What I am about to say is completely unfair.
What I am about to say is a fact. It is not an opinion.
What has been the impact of Jose Abreu on the Astros this season?
Here are the Astros records with and without Jose Abreu updating what I wrote in the "Astros: How Long? (larrythegm.com)" article the day BEFORE he was released.
The Astros have been one of the worst teams in the MLB with Abreu.
The Astros have been one of the best teams in the MLB without Abreu.
The decision to sign Abreu and to keep him until June 14th belongs to one person- Jim Crane. Jim, you wanted to F around without a GM and you found out.
It is unfair to say, but the impact of Jose Abreu on the Astros this season has been mind-blowingly negative.
How high can the Astros fly this season without Abreu? The early data would say VERY high.
