Conger looks good behind the plate

[nate]

He has thrown out 8 of 23 base stealers 35%.  Hopefully he finally gets his chance to be the starter.

[CaliAngel]

Nice to hear you say that Nate.

 

I have been rooting for him since his debut and would love to see him become a starter that improves as years go on.

 

I like his seemingly uncoordinated swings too haha

[nate]

I always root for the OC guys on the team.  He seems like a really good dude too.

Agree. Chris Iannetta has never proven himself to be a frontline starter.

[NJHalo]

I always assume every thread title is sarcasm, and I have to read them to prove otherwise

[Halos of Anaheim]

Just made a great throwout play after letting a pop up drop due to some Astro player/fan shouting ''I got it!''. 

 

Grit.

[Halo4life714]

Gotta give him his due. That was a money throw to get the runner at 3rd. He kept his composure after the mistake drop.

[seenoevil]

The kid got a gun

[Justabitoutside]

He's starting to prove he belongs there. Great news!

[tdawg87]

I'm still a little cautious regarding his throwing accuracy, but he has a cannon. If he can get some consistency with it he'll be tough to run on.

[SoWhat]

I'd rather see Conger behind the plate than Ianetta. Chris does an extremly poor job of calling a game

[Ohtaniland]

Bill Stoneman is smiling.

[nate]

Conger crushed that ball to CF.  Any other park and it is gone.

The Astros have the worst stadium I have ever seen. It's like the city of Houston went to a rehabilitation center for mentally handicapped people and had a contest to see who could come up with the best design for a baseball stadium.

lmao

[tdawg87]

OH HEY LETS PUT A HILL AND A BIG POLE IN THE MIDDLE OF CENTER FIELD

[Angel Oracle]

The hill has been done before (Crosley Field had one in LF.

Lol @ another zinger from tdawg.

Cheer up, maybe a hurricane will take it out someday.

[tdawg87]

Then they will just build something even stupider. Like a left field wall that is only 190 feet from home plate but 200 feet high, and a shark tank in center field.

[Docwaukee]

I feel like he's much better than Ianetta at framing.  He's only 25 and has shown to be solid on both offense and defense.  Having a 25yo catcher to be with the team the next few years would be great.  At this point, why not give him the lions share of the starts and make Ianetta expendable.  He's got more upside. 

 

We know what we've got with Ianetta whereas Conger could be more than we've seen.

My brother ran into him and Trumbo about a month or so ago at Disneyland. He said Hank was really cool and friendly and Trumbo seemed annoyed and completely uninterested in talking with fans. My brother's friend got a picture with them and, just like my brother said, Hank is smiling and Trumbo looks like he can't wait to get the hell out of there.
