walldrill Posted July 5, 2012 Report Posted July 5, 2012 I love watching him play the game. A lot like when Biggio came up. Hustle gains a lot of respect, at least from us baseball purists.
shovel Posted July 5, 2012 Report Posted July 5, 2012 Altuve is an all-star because they need one person from the Astros to represent the team. Altuve is is a up-and-comer, but to compare him to Biggio right now is a stretch. Wishful thinking, at best.
ForeverADog Posted July 10, 2012 Report Posted July 10, 2012 Biggio was the model of consistency. Altuve has a long way to go just to even be eligible to be called consistent. However I love his approach and he has a good chance.
ForeverADog Posted July 30, 2012 Report Posted July 30, 2012 Yes. And the organization is hoping he stays this good. Just needs to work on plate discipline.
coachdaddy Posted August 11, 2012 Report Posted August 11, 2012 Hard to compare Biggio to anybody. I believe he is the only player to make All-Stars as a catcher and secondbaseman. I cant think of many infielders that have shown starting an AS game in different infield positions, Cal Ripken Jr I think started SS and 3rd.
king Posted April 21, 2013 Author Report Posted April 21, 2013 Altuve becomes the fastest Astro to get 250 hits.
king Posted July 13, 2013 Author Report Posted July 13, 2013 He just got a 5 year ext. Worth 30 mill.
