00:00run across some news real quick just coming from the astros no real surprise here but um
00:07just got word clint that roster move has been made the astros have placed infielder jeremy
00:15peña on the 10-day il with a left calf strain and have recalled infielder rene delgato from
00:26triple a sugar land so there goes peña again i mean just can't never i mean he's starting to be
00:35one too man he always he's got a calf a hamstring always it's not ideal he's high strong boy you
00:41can tell by the way he walks he runs and walks boy he is tightly wound yeah he's got whatever
00:46that
00:46that nico does like nico collins has these where he hits these these soft tissue these injuries all
00:52the time where he has them but he missed the hamstring and the hamstring earlier this year
00:57caused him to miss a good amount of time hopefully the calf doesn't cause as much i know uh hearing
01:04from um from uh from joe a spot it was mild is what he had initially said but we'll see
01:15uh we'll get to
01:16a lot here but we're just getting this news it's official no surprise this this one this one hurts
01:25just because you're in the midst of the climb and we just know right now those top five it is
01:32hard
01:33to replace them and the lineup looks so much different when just one of them are out and then it
01:39causes
01:39you to feel like now i gotta have these guys in all the time so pulling him out for a
01:45certain period
01:46of time to bring in the delgados or the nick allens in games to have to play is is just
01:53is just
01:54tough well it just it puts so much pressure on altuve yordan alvarez uh isak paredes um christian
02:02walker i mean it puts so much pressure on those guys because they got to carry more of the load
02:05now
02:05i say that with with trammell and and hell i can't can't do it can't talk about it without
02:11talking about cam smith with cam smith swinging it the way he's swinging it and low perfido has
02:15even been clutch you mentioned delgado delgado was clutch a couple a couple of different games over
02:19that last run i mean it just puts so much pressure on the top of that lineup the stars in
02:24this lineup
02:25to be even better than they are and it puts a ton of pressure on the others at the bottom
02:29of the
02:29lineup that you feel like it's a luxury when they're swinging the bat really well i mean you need you're
02:34going to need those guys more and more with as as injuries like this pop yeah so a tough one
02:39there
02:40man and i just this is just me and i know some of some some fans have been here how
02:51you feel about
02:52altuve leading off these days don't start it again i'm just asking you like because did you lead the
02:58show monday that when i was out with altuve uh carrying the astros that friday night after we left here
03:03if y'all disrespected him well no i mean i i was fair and i talked about a sunday too
03:07but um
03:09that's about right but i'm just saying i i i like that's that's the move generally that happens
03:15is pain you out and they have now moved altuve up in the leadoff spot yeah no i i'm i'm
03:23good with it
03:24i would be i would be that you know i'm not really i mean i don't know if there's anybody
03:27else to put
03:28there but yeah i think i think you could you could understand or at least method to the madness you
03:33could understand that part of it if it were bryce if bryce was going to play um yeah you know
03:37that
03:38that kind of that that i could see um but i i would go out to vey he's comfortable there
03:43obviously he's
03:44one of your best hitters uh i would go with out to van getting as many at bats as as
03:48i possibly could
03:49if it were me so i i'm not going to be i'm not going to be beside myself either way
03:53but but yeah i'm
03:54super comfortable with out to me in that spot yeah so that's uh that's the latest jeremy pain when the
03:58lineup comes out i'm certain altuve is going to be in the i know that i wouldn't go paredes
04:05he's hot right now it just feel like especially if it's i the reason why i don't hate it is
04:13who
04:13altuve or paredes paredes yeah is it feels like alvarez is much more comfortable with people he's
04:21gonna see some pitches and he's able to point yeah he's able to see pitches and and he'll he
04:28before he's taking his he's got he's gonna start taking steps to the plate he's gonna rush his
04:35warm-up with altuve good point and then and then it's just like right now at this point i know
04:41altuve
04:41has has started to swing the bat better um since we called him since i called him a side dish
04:47a bit
04:48better but still i mean i mean it's it's it's like he ain't out he ain't old altuve yet and
04:53it
04:53just it feels different like as you said yeah altuve in the five spot like that that that feels like
05:00you got a really good five hole hitter altuve leading off setting a pace undisciplined with his
05:08with the way his approach is and everything you talk me into it you talk i would go paredes
05:16alvarez walker and then decide i probably put him in a four i probably put him in a four spot
05:21i mean
05:21i mean it put him in a four spot i mean they had taylor trammell there yeah let's be honest
05:26like
05:27a conversation about the four and five hole with what you do without tuve is not crazy given what
05:31they've done like i think he should still be in the top four of the like right now that there's
05:36no
05:36he should still be in the top four it's just whoo
