That's awesome. But to be honest he owns us. He's up there with some of the great Astro killers.

Run prevention isn't solely on the pitcher.Agnzona said:
Inherited runners also don't count as ERA. However for any reliever runs allowed is the only stat that really matters. One could have a sub .100 era and blow 50 saves.
This is the correct answer. People in here have such a anger boner against Giles that I think it's affecting their logic.
You're ignoring the times when when bring him in for the sole purpose of getting out of a jam. And he gives up a double off the wall.
His is why I've always thought that inherited runners should count half to each pitcher.
Guy loads the bases and gets pulled? Reliever gives up a grand slam?
Each guy walks away with two ER.
Last weekend without baseball!
speaking of Cano...he turned 35 in the offseason. Posted a sub .800 OPS last year. Only hit .208 vs. lefties.
the Mariners have not made the playoffs since he joined the team. Cano is on the payroll through 2023 until age 40.
looks like another ill-advised long term contract to an aging player

of course the Mariners in general have not been to the playoffs since the 116-win season in 2001.
didn't realize it had been that long for Seattle

McCann hits a dinger to get his Spring average up to .079
Phillies just signed a prospect Scott Kingery to a 6 year 24M deal before he has taken a pro AB
With 3 club option years at the end of that
Can't wait to see Jon Heyman and Bud Norris blast the Phillies

FIFY. The last time I checked, albeit often a very meager amount, Minor League players get paid.astros4545 said:

I am ready for this thread to be over.

I wouldn't like trading either Peacock or McHugh. With the way out starts were in and out of the lineup last year, I like the dual insurance policy.
McHugh is expendable, but if we end up needing a guy to eat innings and give the team a shot a la Mike Fiers last year, McHugh is that guy.
Colin McHugh for Tony Watson?

We could have signed Tony Watson, so I'm guessing the front office wasn't interested.
Had the mother of all nightmares last night. Dreamt that I flipped channels and landed on a White Sox game and JV was pitching for them. Somehow we traded him and there was no news about it. I rushed to TA and checked the board and no one cared.

At the moment I don't see us needing to make any moves (at least trades)
Line up looks pretty solid unless an A1 lefty reliever is out there I guess.

I'm sure many in this thread will want to trade for a "shutdown closer."
I'd do one of those guys for a good lefty reliever or possibly a skilled young catcher close to the majors.
McHugh for Posey straight up.

Anyone notice that almost every big name team is starting on the road for opening day this year?
Boston, cards, giants, yankees, Astros, Indians etc...
Do they try and rotate these every year as much as possible so every team can have a home opening day every other season?
