Yea I hate that we only have Altuve and the skeletal remains of Lance left from the first Championship But Crane is far from cheap
Yea let's not be tricked into thinking Gamel is a legit OF for a team with championship on it's mind If we get a little over a .700 OPS out of...
Yea I agree. I'm ok with Dubon/Meyers/Chas against a LHP, but against RHP even if Chas bounces back, it would be an awful OF. Not below average,...
I just don't think it's gonna happen unless we pulled off something big I don't think Crane agrees to go back into the tax for a middling...
Lol no, no it isn't Crane may have went from 6/156 to 6/160, but i'd be SHOCKED if he went from 26 million per year to 32 million per year....
Looking at how we stand in comparison to last year Out Tucker great production but played 78 games, so we lose half a season of Tucker Alex, .768...
Because he only took 14 million more per year?
Problem with that is any deal Brown and the front office comes up with has to go through Crane, and history says he ain't approving it for a mid...

The White Sox would be stupid to trade him right now. They will start the year with him and hope for health and production. MLB (pro sports in...
Even with their teams paying a lot of their contracts there is almost no way the Astros trade for one of those guys and not go into the tax I...
He probably even confuses himself sometimes
I have no doubt Alex is still considering Houston I have no idea how often Dana Brown, or media heads or whoever else talks to Alex But I do...
I don't disagree with this in general, but he certainly isn't someone we can just pencil in for 30 starts and know we are going to get quality...
That's pretty overrated in most cases. Michigan for instance has a 4.25% state income tax, 4.25% of 20 million is 850,000. Mass is 5% so a...
Eh I'm sure he "wants" to stay I'd be shocked if he took 156 million to play elsewhere The only player we have lost through the entire run that...
One of the great all-time Astros, and by all accounts a solid dude
