It doesn’t matter when he comes back…just have him be normal Hader when he does.
Imai is going to be nasty if the Astros can keep him healthy.
Has Imai had previous health issues?
Nothing arm-related that I can see. Had an ankle injury 4 years ago.
Don’t believe so. I was more referencing how the Astros have suffered a lot of significant starting pitching arm/elbow injuries in recent seasons.

I can’t tell: Framber gave up 4 runs or Detroit has 4 runs? Given that you’re posting it I’d guess Framber has given up 4 runs.
DET got 4 runs in the top of the 1st. They’ve added 3 more so far. Framber is cruising with 3 hits through 3.

Framber, with a bunch of run support, goes, 5 inning, 4 hits, 0 runs, 3Ks, 0 BB.
He pitched well but it was not exactly a murderer’s row of Yankees.
Good for him. I don’t really give a shit. I’m over Framber. Didn’t take long. BTY…good outing today from Javier. Encouraging.

Just to be clear, I feel the same. I just posted it cuz I was there and it seemed interesting. Good luck to him but he’s gone.

Framber, you’re nothing to me now. You’re not a brother, you’re not a friend. I don’t want to know you or what you do. I don’t want to see you at the hotels, I don’t want you near my house.

Full disclosure, I’ve watched maybe 9 innings combined of ST games so far and both were early on. That said, below is my shot at the opening day 26 man roster:
Position Players:
Correa
Pena
Altuve
Walker
Loperfido
Meyers
Cam Smith
Alvarez
Yanier
Paredes
Vasquez
Trammell
Allen
If Pena starts the season on the IL then probably Matthews takes his place. Hell, maybe Matthews makes the squad over Trammell even if Pena doesn’t start the year on the IL.
Pitchers:
Brown
Imai
Burrows
Javier
Wiess
Lance
Abreu
King
Okert
Sousa
De Los Santos (not sure if he’ll be ready for opener or not)
Blubaugh
Munoz - has pitched well after a terrible debut and either makes the club or is lost all together.
If De Los Santos starts season on IL then I think Roa replaces him.
Ok, go ahead and tear it to shreds.

That’s 9 innings more than me and way more names than I know.
I thank you for your service.

Roa is interesting. Any thoughts on Cosgrove?
I know I’ve read at least one comment around here about Cosgrove looking pretty good but I didn’t do a lot of research on him because if memory serves he’d be yet another lefty and the Astros seem to have plenty of them. But…I’m not sure the Astros care about that as much as other teams do so maybe an oversight by me to dismiss him the way I did.
