Too early to give up on any of the young pitchers.....As for Biagini, he needs to be shipped out now with de Jong and Sneed, although Sneed was respectable tonightl

Biagini is bonafide DFA material.

What did Springer do to help again? Fold towels or something in the clubhouse? Provide the team snacks? Just admit it..little Jose is not the top dog on the team. he is about #3 behind Springer and Bregman. It won't be long before he drops to #4 behind Tucker unless he pulls his head out of his ass and starts trying to hit to all fields so he can help the team. George ws not in the lineup and killing ralllies... Altuve has done more to hurt this team this season than he has helped. Even his defense is in decline.Being stuck with his inflated contract at the cost of losing Springer would be a bsd move. Tell me again what Jose did to benefit this team in this series.........not a damn thing. I will certainly admit that this is the worst 30-game stretch of Jose's HoF-type career thus far. But I'm not prepared to say a 30-game stretch is enough to prove who is the best player on a team, and you shouldn't either. George is a very good player (although horribly erratic) when he's healthy, but he's only managed one season with more than 140 games played. One season. You realize that right? Averages games played from 2015-2019: Altuve: 146 Trout: 141 Springer: 133 And, yes, Altuve is definitely not our best player right now. But again, since Springer came up in 2014, Altuve has been the overall superior player by almost any metric you want to use. As far as this year goes, neither of them have been any good. So saying who is doing more to help the team win a series should be asked as who is doing less to hurt the team. It's pretty damn close.

So saying who is doing more to help the team win a series should be asked as who is doing less to hurt the team. It's pretty damn close. George and Jose are two different types of players. When he is right, George sparks the team with extra base hits and home runs, as well as being a great defensive player. He is the emotional leader and fires up the team. Jose is a great hitter when he shows some patience and hits to all fields. The problem is that he had a year when he hit over 20 home runs and decided he needed to pull everything. His batting average and production has declined because of it. Being injured a couple of times also played a part. The FACT remains that the Astros did better when Jose was on the IL than when George was on it. Our runs per game, SLG< etc. declined when George was out. We actually increased our lead in the standing when Jose was out and our numbers did not drop. Diaz was doing a great job replacing Jose when Jose was injured before he was injured himself. Jose is a great player and valuable to the team, BUT, he is not the spark of the team or the MVP. that belongs to Springer and/or Bregman. Our offense is hurting without Bregman and it is terrible without both George and Alex,. The emergence of Kyle Tucker has kept us from being a disaster offensively. Reddick has also done better than expected as has Maldonado. We had a great rally going last night in game two, until Jose had that terrible at bat to end the inning when we had scored four to make it 6-4. If he had been patient instead of going out of the zone to swing twice and then being called out on strlkes instead of drawing the walk he should have had, we would have had the tying runs on base with Brantley coming up. Instead, Jose had the terrible at bat and killed the rally. He has done that all too often. George has not been up to par either so offensively, neither is doing what he is capable of doing. I realize I anger some by pointing out that Jose does a lot of things wrong and is not the perfect player they think he is. He shows a lack of intelligence and patience and that hurts both him and the team.

And using how the team did in one season while different players were out doesn't mean anything. They played against different teams with different players being hot or cold at the time. But, if you want to use that metric, who carried the team offensively through the playoffs to the WS last year? George or Jose? In the end, at this point in all of their careers, Bregman is likely the most complete and best player on the team currently.

What player do you feel most disappointed in this year, and more than likely not to get better?
For me, it would be Josh James. And to a lesser extent, Ryan Pressley...

Most unproductive acquisition ever. He literally collects checks just to suck. And the other guy who rode in with him was also paid for nothing (after the no hitter).

Josh James is pretty high up there. Altuve and Springer as well. I think both of them will continue to improve, but it's still going to be mediocre years at best for both of them. Yordan is the highest to me. I don't know if it's his fault, but the fact that he has had knee problems for so long and had all offseason (and extended offseason) to do something and never did is pretty frustrating.

Pressly is still being affected by prior injuries. James was going bad before injuring his hip. I am more disappointed in Altuve, Springer, and Pressly at this point. I have also been impressed with Tucker, Paredes, Javier, Taylor, Scrubb, and Bielak before his last two starts.

We will make the playoffs but I don't expect anything else without Verlander and Bregman. This season was screwed from the beginning. I'm ready to get it over and build for next year. I wish we would be doing it with a different manager.

Jose WAS t the best on the team. Nowk Springere is the spark of the team but Bregman is probably the best player. Tucker has the chance to move into that category down the road.

