I doubt Correa wants to miss time. He knows it will hurt his future payday. He's just weak and can't help it. All frustrations aside, the guy makes us better. I hope he can play in the postseason. And to top it off, he's the worst of the 4 at HEB commercial acting. |

I have thought for quite sometime that he wants to play for the Yankees. In any case, I would trade him before he can become a free agent. He is under club control and arbitration eligble the next two years. We have plenty of time to deal him before he can walk. I'll go out on a wild limb, and say we trade him this winter. Know that sounds whacked, but deep down, I think mgt knows what Mr. and future Mrs. Correa want..... And thats a LA or NY limelight. OK! Trout for Correa straight up. Sounds fair to me. |

Alright, just got to the game. I see Correa outside in his limo getting a weird massage. It’s not any type of massage I’ve ever seen before.

I just wish they would tell Kalas and Blum that the crap with Julia having a jacket or being hot or cold on the road got old a long time ago. Julia is much better at her job than the airhead who is trying to replace her. I am also tired of suffering through listening to Etchenfelder butcher the play by play during the frequent vacations Kalas takes. I have never known a play by play man to get as much time off as Kalas gets. If he doesn't want to work, get rid of him and hire someone else. I’m pretty sure Todd and Thomas could be better in the booth than Eschenfelder and anyone else. I have never heard anyone as bad as Eschenfelder. |

He makes us a lot better when he is on his game and that comes in spells. He hit two home runs in one game in Oakland and then acted lost the rest of the series. Very inconsistent and takes too many strikes. |

Where I come from what they are doing was called "shacking up". I don't know the whole story behind all of his "issues" but you don't either. You constantly defending then can also be annoying. |

There’s a reason he was 3-14. ..., but his BABIPA projects that he is due for some positive regression. |

Since the ball is leaving the field of play, are these home runs considered “in play” for purposes of BABIP? I am very much concerned about this.

Yordan is beyond his years at the plate, such great discipline for a rookie.
