Royals on pace for 96 wins this year so far.
Astros GM Dana Brown said Ronel Blanco won’t appeal his suspension and it will begin immediately. He will essentially miss one start because of the six-man rotation. The Astros will play with 25 players in the meantime.

Is it oops, though?Farmer1906 said:
Singleton gets a day off at first vs RHP. Oops.
If he appeals and doesn't win, he ends up delaying the suspension which could mean missing multiple starts. Its better to miss 1 than potentially 2f1ghtintexasaggie said:

Dubon 2022-2024: 71 wRC+ vs RHP, 125 wRC+ vs LHP
Singleton has mostly stunk in the bigs except for recently.
AAA 2022-2023: .444 wOBA, .430 xwOBA vs RHP, .350 wOBA, .301 xwOBA vs LHP.
Also, Dubon scares me with these low expected #s. I haven't dug into why just yet.redline248 said:Yeah.Farmer1906 said:Yes, I trust the larger sample size and the general rule of thumb.redline248 said:Is it oops, though?Farmer1906 said:

I wonder if it was scheduled day off or maybe just riding a trend? Oh well, we still ought to be able to pound this guy.

I am still so confused about this sudden joke about Bregman and his wife - where did this come from? I have been at the games this week, so did I miss something on the broadcast?

So are the umpires determining there is “excessive” rosin+sweat or are they determining it is a substance OTHER THAN rosin+sweat? Being asked to wash ones hands would lead us towards the “amount” of substance being the issue as opposed to the degree of stickiness of the… pic.twitter.com/FThEtfkqkN

McCormick went 0-for-4 with a strikeout at DH today for Double-A Corpus Christi. He'll take tomorrow off and play again for the Hooks on Friday.

Shawn Dubin is the Astros' only reliever guaranteed to be available tonight. Seth Martinez threw 52 pitches on Sunday and could maybe give an inning. Tayler Scott and Josh Hader both went two innings last night. Montero, Pressly and Abreu have both gone two days in a row

That kind of pressure should do wonders for his psyche going into the game. Anybody have Maldy on speed dial?Beau Holder said:EastCoastAgNc said:Shawn Dubin is the Astros' only reliever guaranteed to be available tonight.

Assuming this means Framber gets 100 pitches tonight no matter how well or poorly he does.

Maybe they're gonna get one of em to blow it out tonight and then send him down.Marvin said:
Was there not a reliever in Sugar Land that could sub for Martinez or Dubin?
