Coach, you promised after Altuve hit the homerun to beat the Yankees that put the team in the World Series that you would never say another bad thing about him. Looks like you broke your promise. 🙁 Mom, you are right. I did say that and I did break my promise. But, I can just take so much of watching him be terrible and ignore it. That was a big home run....one which all the Yankees still claim he knew what pitch was coming due to wearing a buzzer. I have no idea if he wore one or not. What he is doing this year is making him look guilty......I am not saying he is.....but, his lack of production this season does make you wonder. He hustles and busts his butt to win...He just doesn't think at times.

He wouldn't have been able to do all he has since he came into the league if he didn't know what he was doing. The one thing I remember is when his first daughter was born, he struggled mightily when they were home. He has another newborn and again he's struggling. Just my 2 cents on the matter.

I think the sign-stealing stuff has hurt him. He didn't want to participate (if you believe his teammates), and I don't think he's been comfortable with the negative attention. He seems to not do well with outside drama.

The one thing I remember is when his first daughter was born, he struggled mightily when they were home. He has another newborn and again he's struggling. Just my 2 cents on the matter. you could be right and I hope you are. If I knew about his second child, I had forgotten about it. I think his struggles are mental and from trying to do to much. When he uses the whole field to hit, he is fantastic. He gets in trouble when he tries to pull everything and not having enough patience to swing at strikes. His current numbers make people wonder if he cheated like the rest. I don't know if he wore a buzzer. A big deal was made of him grabbing his shirt to keep it from being pulled off after his home run off Chapman. There was no proof if he was or wasn't wearing it. He said it was because his wife didn't want him shirtless on camera and there is no reason to think he lied. I do think he needs to be dropped down in the lineup because he is hurting the team right now hitting second. I hope he is back in the lineup soon, but, he should not be pushed so that he could end up unavailable in the post season.

I have no "conspiracy theory".....There is no proof regarding individual players when it comes to the sign-stealing scandal. Something has gotten into his head and is effecting his hitting. If you find it, let us know.

Imagine how bad it would’ve been if they didn’t win thei am World Series. I am anxious to see if Melvin figures out a way to keep Fiers from facing us in a 5 game series. I want him to have to pitch against us.

It really hurts not watching the games but they really broke my heart with that BLM move. I felt the same. Then, I thought about it and realized that us not watching the games didn't cost MLB, the Astros, or any players one dime. I enjoy watching the games so I watch. I don't like the fact that Baker is allowed to wear the BLM shirt on camera. BLM has done nothing to help anyone. The money they receive from donations......much of it.......is donated to the Biden campaign. They are linked on the Biden campaign's web page. Nobody gets upset over the black thug who gunned down a five-year old white boy playing in his driveway,but, go nuts when black thug, Jacob Blake, who raped a 15 year old girl is shot while resisting arrest and reaching for a knife that he had in his hand. All of this garbage is designed to help Biden win.

The asshole was resisting arrest so it's hard to sympathize with him.

He raped a 14 year old and served time for it. The woman that called the police on him was an ex-girlfriend who he terrorized a few times a year whenever he got drunk.
