No. Not Montero. Not this BS again.

Why not bring up Whitley? Montero will just be Montero all over again if he's called up again - seen that movie and don't want to see it again.

That would have tested the slept-wrong elbow.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

Both pitchers took mid to high 30's to get through 2 innings

This game could be a pen game by the 5th

Good lord. That was a Chuck Knobloch level throw to 1B.

Averaging an error per inning. Sweet.

Blanco the Magician so far. Glad he's getting out of these jams.

At this point watching what we've trotted out at 1B I'm ready to back up the brinks truck to Alonso.

1B is an absolute disaster of a shlt show right now.

He's a pretty poor defensive, first baseman.

I've been assured it's easy to play. Get a big glove and get out there.

I don't understand this concept. It's incredibly difficult. Footwork. Catching all kinds of errant throws. Timing. You are involved in just about every infield play. Why we keep putting guys there who have never played there is beyond me. Singleton at DH and Caratini at 1B is just plain dumb.

How about these WAR rankings by position for the Astros in 2024:

SP- 12th
RP- 10th
C- 7th
1B- 29th
2B- 5th
SS- 13th
3B- 7th
LF- 18th
CF- 16th
RF- 3rd (Tuck effect)
DH- 4th
PH- 23rd

No first baseman, Tucker's absence, and zero bench will do this team in, but pretty good otherwise.

He heard you.

Wheeler is making him look pretty bad so far.

Had our chances and nothing.

Wheeler at 61 through three. Need to keep that pace up if nothing else.

Gave it a good ride. 61 pitches through 3 for Wheeler. Would really like some runs, but at least they are making him work.

I swear this is one of the worst offenses I've ever seen. We could give up a perfect game playing tee ball

Sorry to quote myself, but I continue to wonder what Dana was thinking at the trade deadline and in reviewing the waiver wire in terms of a 1B platoon bat.

That check swing has to be appealable down the line. That was a clear miss.
