5-5 would be minimum, got to avoid a backslide. Hopefully closer to 7-3.

So. Does Tucker play at all on this road trip? I'm betting not. 6-7 days before he's healthy enough to play and then at least 2 games in the minors. I'm betting he's out until they come home.

Mets down another reliever for the weekend series

Drew Smith to the IL

I think he was closing in Diaz' absence -- who has already started his suspension

Take 2 of 3 and we finish June with a winning record! Of course I'd prefer we get greedy but I'm trying not to tempt the baseball gods. Mets have been really hot lately.

Well according to the Astros' medical staff, he's only experiencing arm discomfort.

Curious what the record is with Abreau in the lineup vs Abreau not in the lineup.

Anyone tracking that?

There have been several posts stating the records, I can't remember what it is but we are vastly worse WITH Abreu than without

So for those of you with deeper knowledge of the farm system than I, what would it take to get Vlad Jr. here?

I am okay giving up Chas but I am not that familiar with what we have in the farm to give up. I know we have given up a lot already in recent years.

It won't be cheap- but I imagine it would include a couple players on the big league roster.

Loperfido has been discussed in trades as they see him expendable with the OF talent in the system. I've been told Toronto likes Chas, but considering James Click loved Jake Meyers and James Click is in Toronto now, that could be on the table as well.

Probably the wrong site to find the audience for this collection.

(I think the blue gear is sick personally.)

the Astros were 14-21 in games in which Abreu played

12-19 in games in which Abreu started

and looking back to the opening 4-game series vs. the Yankees...

he was 0 for 11 with zero RBI and zero runs scored....while batting 5th or 6th in the order

just a disaster from the start

Adding to this... if Toronto thinks Loperfido can play first, he could be their Vlad replacement.

Jake Meyers, Loperfido and a good young arm. Probably one more piece too. There's likely some prospects Click is high on that Dana doesn't see the same way.

Just spitballing.

Letting Joey go would seem to be a bad idea. I'd rather have him over Chas.

I will say the fans have much higher expectations of him than the organization does.

Do you think Click would value Melton enough to have him be the centerpiece? You've mentioned the org isn't high on him, maybe click would overvalue him to our benefit.

Who do you believe in more- Chas or Jake? The data indicates that Chas is the better player, but that assumes 2024 to date is an anomaly. The last month indicates that April and May were just evidence of a slow start, so maybe it has been.

Regardless, it will take substantially more capital to get an impact pitcher or first baseman. Not sure how Brown will be able to swing a significant trade.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

My favorite Astros hat is the bun b collab that just says STROS in rainbow on a blue hat.

Crazy to say but I think I rather keep Jake.

I think Chas' 2023 was the anomaly.

Melton's value is starting to decline a bit. He's old for AA and his numbers aren't really impressive.

That said, it's completely possibly someone like Click and Toronto think they can tweak something with him.

It's funny. The more I listen to people talk about the prospects the more I realize the variance in how they're viewed. The top prospect list that MLB.com puts out is entirely different than how Team A evaluates and sees their players. Which is very different from how Team B evaluates. And then you have the fans who have completely different views as well.
