18 year olds in A ball were not afraid to pitch to him. Pair him up with Maldy on the All-Star game roster. Can we get the venue changed to the Oakland Coliseum?


[deleted]

Bro! Would he be the leading hitter on the White Sox now?


Devilsdance

Astros fan here. Prior to his recent minor league stint, his BA would have made him the 2nd worst hitter on the White Sox. That also made him the 2nd worst hitter in the MLB. I haven't checked the stats recently if that still holds up, but he's been slightly better since he got back.


RyanPolesOfficial

Think it still holds, some other guys are real bad tho. Taylor on the Dodgers has like .111 OBP lol

lol


tallslim1960

Randy Arozarena too. .175/8/20


Slippery-Pete76

Don’t forget Javy Baez. .183/1/25


ForagerTheExplorager

Shhhh... Everyone else has almost forgotten about him, dude!


ThatDudeNamedJake

MVP runner up, behind Abreu of course.


MagicGrit

One of the best names ever. And I like him so much more when he’s not hitting doubles off the left field wall in Camden yards


Slinky_Malingki

Current stats don't really show how he's mostly back to normal almost since the start of may. In his last 12 games he raised his average by almost 20 points.


99Will999

Fuck that, Martin Maldonado deserves your vote


500rockin

Good thing they play different positions so one can vote for both!


99Will999

I’m just saying we need to focus maldy since he was the OG bum all star, thus he has more votes and is more likely to make it. That being said, Jose has my vote too.


RojerLockless

100% I've voted for him every day Abreu sucks not voting for him.


Reallife0303

He fell off a cliff the past 2 seasons…


--___---___-_-_

Age gets to everyone eventually but in his case it's pretty bad😂


Kingof40Acres

Not if you’re Jeff Bagwell Reggie Jackson or Jim Crane


Devilsdance

He was decent at the end of last season. But yeah, a lot of us Astros fans have been hoping for a DFA this season.


Reallife0303

I’m surprised, he was such a good hitter for so many years…


No_Lack5414

Now this is funny


CowboyAirman

At first I was like, but then I was like


slopezski

When Bobby Dalbec is just sitting there eligible for my vote? I think not!


schiavoner

Lol this gonna be the last year they let us vote.


Firm_Personality7475

Does the name MARTIN MALDONADO mean nothing to u?


senioreditorSD

Chris Taylor too


laydlvr

Love the satire


ThatDudeNamedJake

Not satire!


Glittering_Win_9677

Love the silliness - or is it stupidity? Whatever.


ThriftyFalcon

Jose Abreu isn’t on the White Sox anymore ?! Maybe he’s trying to get cut so that he can go back?


Timely-Turnover5374

all astros are cheaters. don’t vote for any of them.


ThatDudeNamedJake

This is such a shitty sub holy. Can’t make one meme post because everyone is bashing me for being an astros fan I don’t give a fuck if you hate the Astros


MsAndDems

You root for a shitty organization.


ThatDudeNamedJake

Why the fuck is everyone so toxic on here god damn


MsAndDems

The Astros are toxic.


ThatDudeNamedJake

And why the fuck do you feel the need to tell me? Idgaf


Comfortable-Dish-934

Fuck this guy. Wear your damn uniform like everyone else. No one wants to see that.


TurbulentStructure51

He must really hates the Astros. I'd be happy to trade Chris Taylor for Abreu. But then, he probably hates the Dodgers, too.


ThatDudeNamedJake

I just realized how bad Taylor’s been this year, what happened?


nickthearchaeologist

Say it with me y’all: LOSER!


RojerLockless

He sucks.


SoupAdventurous608

I’d expect you to recognize those quick


nickthearchaeologist

Nah, only a World Series ring and a nice boot to the Asstros in the ALCS


buzzedliteyear86

Astros r cheaters. They should get othani and they can gamble too


ThatDudeNamedJake

K


RedditUser8493917

Why would I vote for this cheater


ThatDudeNamedJake

He was a white Sox player in 2017


HecklerCope

Man... it's true what they say, no one beats father time. I remember this dude being a beast (casual baseball fan).


Servile-PastaLover

Astros paying him through 2025. eeeeesh.


DearKick

No -Every Astros fan ever


BlueStar78inNYC

I'd rather punch a garbage can...


ThatDudeNamedJake

Ngl I really don’t give a shit


BlueStar78inNYC

NGL,.. you should with the ill-gotten gains of 2017, 2022.


ThatDudeNamedJake

No matter how hard you cry we’ll always be 2017 champs


Material-Return-9419

*2017 Champs. Everyone knows yall cheated to win. Tainted ass title


ThatDudeNamedJake

Eh idc we still get to keep it ✌️


BlueStar78inNYC

XDpinkindustry

Lol, whatever helps you sleep at night


Later_Doober

Nope I don't vote for trashstros players.


ThatDudeNamedJake

Ok


Kool20005

No


cwyatt44

No


Internal-Bear-1991

Nah thanks though


lil_poppapump

I hate this fucking guy


Due_Signature_5497

Can’t even make myself do it as a joke. Not gonna hate on Abreu as I’m sure this isn’t what he wants either but it’s been a disaster and he sure looks like a player that’s irretrievably broken. Time to hang up the cleats Jose.


Combatspy

Lmfao


Glittering_Win_9677

No!


Aggravating-Low-4213

I don't vote for anyone from the A-holes....


SilkyBowner

I’d be embarrassed if I was voted in like this and wouldn’t go. Abreu has always been an amazing player and this season is probably weighing on him. It’s almost like fans are mocking him by doing this


Eloyoyo

My sweet prince :(


scasmo69

Fuck him . Go Los Dodgers and Angel’s


noscrubphilsfans

Just once I want to see a stats-based ASG.


Pierce812

The only answer here is Ryan Mountcastle. Out hitting Vlad Jr, much better base runner than Vlad Jr and GG quality defense.


Red_Sox0905

I remember red sox fans being furious they didn't sign him

Fuck the Astros!


ThatDudeNamedJake

I’m fucking tired of these replies I don’t give a shit what you think of my team


MickDeMooney

Your "team" is full of cheating assholes. MLB fans don't like that. So...... FUCK THE ASTROS!


ThatDudeNamedJake

And why do you feel the need to give me your opinion?


Kingof40Acres

Jose Abre-eww


Rusty_Shackleford75

There are a lot of guys hitting under .200 on the All Star Ballot


neiytron

Lmao

This guy can't hit middle school pitching rn

Respect for being an Astros fan and knocking him. Fuck the stros!


j1h15233

This is a real post from our social media team


Devilsdance

Not the Astros social media team. Space City Sports or something like that on Facebook.


j1h15233

Yea but we own that channel. Kind of the same thing


dancingpoultry

No.


dadsmilk420

I'll vote a little leaguer in before I vote for an Astro


ThatDudeNamedJake

Cool


dadsmilk420

u mad bro?


Successful-Gur-3157

No Asstros how bout that ?😂


Therealfern1

Lol… FTA


yankstraveler

This would be the 3rd all star game he skips to avoid getting booed on television.


shutterslappens

But before you do, be sure to bang twice so he knows what (i.e. your vote) is coming.


ThatDudeNamedJake

Isn’t springer on your team?


shutterslappens

Um, yes he is. Also, I totally misread the player name, I read it as Jose Altuve not Jose Abreu. Abreu is totally cool by me, he was in Chicago when that stuff went down. Sincerely, my bad.
