The way Obie pitched yesterday I can see Wojo making it and Obie getting sent to AAA. Obie has 1 more start, he better make it count.

He looks extremely lost at the plate, I don't know that he will be fine. I don't think think he will bust on the Wallace level but I think he's going to really struggle to hit for a passable average at ML level. I also would still be surprised if they send him down

You know, this was the Astros, what?....3 years ago?

Was that from the Grantland preview? Because I skimmed that and saw Jerome Williams slotted in the four spot in their rotation and was all like

Luke Gregerson named Astros closer


Per McTaggert

I have no problem with this and Qualls as setup.

I drafted him in all of my fantasy leagues hoping he would be named closer I believe he'll be good enough to keep it too. Hopefully the days of closer musical chairs are behind us and we have a good one locked up for a few seasons.

yeah I didn't really want Qualls in that closer role.

Qualls should be serviceable as a 7th inning guy with Fields. I'm just excited to not experience so many demoralizing losses like in years past with such shitty pens

Sports Illustrated with another article looking to bash the Astros reputation.

Title: "Rejected by Astros, Nix...."


Yeah that's not a misleading title at all......

I read it already and it pissed me off greatly. The kid comes as extremely entitled if you're familiar with the slotting system and the details of how it actually unfolded like all of us are. They offered him like 220k over slot and he treats it like a slap in the face given the situation and how the system works. Give me a break.

I like Gregerson as closer.

We are in great shape with the back end of our bullpen

@brianmctaggart: #Astros moves: Fields, Obie and Peacock to start year on DL. Chapman, Hoes, Singleton to Fresno. Presley DFA

@brianmctaggart: Grossman, Harris, Marisnick, Villar and Wojo made the club

All are the correct moves, IMO.

Kind of surprised Singleton is headed down, but I like it because I think it's the best shot they have at winning games. Not sure how I feel about Grossman over Presley but it will be interesting to see if he can finally get off to a decent start

How many starts does Wojo get before Obie is back?
