The other move we've got for 40 man consideration is shifting McCullers to the 60 day IL. But Alvarez will almost surely take Reeds spot. Theres no reason to carry him any longer

It's a possibility. Who's to say they won't go with a starting OF of Brantley, Jake and Reddick and carry Fisher as a reserve bat behind Kemp. It just hit me that Tucker doesn't automatically slot into playing time if they called him up.

Honestly I think it should be Tucker. He doesn't have a clear path to playing time in Houston outside of an injury situation. This is their shot to get another look at him.

Hell even if it’s fiaher I just hope that whoever they call up they treat right. Play them every day and let them get into a groove. Don’t let them take lumps for two days and then sit on the pine the next three and have to dwell on it.

Re the days off I have no problem with giving regular rest but I think we take it to extremes with most guys. Brantley and the catcher spot are an exception to me. Brantley has a lengthy injury history and is crucial to this team. Chirinos can’t take a 120 game pounding behind the plate and he’s also proven crucial to this team.

Was in attendance tonight and will be back tomorrow so hope we keep it rolling

Agreed. Wish we would give Stubbs a look and trade for a strong defense/no hit type in July if he can’t cut it.

He's out a month easy. Severe pull or tear of the hammy unfortunately.

6 weeks minimum, but with the Astros, 8

Look at the bright side, no MVP, and his long term deal just got more team friendly. LOL

Charlise is hotter than Daniella, IMO.

The Astros are calling up outfielder Derek Fisher from Triple A, sources tell The Athletic.

I think it sucks, but the melt here is going to be humorous.

I had the game on but the sound off last night. What did they say about Altuve? Back in time for the WC game?

They’re not going to call Alvarez up until June, minimum. Super 2, correct?
