Framber Valdez Calls Out Astros Coaching Staff Over Defensive Positioning
From through an interpreter, not broadcast on the Astros postgame show, asked if he thought about the positioning and if he approached the coaching staff about the positioning. Quote, “I don’t have to ask the coaches about that. I feel like baseball is a game of common sense. With me as a lefty pitcher, they don’t hit a lot of fly balls against me.” When I saw it went through, I said it was going to be a hit, but then I saw the right fielder playing center field. And you know, we have a center fielder for that. I feel like the right fielder should have been playing right field. You know what, Bravo, I love this. I feel like this is a deserved from after the Astros scored 11 runs since last start and Frober had 12 strikeouts. If this crap is the reason that I end up with a no decision, I would be pissed,
After another dominant outing with 12 strikeouts, Framber Valdez didn’t hold back when speaking through an interpreter following the Houston Astros’ latest loss.
He questioned the coaching staff’s defensive positioning, saying it should’ve been common sense with him on the mound — a lefty who doesn’t allow many fly balls.
Framber voiced frustration over a hit he expected to be caught if the right fielder hadn’t been shading toward center field. After the Astros scored only 11 runs since his last start, it’s understandable why he’s fed up.

Add this to the Ump missing a third strike.
Whelp boys, its over. Hess gone this winter….it was fun while it lasted
Can’t believe we lost and Framber pitched lights outs like that 😮
Shut up. So the potential manager of the year is being questioned by the worst head case on the team? While conveniently deflecting from the fact that he couldn’t calm himself down after not getting the call on the pitch before. Framber can pitch but he’s got plenty of problems. His manager isn’t one of them. And you clowns co-signing his frustration is a joke. Nobody likes them losing, but this is not team ball by Framber.
He's gone after this season for sure 300 million dollar man
Espada loses these games for us much of the time.
We was so lucky first half of the season now we are who we thought we are at the beginning of the season 😂
I’m going to miss Framber, he’s a true artist
