Kyle Tucker won’t return tomorrow, Joe Espada said. Tucker still isn’t doing on-field baseball activities, but Espada said he’s moving around better.

The Astros have discussed possibly using Victor Caratini or Yainer Diaz at first base, but Joe Espada said today he would still prefer them to stay at catcher. But it's not off the table.

...and Bregman back to the 6-hole.
I haven't been listening to his weekly spots on there lately, but it was refreshing to hear something different.MaxPower said:I didn't hear the audio but those bullets are the most GM sounding Brown has sounded since becoming GM. Maybe he's finally winning some influence? Fingers crossed.cc10106 said:
Brown/presser on 790 saying he led the process of Abreu's DFA
- Jon will get most of the ABs
- Dubon will play more at 1B
- Loperfido probably back up by 21st, may get some 1B opportunities
- not looking to trade more prospects for rentals
- doesn't like signing guys until age 38 and older (asked about Tucker i think)

Since May 26th Bregman has a 1.057 OPS. During that 16 game stretch he's hit 5 HR, scored 12, and driven in 11.
wow, Lance Lynn levels of FB usage, but about 10x as effectiveGarrett Crochet just did something I haven’t seen in years.

Bregman's wRC+ has now passed Machado & Arenado. He's 10th in baseball for 3B WAR. Don't be shocked if at the end of the season we look back and see a 4 WAR with 100 RBI.

Which one of you run Facebook for the Astros?
Hes just old and not on steroids. He may be 40 for all we know. This is what happens to old dudes that dont juice and why you dont sign guys to deals like his.All I do is Nguyen said:
I do want to say that I hope that Abreu gets whatever help he needs for whatever is ailing him. Whether it's mental, or mechanics I hope he does well. Just not against us
