Over his last 8 outings, Whitley has posted the following line:

Bullpen help?
They need to bring him up. Maybe not against the dodgers, but Seth, Scott, and Abreu need some rest.

When I talk to somebody who also lives in Texas, I live in Katy. When it's somebody outside of Texas I live in Houston. But one of my friends is from Brenham and claims he's from Houston
I knew Seattle had a pitchers friendly park but I didn't realize just how much it hurts them as hitters. They have massive reverse splits. This is just July.

Looks neat. It's right near DBat & Scrapyard so probably a smart location. I wish they had facilities like this when I was growing up. I take my daughter them all the time for lessons, camps, practice, etc.
These places are blowing up. They put one up in Humble last year. Haven't be though. What makes it different/special?

No idea. Maybe they're more serious / high level. The Dbat nearby isn't exactly a great place to get instruction. We use Five 10 Five.

DBat instruction is highly dependent upon the individual location and instructors. At the Upper East Side location there's 3-4 really outstanding instructors but the rest are JAG.
The Mariners are remaining active in trade talks today, even after the Randy Arozarena deal.

They would like to add a leverage reliever and at least one more bat.
Stay tuned.@MLBNetwork
Seems like we usually make deals around the last day or very end of the trade deadline so I don't expect to hear much until after the weekend. Maybe I'll be surprised this time.
It was the opposite when I was a kid. Everything was Spring or Conroe and The Woodlands wasn't a thing outside the people who lived there.Farmer1906 said:

More on Seattle. They have the most extreme park factor this year. And Texas is right there with them.
It's not just this year. The three year average has them at the bottom. Texas on the other hand is just bad this year. Their 3 year average is basically neutral.

For what it’s worth, I have been told the Astros aren’t interested in trading for Jack Flaherty.

They definitely want a starting pitcher and I believe they will land one, probably a #3 or #4 type with team control.
Yo Dana, Jimmy, division rival just got better what are we doing?
Dodgers and Red Sox are nearing a deal to send James Paxton to Boston, source says. @ByRobertMurray was on it.

Sitting around being lazy ignoring all calls and setting their out of office messages probably.
Seriously though...WTF do you think they're doing?
These kind of comments show up every year around this time. It does nothing but show your ignorance.
The Phillies have acquired OF Austin Hays from the Orioles for RHP Seranthony Domínguez and OF Cristian Pache.
— Mark Feinsand (@Feinsand) July 26, 2024
We have a double contender trade
They need a CF. Not sure what another corner OF does for them. I guess he's an upgrade over Castellanos but will they bench a guy making that kind of dough?
Looks like a Marsh platoon. They still need a CFer.

That's a lot to give up for a meh platoon bat. Especially one who wants to add to their pen. Been pretty good since a bad April start.
He was on the squad in 22 when we played them in the world series.redline248 said:Homeboy's name is really Sir Anthony?EastCoastAgNc said:The Phillies have acquired OF Austin Hays from the Orioles for RHP Seranthony Domínguez and OF Cristian Pache.

No Bregman trades (duh)
Dana Brown said on @WillKunkelFOX’s show that the Astros have NO interest in trading Alex Bregman.
— Michael Schwab (@michaelschwab13) July 26, 2024
Also, they aren’t talking about any extension talk during the season but Brown said they will make an offer after the season. https://t.co/igbr4uXwwW
Anyone have any recent AppleTV promo codes or anything?
You can get a 2 month trial through the links on the astros twitter posts about the game tonight, but you only get 1 trial a year.jetch17 said:

New at ESPN+: My latest on the deadline, including why Garrett Crochet is far less likely to be traded than previously thought, other big names with little traction on a deal, the best players expected to move and debating the merits of a wild trade idea. https://t.co/IDmfcwNKCc

Behind a paywall, anything interesting here?
The Rays are expected to listen on Yandy Diaz. Per sources, the Astros, Mariners and Pirates are potential landing spots.
— Mark Feinsand (@Feinsand) July 26, 2024
Would rather have parades, he's coming off the IL
Not IL, but leave, I believe.EastCoastAgNc said:The Rays are expected to listen on Yandy Diaz. Per sources, the Astros, Mariners and Pirates are potential landing spots.

Yandy is older and under control for less. I would gladly have him, but much prefer Pardes. Isaac helps the now, but also would cover a big offseason move (replacing Bregman). That way we don't rush the development of Dezenzo, but also have flexibility if he is ready since Paredes can play 1B.
Yandy's split vs LHP:
.341/.374/.506, OPS+ 145 relative to the leauge vs LHP, 151 wRC+
Only thing that will be a negative is when he's in the same lineup with Yainer and Aledmys

That double Y Diaz has gotten me before looking at fantasy or stat lists.
Similar but different take here.
.879 OPS vs lefties. I love it.
— Michael Schwab (@michaelschwab13) July 26, 2024
He can be serviceable at 3B if Bregman leaves next year. Then the Astros can develop Brice Matthews at 3B. I see Dezenzo as a 1B https://t.co/ikFWp5v80a pic.twitter.com/VV8UoNKVSn
