Rich Dauer was the Astros' first-base coach during the 2017 World Series season. He suffered a medical emergency during the championship parade and was saved by quick-thinking Astros personnel, which @Ken_Rosenthal wrote in-depth about here - https://t.co/SoyWJ7r6so https://t.co/WVgWprKKCb

Baseball has brought incredible people into my life. Loved him when he coached me and learned from him when he was on my staff in Houston. This emotion when he came back to throw out the first pitch in 2018 was simply who he was. RIP, my friend. And thank you for being you. https://t.co/zSTerw4mNY pic.twitter.com/N7eGESKZcL

Breaking, per MLB: Umpire Pat Hoberg has been fired for sharing betting accounts with a friend who bet on baseball though there is no evidence Hoberg himself bet on games or manipulated any that he worked. He also deleted messages central to MLB’s investigation.

They awful ones hang around forever and the good one's get canned.
But yeah...Pretty stupid on his part.

Don't be an idiot.
I wonder who the bookie was? $10 says it was Shohei's.
Excuse me. Shohei's "interpreter".
Kind of fitting that this came out on the day that Faye Vincent passed away.

Remember that Angel Hernandez retired. MLB could lose their five best umpires before opening day and still be above water collectively.
Isn't Hoberg the ump that called a perfect game a couple years ago? I think he was one of the very best.

If he goes to Boston he'll be playing with Alex Cora being the manager. If I remember correctly wasn't Cora (along with Beltran) the engineer of the scandal?

He called a great game because he had something on the line.
Should have just said it was his translators fault

He called a perfect game during the 2022 WS, if I recall. Definitely one of the best ball- strike callers. Damn shame
Great post.
and even still have lay third base.EastCoastAgNc said:
If Bregman does sign with another team then Altuve will always be the greatest Astro in my book. Jose lobbied for The team to do everything they can to sign Bregman and even offered to move positions to allow him to play third base.
Let's move on! Let the corn dog go.
Altuve didn't offer to move positions to accommodate Bregman.
Apparently playing Altuve in LF was part of the plan with or without Bregman.

I mean it makes sense. He's so bad at 2B might as well see if he can upgrade to below average in LF.Ag_07 said:

Correct
This is a great sign. Cristian Javier, who is coming off Tommy John surgery last year, posted a video of him throwing at Daikin Park today.

If he stays on pace, we could see him rejoin to team in early August pic.twitter.com/66yYrDsqrV

Wonder if he's one of those umps who has history of bad ball/strike calls, though it can only take one bad call to turn a game
He was one of if not the best ump in the league actually

Yep. He called one of the best ever World Series for an ump in the Astros series against Philly.
Hoberg was the best balls and strikes guy in the whole bunch…

40% seems high, but I also know absolutely nothing.
I believe Alex Bregman wants to return to the Astros. But he would definitely like the idea of the Red Sox.

What's he waiting on? Money lining up.
Astros still have the best offer. https://t.co/dJkB1GdZeE
