Looking like Javier Baez chasing everything in the dirtJazz had no chance that whole AB with those swings
It’s why they haven’t developed a viable starter who was here long term since 46 and yeah I absolutely hate the idea of your top slugger hitting 2nd. Makes pitching around him an easy call. Same reason it made no sense to have Soriano hitting in front of Jeter.Monty showed more heart in bigger games, but because it didn't jive with their data, they didn't want him anymore.
The Astros have lost Javier, Urquidy, Garcia, Verlander is hurt and it doesn't even matter. Why? Houston has confidence in what they're doing and who they're entrusting with the ball. Total opposite from this team when anytime someone reaches 2nd base, Harkey's always 3 inches away from the phone.
side note: Judge has 100 RBI and it's August 2. It's crazy how many RBI's Judge has been cheated out of just by hitting him 2nd.
are you saying Verdugo isn't?Weird to me that Torres now twice is the only one Boone is willing to discipline, outside of Judge everyone else on the team warranted a benching at some point during this awful stretch but only the guy on the way out does Boone have the balls to do anything
He was a free agent last winterWho they wanted for Snell again?
They absolutely have one of the worst. He’s always more concerned with winning a trade or getting it done his way than getting it done in general. This is also why they can’t develop talent in house.Thanks Cashman for not trading Gleyber.
And I see Verdugo went 0 for 5 and Cashman also said that Verdugo's spot on the team was solid. With not trading for Flaherty, it really feels like we have one of the worst GMs in the league.
Then come October, he better hit.Judge is amazing brehs. This fool Cashman is about to waste this guys career it would be a travesty if Judge didn’t get a ring
