75-43, 11 up on SEA in the division & 2.5 up on NYY for best record in the AL.
Cut the crap and win this game.

Astros could use Brown in the bullpen. Being cheap, don’t want to start that clock. Our relievers look fatigued.

If he’s not ready for the big league now, he never will be. I’m with you. If you didn’t trade him, play him. Anything else is a waste of time. If they say his walk rate would make him a better reliever, cool. We have enough starters anyway.

Bring him up, he fixes the bullpen. His 3-4 innings every fifth day means that someone else does not have to pitch those innings giving all those tired arms a little breather. Put one guy on the injured list per week and let everyone have a break.

My bet is that he gets added to the 40-man roster before the midnight August 31 deadline for being eligible for the postseason, but not called up until September 1.

Astros could use Brown in the bullpen. Maybe he was never promoted cause they like Abreu and they spent his options to Sugar Land. Does he have any?

Get it together, guys. No more sloppiness. It's one thing to get beat by a pitcher or get screwed by the umps, but don't give them extra runners/bases or run yourself out of innings...

Abreu has been pretty good this year though. Not sure he deserves to be sent down.

Dusty likes Abreu, the analysts like Maton and Click likes Stanek. They're waiting for roster expansion instead of having a row over it

I'm killing the computer running that play, especially with Priest Holmes

That said, Montero looks like he could use a break. I wouldn’t mind seeing Montero go to the 10-day IL and Brown called up now.

Maybe that was the previous manager

Nathan tends to be away on assignment when the Astros make the actual acquisition

Maldonado R Dubon is a career 1.000 hitter against RHP Kopech and he had three hits last night. Chas is a career .000 hitter against Kopech and has died against RHPs all season. So naturally...Chas is in CF tonight.
