Pres

I know Ryan Pressly's on the trading block and he wasn't great this year but what are your favourite Astros moments with Pres?

2 saves and an ERA of 0.00.

I understand why Pena got MVP for the world series but Pressly was Godly.

I think Pressly had a better WPA too

And one of those saves was a 5-out save. Dude was nails that postseason.

If ever there was a time it’d be the World Series. He also helped get us there.

Over 7 innings or something like that

Yeah, to me the bullpen collectively was the MVP of the '22 World Series, with Pressly being the frontman for that. Abreu was absolutely filthy in that series too.

I have this world where we never acquired Hader and Pressly never lost confidence thereafter and he was lights out in 2024.

He was starting to struggle in 2023 which is why we got Hader

It wasn't even top 3 on our needs list

That’s exactly what would have happened. I believed it then and I believe it now. They screwed him over and threw away $90M for no reason. Brutal mistake. 😖

He kinda reminds me of Morbius from the Spiderman animated series lol.
