[La Lima] We just had Astros broadcaster Steve Sparks on with us on @SportsTalk790 and he told me and @SeanUnfiltered that the Astros “dodged a bullet” with Yordan Alvarez’s knee injury. They’ll know more on how sore he is when Yordan gets to the ballpark today.

1. Fingers crossed.

2. I’m glad to hear amputation is off the table.

3. Knowing the front office, Yordan likely had surgery last night and isn’t expected back till 2027. 

4. Yordan I give you permission to dog it for the rest of the season. Just settle for the single next time dude.

6. Thank god, now play this man at DH permanently please. Bad knees + huge frame. This should be common sense, we can’t afford to lose him.

   Edit: I know it happened trying to stretch a single I’m just saying he should only be DH.

7. first the sliding knee injury and now he was nearly shot!?!

10. While this is good news, I’ll believe it when he’s back in the line up.

11. “He’s going to be all right”

    “No, his left knee is totally destroyed so he’s going to be all right”

12. I just hope he’s back by 2026 knowing our front office lol

13. I’m not gonna believe anything until he puts on the cleats and steps into the batters box

14. Dodged a bullet and we’re good? Or dodged a bullet and hit by a bus?

15. Take my, the fans, and the entire city’s knee, Yordan!
