I agree 100%, but wonder how much of that is just a)luck, hes had good stretches both this and last year and then turned back into a pumpkin. And B) due to the Brewers shielding him from matchups they weren't before.

Tha k you liveforoctober, thought maybe I was alone in hearing it that way.

Ed, its from a somewhat famous interview, sounds like player is saying crap instead of cramp.
-
Is that him or Allen making that call there?
-
Maybe a blessing in disguise, was very suprised to see him come back out after he's ran out of gas a few times in the 6th this year. Also, eat bananas Miz, monkeys never crap.

You cant win em all, but I still have hope Zerpa is back next year, so not willing to call this one just yet.

Yeah just watched the replay, 1st AB bottom of the 3rd, suprised they let him stay in, he was very clearly trying not put any weight on that foot. Even when they had him walk around he was using the bat as a crutch.
-
What do you mean? Did he re-injure himself?

Im not sold on Paredes still being an option, Pena is hurt. Houston says its minor and hell be back close to the minimum, but hes been hurt all year and Houston is the worst with injury reports. Even if they get to the deadline with a healthy Pena, Jim Crane forced Correa's contract on that team, and hes an IL stint waiting to happen. TL;DR, the Astros are gonna need Paredes and Jim Crane is a meddling idiot.

I have this wild theory that the sinker/slider pitcher should start throwing the occasional slider. He is at 70% sinker, and that number is trending up, especially after he spammed them his last game. I noticed he kept shaking off William in that game, id love to know if he was shaking off sliders. I still have faith, lots of wbc relievers are struggling, and sometimes it takes guys awhile to adjust to a new team.

That Correa trade was so strange, has Crane meddling written all over it. They liked Paredes enough to have him be a centerpiece for Kyle Tucker, and now need to move him so they can shove Correa's carcass out there.

I get why people say you can never have too much pitching, but you can only have 13 on the roster. Id much rather see them give that 5 spot to a young guy with some upside, than roll out a mediocre veteran for depth just to have a repeat of last year where guys like Patrick & Henderson are stuck in Nashville. A guy like Montgomery would be good, he won't block anyone right away, or id love to see them trade for a guy w options if they're really worried about depth there.

Have been refreshing this site for this article since I saw the deal, great work as always Jack!.

Cam Smith becoming an all-star for us right after Tucker leaves Chicago would be pretty hilarious.
