More major league teams are bringing their guys up to teams close to their home ballpark. This is done to make a quick move to get them on their big league roster.

I get that, but it is not like he was in South America, he was in Corpus Christi, Texas just 3 hours from downtown Houston. I know Sugar Land is only a 1/2 hour away, but again, Corpus is not that far from Houston.

Like was stated earlier, I think it is a short term assignment to see him against veteran talent in the hopes to move him up pretty quickly to the big league team.

Article: "(Arrighetti) focused too much on commanding the baseball and, as a result, started “unintentionally walking more people by trying to be too perfect.”

Thanks BJ Ryan

BJ Ryan sends two pitchers up for a chance at a cup of coffee and walks away.

Appreciate what he did (the first part)

Spencer Arrighetti made his Triple-A debut today at Constellation Field. He struck out five, surrendered three runs and walked two across five innings. He generated 33 swings and got 12 whiffs -https://t.co/otuQ1mUiAH

3 starts and then the big leagues (just my guess, no insider info)

Actually I’d like to revise my prediction. 2 starts and a call up, given the way the all star break and rotation falls.

Astros need help in the bull pen . . . lots of help . . . would be nothing better at this time to see a Cajun come to the rescue . . .

Looks like he is getting closer and closer to the big leagues . . .

It's a hitters league, so don't expect an ERA under 3.50 or 4.00. Javier has lost his velocity and may have to go on IL before the all-star break. That may be his break.

Good point, you might be right. The Astros pitching is just a dumpster fire right now.

Actually, their starting pitching is top 5 in MLB last time I checked. Their offense and bullpen has been bad.
