Ah, interesting. Didn’t realize that!

Bregman is obviously a superstar, but do you think Wrigley’s deep dimensions down the line hurt him after having short porches in Houston and Boston his whole career?

Yeah makes sense. I could definitely see us hosting either the Bills or Chargers in the AFC championship

The only way we host a divisional is if all 3 AFC wildcard teams win, right?

Also worth noting, this is for the SOV tiebreaker. If Houston and Indy finish tied (Houston getting 7 points and Indy getting 6), Houston should get the final playoff spot based on the next tiebreaker, SOS

I wonder if that’s what is driving all the trade speculation around Paredes. If he’s gone, Altuve moves back to 2nd, Yordan DH, and Cam is full time in the outfield. I don’t want Paredes gone, just hearing it in Astros circles

What would an ideal lineup look like next year? I’m thinking something like:

Peña SS
Correa 3B
Altuve DH
Alvarez LF
Walker 1B
Paredes 2B
Meyers CF
Diaz C
Sanchez / Smith RF

Bench (who would be cut?):
Dubon
Urias
McCormick
Caratini
Sanchez / Smith

How nice of Altuve to give a live demonstration after class, too
