In light of this week’s trade news, you know what time it is. For those who missed it: the Texans sent would-be/never-was franchise center Juice Scruggs to the Detroit Lions for tailback David Montgomery and Swiss-army-o-lineman Tytus Howard to the Cleveland Browns for a practice squad pick. Caserio has been around long enough for us […]
With the 2026 season opener three weeks away, most of the Astros’ Opening Day 26-man roster is coming into focus. A few spots, however, remain unsettled. Here’s my first pass at how things could shake out: Starting pitchers: Hunter Brown, Christian Javier, Tatsuya Imai, Mike Burrows, Spencer Arrighetti, Lance McCullers Jr Also considered: Colton Gordon, AJ Blubaugh […]
The Houston Rockets’ final opportunity to add an external contributor comes by way of the buyout market, which is currently underway. (Well, quality contributors who haven’t been unrestricted free agents all season, that is.) The deadline for teams to waive players was Sunday, March 1. Will the Rockets be active? We’d heard a significant amount […]
Much like Monday night’s game, tonight will be another test for the Houston Rockets as they take on a Golden State Warriors team that is decimated by injuries. Houston might have some injuries of their own, too. The Warriors have, of course, had Houston’s number in recent years and have even beaten the Rockets when […]
Washington Wizards forward Kyshawn George will miss three weeks with a partially torn UCL in his left elbow, the team announced Tuesday. George injured his elbow in the Wizards’ 123-118 loss to the Houston Rockets on Monday. He left the game in the third quarter and didn’t return before missing the team’s next game against […]

After a World Baseball Classic exhibition against Team Netherlands yesterday, the Orioles return to their Grapefruit League schedule with their first spring matchup against the Astros. It’s not exactly a recognizable lineup for Houston, whose batting order includes names like Joseph Sullivan, Lucas Spence, Colin Briggs, Ethan Frey, and Riley Unroe. (Once again, I have […]

Something has been in the air lately, almost like a bug—or perhaps an injury bug? Jokes aside, both Amen Thompson and Jabari Smith Jr. have had ankle injuries in recent games. Amen hurt his ankle in Monday’s game against the Washington Wizards, while Jabari was injured during last Thursday’s game against the Orlando Magic. Houston’s […]
The Cleveland Browns made a trade with the Houston Texans to receive their starting right tackle, Tytus Howard. He played and started in 93 games for Houston since being drafted by the team in 2019. The Texans were his only team until Cleveland GM Andrew Berry sent a fifth-round draft pick for the talented offensive […]
Let’s start off by being honest. Left field is a bit of a quagmire for the Astros as they aren’t sure if Yordan Alvarez will get a majority of the starts out there or if they can follow through with their plan to DH him. I should not that in the Hall of Fame Index […]

Every NBA player has a role. That’s not to say that every NBA player has the right role. I worked at a law firm for five years. For the first year, I worked in the file room. I did well there because it would definitely be possible to train a primate to do the job. […]
With Houston playing good ball out of the All-Star break this a reminder that yes, you are still allowed to be mad at the Jared McCain trade. The Rockets seem to have gotten their act together since this blog started tracking their progress and the 2026 first-round pick they owe to the Sixers. They went […]
Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic calls the current situation untenable. MLB Insider Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic believes the Astros must trade 3B Isaac Paredes and get a lefthanded hitting outfielder. It’s a great idea in theory, one Astros GM Dana Brown has been trying to execute for several months. There’s just one slight problem […]
Over the next couple of weeks, I’ll be rolling out a series of prospect previews for Spring Training. This week we are looking at an up and coming bat: Will Bush Bush took an unconventional path to professional baseball, spending a year at Tyler Junior College before the Astros selected him in the 16th round […]
Last night’s loss by the Washington Wizards — this time to the Houston Rockets — seems from the numbers like it was at least a somewhat entertaining game. They fell behind by as much as 19, then went ham in the fourth quarter to trim the final margin to just five. Now, it was one […]
It’s been a newsworthy week for the Detroit Lions, and that has set the stage for what could be a busy offseason for the team. On Monday alone, the Lions agreed to trade David Montgomery to the Houston Texans and officially cut 2025 starting center Graham Glasgow. On this week’s PODcast, we discuss the roster […]
