Very excited about him. Abreu is Strom's guy, and he was great today. I think the staff has enough depth and quality.

Meanwhile, our pal Tags thinks Siri will be the 4th OFer.

Latin Jake will do nicely as a backup CF. McCormick is a AAAA guy who is nothing special.

So is Siri

I know an unemployed veteran quite familiar with the organization who might have no other options but to be a 4th OF. Interested?

You're not wrong but the dirt cheap backup CF part is the key. Hardcastle & McCormick isn't a CF.

Jose Siri is a real person.



Never played in the majors. Former top prospect.

And I just watched the triple play

Love Altuve’s swing. Straw is definitely with the right team, displaying great baserunning instincts

Thought maybe they were in motion, then wondered why runner at 2nd almost got back, as I re-remembered the bases were loaded with ZERO outs

Straw is truly a dumbass

Javier pitched the "B squad" game today.

Cristian Javier’s day is done. 3.1 IP, 6 K, 2 BB, 1 H. Third inning was rolled with one out. #Astros

Pressly 0.2 IP 2 BB 1 K 1 R 0 ER. Runner scored on a scoring error. #Yankees Astros

Stanek 1 IP 1 BB

Taylor 1.1 IP 3 K. Strom had him face one extra hitter.



Btw, Odorizzi isn't on track to be ready for the fist trip or two through the rotation. So either Garcia or Bielak will likely get a couple starts in the 5 spot (or maybe Abreu).

Talent wise, its Garcia but based on spring results, Bielak is pitching better.

I wanted Yates. Glad it didn't happen. Also, we know well Springer's shite is going to linger for months.

The Astros have made an extension offer to Lance McCullers Jr. Uncertain of the likelihood something gets done at this point.

Also, checking in on our ace. Notice no splint on his supposedly fractured finger.

That was a GM move to get Odorizzi signed

No doubt in my mind

I hear the last hang up is whether Lance or the team will pay for the pine tar.

@JeffPassan
MLB's attempts to crack down on foreign substances are outlined in a memo obtained by ESPN. Among the plans:

- Increased monitoring by compliance officers
- Inspections of baseballs taken out of play that will use a third-party lab to check for substances
- Spin-rate analysis
