Charlie Pallilo: Astros have to acquire a closer they can trust in tight games
Pallilo Points
14 June 2018
The Mariners are playing really well right now, but Charlie Pallilo fully expects the Astros to firmly hold first place once the playoffs roll around. Despite Ken Giles being perfect in save opportunities this season, the Astros will need some more help from the bullpen as they approach the playoffs. Two names that could help the Astros are Orioles reliever Zach Britton and Padres reliever Brad Hand.
Rafael Stone finally breaks his silence on the blockbuster trade that sent Jalen Green out of Houston in exchange for Kevin Durant, and he didn’t hold back.
Stone praised Jalen as a “great player” and said the Houston Rockets loved having him, but made it clear this was a necessary move to win now. Was it the right call? And more importantly, what does Jalen Green really think about being traded?
Plus, Stone also addressed the Cam Whitmore trade talks, offering high praise for the young forward and what he brings to the table.
