I AM YELLING!!!!

[Ross Villarreal @SportsRV]

In two games Yainer Díaz has gone from a .637 to .714 OPS

[Ross Villarreal @SportsRV]

Tons of injuries, Burrows & Imai have been big negatives, Weiss washed out, Hunter and Hader missed months, Altuve has a 0.0 bWAR, Meyers & Cole in AAA, Smith didn't progress, Abreu regressed...

And the Astros are a game above .500 and in 1st place. Insane year.

The Astros re-signed Braden Shewmake to a minor-league deal

[Michael Schwab @michaelschwab13]

How much has Josh Hader helped the Astros since he’s returned?

The bullpen ERA is 2.98 since he retuned on June 2nd (3rd best in MLB since then)

Before that? Worst in the league bullpen ERA of 5.16

Most reliever wins (16) and saves (19) in MLB since that date.

Also, in games they are leading since June 2nd:

After 6: 16-1
After 7: 15-1
After 8: 19-0

The Astros have the best record in the AL over the last 58 games.

[Ethan @ESabro3]

During his 6wks or so with the Angels, Texeira .358 with 13HR and a 1.081OPS.

The Angels won the ALW with a 100-62 record, but were eliminated in the ALDS by BOS. A series in which Texeira went 7-15

Texeira then spurned the Angels in free agency, choosing instead to sign with NYY on a gawdy 8yr/$180m deal

As compensation, the Angels received a 1st round compensation pick (#25 overall)

The Angels then used that pick to select a HS outfielder from Millville, NJ named Mike Trout

[Chandler Rome @Chandler_Rome]

Jadyn Fielder, the son of Prince Fielder, is coming back to the Astros in the Lance McCullers Jr. deal, sources tell @TheAthletic. Jadyn Fielder is a 21-year-old, left-handed hitter with an .813 OPS in A-ball. He signed with the Brewers in 2024 as an UDFA.

[Michael Schwab @michaelschwab13]

A lot of teams were interested in Lance McCullers but the Brewers had the best deal. Couldn’t be a better situation for him for a pitching situation, he still got a lot left in the tank.
