Astros Suspend Reymin Guduan

By Mark Polishuk | August 4, 2019 at 6:06pm CDT

The Astros have suspended left-hander Reymin Guduan for what GM Jeff Luhnow described as a “disciplinary issue” at Triple-A, the Houston Chronicle’s Chandler Rome writes.  Guduan will be suspended for the rest of the season.  Specifics aren’t known about what caused the punishment, as Luhnow only said that Guduan “broke our team rules and is being disciplined because of it.”

Guduan has appeared in 32 games for the Astros over the last three seasons, with just 24 2/3 innings amassed over that limited big league action.  The hard-throwing southpaw has an 8.03 ERA as a Major Leaguer, including an 11.81 mark in only 5 1/3 frames this season.  Even in the minors, Guduan hasn’t exhibited much consistency — a 4.64 ERA over 382 career innings in Houston’s farm system, with an 11.1 K/9 that has been undermined by a 6.2 BB/9.  Between this lack of a track record and now a lengthy suspension, it’s fair to wonder if this could mark the end of Guduan’s time with the Astros organization.

Though Guduan wasn’t likely to be much of a factor for the Astros down the stretch this season, though his absence does remove some depth in an area that was already something of a thin area for the team.  As Rome notes, Wade Miley, Framber Valdez, and Cionel Perez are the only left-handers on Houston’s entire 40-man roster.  Of that trio, Miley is a starter, Valdez and Perez are in the minors, and Perez is additionally on the injured list.  While the Astros haven’t much sweated their lack of left-handed relievers over the last couple of years, the lack of an August waiver trade period this season would make it all the more difficult for the team to acquire another pitcher if it felt another lefty arm was needed.

      That’s why he’s suspended. Pitchers aren’t allowed to be that awful on the Astros.

    I like to think I am somewhat familiar with most big leaguers aside from a few AL teams that I never get to see like the Rangers or Mariners. But even with them, I know their players that have been around more than a year. But I have legit never heard of this guy even once.

      That’s a simple explanation. He’s only been called up when the bullpen has injuries and only broke camp once because the team felt compelled to carry a lefty. He’s essentially been a body to eat innings for the Astros in emergency situations, nothing more.

      You are aware that a Rosin Bag is behind every single mound in the league? Inside that bag is a refined extract from the pine tree.

    Translation: They wanted a 40-man roster spot, but didn’t want to expose Guduan to waivers.

      Believe me, there is no value for the team outside of eating emergency innings.
