It's cool to see Altuve's name at the top in American League Batting Average right now. Not bad for a short guy.

Villar is terrible btw. Horrible base running error yesterday. He did have a nifty little backhand play though. Made it look easy.

Anyone familiar with the coca cola double play? The website says either bring in 2 coke products or mention the deal. I don't wanna show up without coke products though and need to pay full price

We should just call up Correa now to replace Villar, oh wait....

Check out the new Deadspin article.

10 months of our trade negotiations were leaked to the press

One interesting note

quote:
The Miami Marlins seem to have been willing to trade Giancarlo Stanton for prospects Carlos Correa and George Springer. Granting that Correa is an absolute stud, that Springer has hit fabulously well since his callup earlier this year, and that they're under team control for years while Stanton is starting to get expensive, you still wonder if the Astros will end up kicking themselves over that one. Stanton has the 11th-highest isolated power in major league history for anyone with at least 1,000 at-bats, and is a Gold Glove-caliber outfielder as well; he's a generational talent, the kind you can't really overpay for. (Another way to look at this, of course, is that the embarrassing Marlins franchise was yet again willing to trade away an irreplaceable player so as to pocket some of its dole money.)

When the Marlins offered that trade, Stanton's numbers were pretty meh. Now he's awesome, but I want to say he had an extremely low WAR at the time of the trade talks. You can't blame Luhnow for not taking this deal. Plus Correa and Springer are two of the top prospects in baseball. This team is not designed to be built around one player.

Walking over to the game in a bit. Anybody know the latest on Fowler? I can't find anything.

He's day to day with a back issue. Probably a game time decision

Fowler may miss a couple of more games after today. They contemplated the DL but decided against it, hoping he would only miss 7 games as opposed to 14-15.

Stanton would do work at Minute Maid... But I wouldn't have made that trade.

I'm hoping for **** Hernandez. He can play pretty much every position

Apparently Ki-ke is a bad word? Anybody?

It's pronounced differently. Hopefully he doesn't write it out like that.
