The best part of that play is Matt Downs diving like he's taking a bullet for the president.

I had the exact same thought

This article is reporting that the Stros will go back to the blue and orange color scheme next season. It doesn't say what the actual uniform will look like, but it is fairly informative and a pretty interesting read

My God. Web gems galore. Panda plays hacky sack in the first inning and keeps the ball up so another player can make a diving catch. Two diving catches in center by Pagan. And an over the shoulder back of the end zone catch at short to rob Paredes of a hit. When did these guys suddenly become gold glovers?

Who do y'all think gets called up in September? Will we see Cosart? I'm anxious to get some new blood in here.

And on a bright note, I enjoyed watching Paredes play tonight. He should have been up here months ago

Cosart shouldn't be anywhere near a big league park until at least 2014.

2014!?! Is that you Drayton?
Houston Summit
How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
Nah, Drayton would have traded him for Clint Barmes or Pedro Feliz months ago

But still, 2014 is a little crazy. He has a 3.40 ERA at AAA. How much more does he need to prove?

Sweet. I really hope they adopt the old H-Star logo for the hats. The article you posted hints that they will be using it, but with a different font for the H.

Per Zachary Levine, Luhnow just announced that we are calling up 3B Matt Dominguez from AAA. I don't think a corresponing move has been made yet

wish Ruggiano the best, but he's 30 years old and just a AAAA player at best. Bogusevic is 28, provides plus defense, and will not pass through waivers if you try to put him AAA. Probably the same with Justin Maxwell. He's a plus defender also.




Ruggiano is looking like a MLB level player for Miami.......

I got free tickets to the game tonight...what players should I pay attention to that actually have a chance to impact the Major League roster next year (outside of Altuve)
Houston Summit
How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
Brett Wallace should have an impact next season either at 1B, 3B or DH. Tyler Greene has also shown some potential ever since we acquired him from St. Louis.

Some young guys who might be worth watching are Jimmy Paredes at RF and Matt Dominguez at 3B. They haven't been in the Majors very long, but they've had pretty good AAA numbers.

Looking towards next year and specifically at SS, do we try and trade Lowrie or Greene in the off-season? Or do we wait until the season so Lowrie can show that he has recovered from his injury? Who do you want moving forward or is neither guy a future building block? What about Marwin? I personally think we should move one of them and see how Marwin develops as our primary middle infield reserve.
Houston Summit

I think they'll use Greene as the utility player who can play 2B or SS behind Altuve and Lowrie. I think since Luhnow drafted him and now has traded for him, he believes that he has a high ceiling and wants him around. I'm not sure what Marwin's future is, but I don't think Greene or Lowrie will be traded over the offseason. Just my opinion though

Astros ship Francisco to Rays fot PTBNL.
Houston Summit

I like it. Keep flipping the guys who don't figure in to our future plans and get prospects. Luhnow has shown that the PTBNL is usually a pretty good player
Houston Summit

And Matt Dominguez has looked really good so far since his call up, and he's had some good numbers in AAA. If he can play like this consistently, we may have robbed Miami

hard to believe, but the 'stros (40-92) are now 40 games behind the Reds in the standings. And when you look at Cincy, they are not exactly a team full of Hall of Famers or All-Stars. There's Votto, Cueto, Chapman, and several other nice players
