SMART MOVE or EPIC DISASTER?: Astros call up Jake Bloss vs WHITE HOT Orioles

Baseball Analyst Jeremy Booth Joins the Ryan Ripken Show to discuss the upcoming series between the Orioles and Astros.

Without Pressley the Astro's are probably 2 or 3 games back of the M's. Big issue with the Astros is they refuse to play the players that deserve to play the most, the most. Scott, Martinez, Montero and Abreu all been way better than Pressley. Abreu for years. Yet they keep rolling him out in the 8th. Finally cut Jose Abreu but man did that take a long time They bring him back from his absence in the most important series vs the Mariners and plug him ending their hot streak. Now they are attached to Singleton playing 1B. Dubon is miles better than Singleton in every aspect other than power. Loperfido > Singleton, Cabagge and McCormick yet his back in the minors. They need to lock Dubon in at 1b, Loperfido at LF and needs to be Hader, Abreu, Scott in the 9th, 8th and 7th.

Used to hangout with him a bunch, he has always been smart and a hard worker. I suspect it'll be a tough first game, but after that he will quickly adapt to the new normal.

Jake meters one hell of a player!Its four guys that are killing Astros Framber Valdez Montero Verlander and Presley!! We have to get these guys out of line up! Montero might as well be pitching batting practice for little league!Now the team is coming on fire but if they keep putting in the mentioned pitchers were doomed!Also leaving them in to long when they are stink up the place is a problem!Yank them don’t wait until 7 runs are scored!Lipada needs to have someone warming up to immediately replace these guys!They have killed us all season and I blame the coach for not getting them out!Two walks in one inning out!Its got to be frustrating to our team to rally multi runs only to have these losers throw game away over and over and over again!Montero isn’t worth a flip and Framber either!Verlander three innings and out!Hes gotten older and his stuff not as good after three innings!Pressly I don’t know what’s going home with him maybe he’ll find himself!Any way we have some outstanding players and even singleton doing good job!What hurt him a few games was all the confidence deflation with Bagwells Jose Abriue mess!John was getting on base walks hits and home runs but with Astros pushing their big mistake back in line up hurt Singleton!!Want success keep bagwell out of decision process! This team right now with tucker added back will win if we can find pitchers immediately!We just tore up one of the best teams in baseball!But throw a turd in the bowl like Montero and Framber we get beat by the worst team in baseballWake up front office we can’t afford to throw away any more games!How many times does it take to embarrass our team with these losers on mound!Sorry but I said it!Giving Verlander a pass but only three innings and out!Hes a winner but has gotten older and he’s not a loser!

Jake may have the ability, but the lack of AAA experience will be his downfall.

We all saw what happened with Hoiiday, who had short stints at every minor league levels . I don't agree with throwing this kid to the sharks his first time in majors
