Roster Moves 2025

Major league minimum I would imagine. That’s usually how it goes when a guy gets cut

The Astros would owe a pro-rated Major League minimum. The Angels pick up the rest of his salary.

Right. The move has been announced, Neris is active for today’s game, Jason Alexander sent down to AAA as the corresponding move.

Dude holds the best offense in baseball to zero runs in three innings and gets a long bus ride for his troubles.

Damn…I hate to hear this as it likely means Jake is going to miss some time. Hopefully he doesn’t miss a substantial amount of time.

Doesn’t look like Corona has taken much of a step forward at the plate this season but remember reading over and over the last few years that he is a legit centerfielder.

The last time the Astros called up a little guy from Maracaibo it went fairly well.

Saw this elsewhere, @MarkR can put it in his fact file:

Altuve has 242 HRs

Since MLB integrated, every other player listed at 5’6" or less has a combined 241

Hack Wilson is listed at 5’6" and hit 244 HRs.

Hack Wilson died in 1948. He last played in 1934, well before integration in 1947. That is why the qualifier was added.

Also, Altuve has now passed Hack Wilson to be the All Time Short King HR leader.
