Dammit…I didn’t remember that. Hope he comes around.
Sounds like Siri’s our CF
I wrestled with qualifiers to that post, but ultimately decided that the handle conveyed the warning as well as anything I could come up with.
Have you traded Chas or think he will be?
No just intended to reiterate my belief that if Nightengale says we’re going after Marte it’s very unlikely to come to fruition.
Too subtle for me
I knew exactly what you were doing but I’m on Twitter and follow Nightingale for the very reason of reading his replies when I need a good chuckle
article on the bullpen in The Athletic, which they still are emailing me. Not one word about re-signing Graveman.
WTF.
That’s bullpen question/priority #1.
For me, it surely is. I hope it is for Click as well.
Uncle Mike has always been Uncle Mike.
Good grief he looks the same. The facial expression and everything.
Well, shit. The Phillies just got Emanuel on a waiver claim.
Can’t keep everyone
Bummer. Nice move by philly, good luck to him on his comeback
Not surprised. Good arm, but the Astros couldn’t protect everyone.
My guess is that the Astros decided to gamble with putting Emanuel on waivers, given his injury history (TJ surgery in 2015, torn UCL in 2020 that he rehabbed, and then season-ending UCL surgery in 2021).
But I’m pleased they protected the guys that they did. And I guess it’s somewhat encouraging that, despite having one of the supposedly “worst” farm systems in baseball, it’s still solid enough that the Astros can be graduating players into the majors at a good clip and still be losing players due to roster crunch.
And I’m still expecting to see at least two more Astros minor leaguers get picked off in the Rule 5 draft, if/when that happens.
Stubbs on the move too?
Apparently traded to the Phillies for an OFer (Logan Cerny).
