Huh? Correa can be dinged for being fragile but he’s been an elite hitter in 7 of his 11 seasons, including 2024. He was a very good (122 wRC+)...
As a matter of principle I would listen on any prospect and always go for good value. But in conversations about potential trades I would...
Good stuff. The Astros should have an above average system below AA. They need to develop those guys and not trade them. The upcoming draft...
A lot of Conforto’s underlying numbers leave room for optimism. His batspeed is still there. His xwOBA last season was .330. He could still be...
They should just tell every infielder and Yordan they each have to play 25 games in LF.
Houston just needs to find 1200 really good pa from a group of 7 guys: Smith, Cole, Loperfido, Dezenzo, Meyers, Trammell, and Whitcomb. All of...
Houston should really not be trading anyone from the lower levels of their system. They need to stop the talent bleed. Trading Jaworsky and...
Braves need SP. Braves get: P Colton Gordon OF Taylor Trammell Astros get: OF Jurickson Profar $8M ($4M 2026, $4M 2027)
It’s 4 league average bats with excellent defense, a lot of power, a decent amount of steals, and a ton of strikeouts.
Brice Matthews is #58 and Ethan Pecko is #99 on Fangraphs ZIPS Top 100 list. I think Matthews’ ZIPS projections are pretty reasonable. They call...

If a trade doesn’t happen it will make Dana Brown’s behavior seem very odd to me. You don’t stand in front of your players with media within...
Where I think Paredes’ games will come from if nobody gets hurt: 50 games at 1B, 2B, 3B, and DH to give Walker/Altuve/Correa/Alvarez normal rest...
What makes you think they are moving Yordan to LF?
In the chat for this list, the FG prospect guys mentioned that Kevin Alvarez was in the mix to be on the Top 100, one of only 3-4 DSL guys to be...
Opinions vary. I am pretty bullish on the likelihood of at least one of Loperfido, Dezenzo, and Matthews emerging as a quality everyday player...
Fangraphs Top 100 is out. Houston does not have a prospect on the list. AL West shook out with: LA 2 Ath 2 TEX 5 Sea 7
https://astrosfuture.com/2026/01/three-astros-prospects-who-could-explode-in-2026/ Usually not a fan of Astros Future’s content but this article...
Yeah, Paredes is the team’s 2nd best hitter, he will play. I think a lot of the discussion on this topic is out of fan boredom. It’s pretty...
