Ok. I've been saying this for a month. This team needs to sweep the bad teams and split the good one.
The A's are a bad one. This needs to be a sweep. Rangers get CWS and Seattle gets the Angels. They are about playing at home. Anything less than a sweep and we risk losing ground.
Let's go.

Hensley started a World Series game and got a ring. Pretty special lifetime memory
Hensley was a killer last year?
Peace for Ukraine!
Is Caratini coming back yet or just taxi squad hanging out in Oakland? Maybe Salazar gets another start beforehand.
It's going to be weird at some point in the future when we don't have Kessinger to option anymore.All I do is Nguyen said:
And the AstrosTODAY’S ROSTER MOVES:
— Houston Astros (@astros) July 22, 2024
The Astros have selected IF Aledmys Díaz (#12) to the Major League roster and have optioned IF Grae Kessinger to Triple A Sugar Land. In a corresponding move, the Astros designated IF David Hensley for assignment.
You might not believe it, but it’s true: Whit Merrifield took a ball off a finger of his throwing hand while taking grounders an hour ago, is being evaluated now to make sure there’s no damage.

As Snitker said, managing to smile, “Can’t make it up….This year is something else.”
Hits keep coming for the braves
I think you're missing the bigger picture. Teams share different philosophy, they provide different scouting reports, they approach things different, not to mention the personal aspect between players and coaches. There is a reason why many players bomb when changing teams or why the excel.htxag09 said:texasaggie2015 said:
Maybe I'm in the minority then because I've benefited from a change of scenery multiple times in my life. I could be way off base and it's not a thing at all
I guess there's a difference in feeling better because of a change of scenery and actually performing better. To use your comparison, sure, you could have a toxic environment that's weighing on you and holding you back, move somewhere else, and perform better.
But, outside that, most people aren't going to change their output and work ethic, long term, just because of a change of scenery.
The Astros against Hogan Harris: Altuve 4, Bregman 5, Alvarez DH, Y. Diaz 2, Peña 6, Meyers 8, Dubón 7, A Díaz 3, McCormick 9

Arrighetti RHP
I get they want this to be the Diaz revenge series, but why are we putting Jose Abreu 2.0 in the starting lineup...
Getting right handed as possible. In a small sample, Hogan is more of a no splits guy.
answered my question from earlier. Between Diaz and Caratini, we can be a little more platoon-y pinch hitting around Singleton/Lopes/CabbageVictor Caratini has been activated off the injured list. César Salazar optioned to Triple-A.

Paxton sent down to make room for all the dodgers pitchers coming back.
Wonder if we put in a claim

They move off the fence and become sellers at the trade deadline.
Neris reunion?
Will Crane go to the next tax threshold for a Neris? I don't know how much of an upgrade that is considered to be.
Then where is Dubon? I would argue Dubon should replace one of Chas or A. Diaz.Farmer1906 said:

He's in LF
I wouldn't. He hasn't been particularly good this year. His WHIP is a big yikes.
Yup. There's the Stros PH bat.
Guardians down 4-0 early, chance to gain on the 2 seed tonight.

How about Jordan Montgomery for change of scenery?

He broken. Or was before the ASG.

He's also hurt. Also they aren't going to sell anyone. If Brent Strom can't fix you, your career is over

Luis Garcia threw a 31-pitch bullpen session today and was up to 91 mph, Joe Espada said. Justin Verlander is scheduled to throw another bullpen on Wednesday. Lance McCullers Jr. is still not throwing.

time to fire up ol' MLBTradeRumorsSources: The Astros are expected to have Cuban OF Pedro Leon as a trade piece by the Trade Deadline.
— Francys Romero (@francysromeroFR) July 23, 2024
Leon is not an option to be promoted and the franchise has no room for him.
He owns one of the best performances this season in Triple-A: .303 AVG, 19 HR, 74 HR, 22 SB. pic.twitter.com/1B4PyBC6vN

Do they really not see him as better than Chas or Cabbage? Kind of curious behind the "have no room for him" part
I think it's less about the guys on the major league roster right now and more about finding someone that other teams might want to acquire. If moving him saves Jake, then so long Pedro, been nice knowing ya.tjack16 said:linkdude said:time to fire up ol' MLBTradeRumorsSources: The Astros are expected to have Cuban OF Pedro Leon as a trade piece by the Trade Deadline.

When Tucker returns you have him, Jake, Yordan, Joey and Dubon still in the rotation. It is better for him to build up AAA stats to be a better trade piece as he would just collect dust on the bench in the bigs.
This place is a dump but it's cool in a nostalgic way
