DateQuestionAnswer
2011-02-28 13:00:00Can Jordan Lyles be a perennial innings-eater with low ERA?
(josh from VA)
He can be a perennial innings-eater with a average to slightly below-average ERA. And that is IMMENSELY valuable. (Kevin Goldstein)
2010-08-17 14:45:00Given Jordan Lyles's success this year, do you think he figures into the Houston rotation next year?
(Lyles from Houston)
Well, if Brian Moehler has figured into their rotations recently, I don't see why not. Let him pitch in spring training, and take it from there. Maybe he isn't in the rotation at the onset of the season but he could be there by the summer. The Astros finally seem to understand what they need to do, and keeping someone that could develop more at the major league level, in the minors, is not progressive or helpful to the organization. Then again, he should be close to ready -- we don't want another Homer Bailey situation. (Eric Seidman)
2010-07-01 14:00:00Why no love for Jordan Lyles? Is he the only thing us Astros fans have to look forward to, or is JD Martinez legit?
(Lastros from Houston, TX)
Not very excited about Martinez, unfortunately. Lyles however, I'm a big fan of. Just because I don't think a guy is a Top prospect in ALL OF BASEBALL, doesn't mean I'm dinging him. (Kevin Goldstein)
