@Redstormrising

my comments/opinion regarding Mr. Abreu and his poor performance.

@Redstormrising

nor, I reckon, does he need your defense of his character

Wait, I thought you were just commenting on his performance?

This post is just as full of shit as all of your others.

[MarkR (Buford T. Justice)]

Sweet, glad you’re cool with it.

Now please PM me your home address and where the key is so I can come take a big shit on your living room rug then tell you you shouldn’t care because a lot of other people want to shit on your rug too.

Don’t worry, I’m really interested in your opinion about it even if I disagree with what you think.

@MarkR

a lot of other people want to shit on your rug too.

Does the rug have a bidet? Should I bring wet wipes?

[Lefty]

I dunno, but that turd really ties the room together

[D.WARD (Scott)]

@Redstormrising

In the end, all of our opinions on this board are worth no more than a pile of dried goat s**t. Mine included. I find all of your opinions interesting even if I don’t agree with them.

U FOO!

[JimR (Coach)]

Blah, blah, blah

Fuck off

@Redstormrising

JA make an absolute crap ton of money and he has $19.5MM reasons not to care what I have to say about him, nor, I reckon, does he need your defense of his character. He most definitely has heard worse directly from fans (including Astros fans) at games. Because of this I feel pretty confident he can take the heat of disgruntled fans on message boards.

This is the worst type of “fan”

you make all this money so that I can treat you shit

You’ve been told to fuck off

Off you fuck

[Redstormrising (T-roy)]

I have zero fucks to give off (particularly about your and a MLB’s players hurt feelings) but keep it coming.

[Redstormrising (T-roy)]

Oh, I forgot to mention that JA is on the bench tonight. Hopefully he’ll continue to see more time there.

[Duman (Steve)]

@Redstormrising

I don’t even really care that much about average for him (or JA too) if he just hits bombs.

I guess it is true then that pricks love the long ball

[VirtualBob]

I think this guy may have replaced Snuffy. And quickly, too.

[MusicMan (Michael Shopoff)]

I’m still laughing at this one

[VirtualBob]

Astros add Nick Hernandez from SD for cash.

[BillyD]

Didn’t he have a pretty good run with the Astros in ST one year?

[VirtualBob]

A pretty good season in ‘21. I do not recall ST.

[BillyD]

Thanks. I could easily be getting mixed up with another player. Impressive numbers in the minors this year, especially considering the league.

Activated, Mushinski back to AAA

[Duman (Steve)]

Here are his spring training stats over the years. Just an inning or two each year.

Most recent from “my friend”

Apprently the Astros are actively looking for help - both hitting and pitching and identified some specific wants.

He says:

“Meanwhile Brown has been speaking often to the Mets, Marlins, White Sox and others about getting pitching …”

They have limitations in the talent they have to trade in the minors and what they are willing to trade.

They can say publicly that they are not concerned, but privately they are making a strong effort to improve their team,

They have targeted pitching specifically with starters and relievers being a focus - but they also are aware that they may have to make improvements to the offense to offset a starting pitcher issue. Which is probably why they were poking around JD Martinez’ availability.

I know that when the Astros signed Lauer they hoped to call him up fairly soon.

Luis Severino was mentioned - but heard more about Manaea. Sounded like the cost for Manaea is less as well. JD Martinez is the other guy on the Mets they have checked in on. No idea if they think he can play 1st or if they just would want to play him a lot at DH in certain line ups.

The White Sox don’t have much. They have Garrett Crochet but he is too expensive. They have targeted Kopech. He can be in the pen or possibly be a tandem type guy that gives you 2-3 innings, or once through the order. He would be useful but I think they would be better just leaving him in the pen. They also have looked at Gavin Sheets - he is a lefty that can play first and pinch hit.

On the Marlins they have spoken about AJ Puk, Jake Burger and some other reliever as well.

Right now there is a lot of teams that are doing well that are open to trading for upgrades - and there are only so many possible guys until other teams decide to sell. For example, I know that the Astros would love to get the A’s to move some of their guys.
