackberry cobbler.
I'm dying. I'm happy but I'm dying.

He pulled it. Thats more than what he did here.
Urquidy is in the Lance class of expectations.
You can't count on him and whatever he gives you is an added bonus.
He's had so many little arm injuries and with that delivery it's not gonna get any better.

I've had dinner there many times. We have land in Normangee not far from there
