On this week’s Talking Stros, I suspected that this weird two-game series versus the St. Louis Cardinals would be the perfect time for the Houston Astros to call up A.J. Reed. With the travel day Monday, it would have been the perfect chance for them to set up today as A.J. Reed day in Houston to win the fans back over. However, nothing ever developed there.
It’s understandable, and Reed is not having the season that we expected at Triple-A this season, ss he was even yanked from a game for lack of hustle.
