2026 Astros

Abreu and Pearson made it interesting

Astros have won 4 of their last 5.

Got a 4 game series at Arlington starting tomorrow night.

Lambert had 105 pitches in 5 innings and we had good D and O for him.  Gonna be hard in Arlington but it can be done,  Alvarez should be back

I think Peña is a huge part of that lineup. I like him better than Correa….sorry. Won this one without Alvarez and Altuve. Walker is amazing. Hope Alvarez comes back soon.

fans were angry when Dana Brown traded UT Mauricio Dubon for IF Nick Allen.

These are their numbers for this season:

Dubon: .265 AVG, .317 OBP, .717 OPS ($6.1M)

Allen: .297 AVG, .366 OBP, .771 OPS ($1.4M)

Its ok to love Dubon and not hate Allen or the deal.

Yes. But at the time Dubon IMO was the best utility man in MLB.  Allen is good but was unheard of at the time.  Just saying.  Only 4.5 back.

The trade had more to do about the money being saved ($4.7 mil) and able to spend elsewhere.
