My one slight edit is: Raley DFA, all teams pass, he goes to Sugarland or Corpus and continues to work with the Astros brain trust on a reset for the balance of the year and in the off-season. Storm sees something in him so that catches my attention, despite his abysmal performance this year.
Pressly on paternity.
Abreu recalled.
According to Cot’s contracts the Astros are just over 3 mil away from the luxury ta threshhold.
Do performance bonuses count 100% towards that?
A few players, specifically Yuli and Graveman come to mind, have some bonuses that probably will be added to the payroll.
For example: Yuli gets a total of $1.9 mil if he gets 550Pa. He needs to avg just over 2 PA per game the rest of the season, and has already earned $800K of it.
Yep, I assumed he would eventually accept an assignment in the Astros org.
ETA: assuming he did not get claimed. I thought that was a given in my statement. Guess not.
I doubt he makes it through waivers. Most pitchers don’t unless they are hurt
I would agree that he would likely get snatched up
That may not he a big thing, though.
Not quite.

Once you do it, it’s easy.
I just did a quick ranking of the 15 guys who are still in the organization and have pitched this year, or just been acquired.
I simply ranked them 1-15 and totalled the 6 catagories on this year’s numbers for: BA against, OPS against, BB%, K%, HR%, and IR scored.
Ranks 1-15
Pressly
Graveman
Javier
Stanek
Y.Garcia
Maton
Abreu
Taylor
Top 8 are a 13 man staff
Paredes
Bielak
Raley
Montero
Solomon
Scrubb
Garza
That should show just how awful Raley and Scrubb have been after solid seasons last year.
Nobody with Raley’s spin (much less a lefty) would get through waivers. ~20 teams would want a shot at fixing him. He’s the exact kind of guy the Astros would claim if they had the chance. But he isn’t getting out right now, and right now is when the Astros need outs. So if you DFA him and he gets claimed and turns into the next Josh Hader or whatever, so be it.
Yes.
Ralph Garza DFA’d to make room for Josh James coming off the 60-day DL.
Ralph got his win, and I am glad.

Yes, one of the feel good aspects of the season.

His last big league strikeout was against Aaron Judge and then Altuve hit the grand slam.
