Astros only have team control over Marwin through 2017. I could see a possibility where Marwin is dealt (perhaps next year), then Bregman is a...
Is Drelich a professional sportswriter, or is he a 13 year old girl? Someone needs to tell him to retire the Twitter account.
It was a joke, dude. As was that "era."
You forgot the Kyle Lowry/Luis Scola iteration circa 2011. Maybe you have blocked those years out of your memory.
It was reported that the Astros offered $25M for four years after his 2014 season; $5M for each of his 2 arbitration years, and then $7.5M for...
The flipside to this is that the Astros, in theory, will be offering Castro a long term contract next year when he becomes a free agent. Not sure...
I keep hoping that Tucker has been practicing 1st base in the offseason, and proves to be serviceable at 1st base in spring training. I think...
Yep, will also be interesting if Fielder, Hamilton and Beltre all stay healthy and have solid years. Was surprised how well Fielder bounced back...
You do realize that Castro has had a better WAR than Lucroy 2 out of the last 3 years, right? Now I do think Lucroy is the better player, but...
Agree with this. And two years of Lucroy includes one year where we already have a serviceable catcher (i.e., Castro). While Lucroy would be an...
Stros carried 13 pitchers for most of last year, so it could be that there is no spot for Duffy and Tucker to compete for (that spot will go to a...
Agreed. And they've been talking to Correa for several months and working with him on his plea agreement, so I'm confident the first time the...
Colleagues/bosses would probably only be on the hook if they used the info that Correa stole. Some type of aiding and abetting charge. I'm...
so he told his colleagues at the Cardinals what he found. Interesting. That makes things more complicated for the Cardinals and for the commissioner.
Wondering if they are going to try him out as a lefty reliever to replace Perez. Sipp is the only lefty we have in the bullpen. Don't think...
Yeah, I'm not seeing this one. Gallardo will presumably cost almost as much as Kazmir, but his signing results in the loss of a draft pick and...
Curious, do people think that Lucroy is that much better than Castro to warrant dumping prospects to get him? I think he is marginally better,...
I'd be fine with Feldman as our no. 5, aside from his propensity for injuries. I assume they're planning on plugging in one of our AAAA pitchers...
$16M/year seems like a lot for a Feldman-type pitcher. Orioles also made him a qualifying offer which he rejected, so Marlins will have to...
Charges are still pending. He had a hearing two weeks ago to request permission from the court to travel out of state to meet with schools...
