Astros going to spank that arse this year. We can get blown out every game BUT the braves. I would like to win those games.




I am just playing. I hope Michael Bourn can have a monster year.

I will give my pre spring training prediction that Medlen, Martinez, and Varvarro will close out the pen, although Medlen is a lock.

Who do you like for 5th starter? Delgado?

I think Jairo beats out Varvaro, and Medlen wins the fifth spot in the rotation while Hudson is out.

I hope we don't stick Delgado/Teheran in the bullpen

The fact that Fredi has suggested it is mind blowing. I don't think Wren will allow it though.

Really going to miss alex's glove at short, sure hope the kid can at least pick it and any offense will be a bonus because I don't trust Wilson as our starter

How long is Huddy out for?

I haven't kept up with any of the offseason stuff because I'm still a little pissed at how last season ended.

I honestly have no idea what Fredi will do here. I'd use Delgado and leave Medlen in the pen just so we don't tire anyone out early, but I wouldn't argue with either Medlen or Delgado really.

Asencio is definitely the favorite right now. I like Varvaro's stuff when he can harness it and keep it in the strike zone. He threw well last year down the stretch. Both guys will see some decent action in the bigs this year, though.

Insane the amount of pitching we have even with Huddy out.
