The Astros’ best backup infielder is playing every day because the team’s starting third baseman is injured. They also traded their second-best option to upgrade the bullpen with Kendall Graveman.

He wasn’t supposed to be. Diaz is supposed to be. Bregman’s hurt, Diaz has to start. Yuli needs a day, so Garcia has to play. Not everybody is a star

That’s quite a stepdown from #1 (Diaz) to #2 (Garcia). I simply find it hard to believe that there’s nobody in the system who isn’t batter than this guy…
As I said above, they traded their second option to acquire Kendall Graveman from the Mariners.

There was, we had to trade him to improve the bullpen
Tell ya what, do some research and see who would be better. Remember, whoever you want to pick has to 1, be a major league minimum guy, 2 have options remaining, 3, you have to be able to give up nothing for him because he’s supposed to play once every 2-3 weeks. Good luck
All I want from a backups backup, don’t kill me on defense
Thankfully, Bregman is back in the Skeeters lineup tonight and is 1 for 2 with a run scored. So far.
Hopefully, we will soon see an end to Robel Mendoza’s time in the bigs. He’s far from ready for it.

Lance wants to win this one I guess.
A leadoff double in the 8th would be OK with me.
Just hope to God LMJ is OK.
Just a rookie mistake. Sometimes, you just have to eat that ball.
One more, Lance.
Going to the 9th in Oakland. Padres leading 8-1.
So close
I swear Taylor better get this out.
