The Astros recalled Cy Sneed to take Aledmys Diaz’s place on the roster.


This has a "we need an extra pitcher right now and everyone is out of options and we can survive without Diaz for 10 days" feel to it.

It does, but so much needed rest is going to be missed by other position players.

Lots of mental midgetry there between Pettis and Altuve.

Altuve, for as good a player as he is, does some of the dumbest shite ever on the bases.

Well. I’ve seen enough. Would rather watch a meaningless saints preseason game than this retardedness.

You’re right. Flip it back to the game and Bridgewater fumbles a snap on 4th and 3.

Maybe there’s a good movie on.

Altuve is not a smart player. He can hit, but he has no instincts on the bases or in the field.

How could anybody miss a chance to see Josh Reddick at the plate vs a LH pitcher when he is presently in a slump worse than what caused Colby Rasmus to quit baseball?

I literally LMAO'd that Springer was in that multiple choice poll for "Which player's plate approach do you want your son to emulate?"

At least they didn't have Altuve though.

I know Reddick has always been the kind of player he is, and made the A’s all-time team, usually playing well there.

But he is lost, bad, no approach, career threatening bad rt now.

Hinch throws him out there vs a LH pitcher. I really can’t get past an overwhelming sense of feeling like frick You, Hinch

Pretty good start so far from Greinke, 25 pitches through 3

He’s hitting lefties better than righties this year, but I feel like that came before this mega slump.

So much for my prediction of an offensive explosion today.