Many have to do with his terrible decisions on the base paths. Nobody in baseball gets picked off first base more than Altuve. He is the only guy I have ever seen try to bunt with two outs in the bottom of the 9th when he represented the tying run. LOL LOL LOL I think the "pint-sized second baseman" label fits. There have been a lot of good pint-sied second basemen. He shows his lack of intelligence on a regular basis. How many times have we seen him swing at the first pitch when the hitter before him walked on four pitches and the pitcher had been struggling with control? He does DUMB things like that constantly. He will pull the ball into the shift when the entire right side is open and end up hitting into a DP. I think he often makes up his mind to swing at the first pitch no matter where it is and too many times gets himself out by doing so.He killed our rally last night by being dumb......swinging at two pitches way out of the zone, andk with a full count, got called out on strikes denying Brantley the chance to hit reoresenting the go ahead run. IF we had tied the game, we probably would not have seen Biagini and had a chance to win,. Jose is a great person and never drags his ass, BUT, his dumb decisions hurt the team on many occcasions. We don't have a player more dedicated to winning and more team-minded than Jose. He just lets his lack of patience and lack of intelligence get in the way. I don't want to get rid of him,but I damn sure don't want to lose Springer, either.

I also remember all the hits Jose, Springer Bregmank and others got in 2017. Marwin's homer off Jansen turned that series around.

Power hitting OF’s are more common than the speed/power combo you get from Altuve at second base. While what Altuve does is a more recent fad for his position, there is a laundry list of corner OF’s in baseball history who could hit balls over the fence with regularity, and that is a conservative estimation.

I don't dislike Altuve,but,I do think he is given a little too much credit at times and not enough blame when things go bad. We have a good nucleus of players who don't all contribute in the same way. My main problem with Altuve stems from him thinking he has to be a pull hitter and having no patience at the plate. Yes i know that is his style,but his style has cost the team all too often. His base running blunders are another problem, He never seems to learn from his mistakes and that is a sign of either being stubborn or just plain dumb. Springer can go into deep slumps and then come out of it and carry the team for two weeks. Altuve has done that at times. Some think Altuve is the key to this team.......I just don't happen to be one of them. Our offense has shown that it goes the way Springer goes and suffers when he is out of the lineup.

Every last one of these teams wno are refusing to play due to the Jacob Blake situation should be heavily fined by the commissioner's office. If one team wants to play and the other refuses. the idiots refusing to play should forfeit the game. This bullshit has gotten ridiculous and way out of hand. They must stop giving in to these thugs and anarchists or they will destroy the game.

There’s no secret why they kowtow so brazenly. You hit the nail on the head. The commissioners of these leagues don't have the guts to stand up and stop this garbage. You stop it by hitting these ingrates where it hurts......in their bank accounts. The NBA is now nothing but a collection of overpaid streetball thugs w ho think all of their demands should be met. That piece of shit who owns the Dallas Mavericks sucks up as bad as the spineless coach of the Spurs. They suck up to these thugs who claim they have been abused. These clowns are multi-millionaires because they play a game that is primariy financed by these white people they detest. Do they think it's these thugs in the street who pay their salaries? These assholes don't even have jobs or they wouldn't be spending all their time rioting and looting. The owners of professional teams and the commissioers of the leagues all support these idiots who "boycott". I guess they are stupid enough to think boycotting their games will get them what they want. Sad thing is that none of the teams boycotting will be fined or penalized in any way. players won't lose a nickel. My question is will these baseball teams who refused to play be forced to make up the games. If not, both teams should have a loss added to their records.

Our offense has shown that it goes the way Springer goes and suffers when he is out of the lineup. Lately, it's suffered when Springer was IN the lineup considering that he's currently hitting .193 (.710 OPS) at just past the halfway point of the season.

More games cancelled today including A's and Rangers due to player boycotting over Jacob Blake. There is proof that Blake was reaching for a knife when he was shot but the media LIES and says it was unprovoked. These assholes who refuse to play need to have their salaries withheld. This bullshit is getting old. The NBA is already dead and MLB is right behind them. Giving in to the demands of domestic terrorists and anarchists is not a good idea.

ANY cop who uses his firearm against a negro in this time period is a FOOL. Their only legitimate option right now is a tactical retreat when they see the shit hitting the fan. Let the brown people rampage...it's better than ending him/them and going to prison...or worse.
I am so glad I left that line of work two decades ago and am glad I did it during a time when you could still do what needed to be done to protect yourself and the public.
