Every move the Astros make just shows how bad they are going to be this year. Now they are admitting all of these young prospects we are supposed to be so excited about aren’t really going to be able to carry the load.

Every move I see is a stop gap.

Plus, he has the added option for the manager to be able to call on him to lay down a bunt, or poke one through the infield, as a late/extra inning pinch hitter without burning one of the position players.
