https://blogs.fangraphs.com/2026-top-50-mlb-free-agents/ Fangraphs released their top 50 FA list. Guys I think might be decent values for...
The more I look at the roster the more I think they can get by with what they have on offense (and can even stand to trade Walker and Meyers). I...
If it really is $12M/1yr then that’s a great deal. He’s a fine SP4. But ideally JV would be the 3rd SP they add. A rotation of something like...
Mildly surprised they are cutting bait with Corona and Leon. I take this as a good sign they feel optimistic about Kaleb Ort’s health.
Fangraphs appears to have updated their depth chart projections with the latest rosters. Here’s how Houston ranks (with notes): C 19th (should...
Solid everyday caliber player his first 3 seasons then lost the ability to barrel up the ball. Still, he can say without exaggerating that he was...
I am not certain either but I think you are wrong. The MLBTR article mentioned the cubs could still QO him and they usually have their stuff in...
Who knows how close they are on any trades. But they’ve gotta clear 5 spots this week. Garcia, Ort, and Rooney are 3. McCormick is probably...
The Jim Crane “**** it I’m getting me and Altuve another ring” offseason moves: Sign Dylan Cease $170M/6yrs, front loaded with opt outs Sign Luis...
Interesting but understandable from both sides. So he will end up somewhere between $57M/3yrs and $15M/1yr. It will be interesting if they give...
I think the Rays would probably do Rasmussen for Diaz and Melton. I’d probably do that deal.
I am assuming Hader’s injury is not significant. If I’m wrong about that and Houston can swindle another team in to taking him on then I’d be for...
Abreu showed me this season he’s not on Haden’s level. He is an elite elite setup man but appears to not be an elite closer. Still, overall I...
[MEDIA] Previously in MLB he was decent at generating weak contact but otherwise pretty mediocre. Signings like this will be huge if Houston...
Considering a farm system completely turns over an average of something like every 3.5 years, and Houston will essentially equal their bonus pool...
This is huge. If Houston gets a 2nd rounder for Framber, they may end up with one of the top 9-10 bonus pools in the league in the next draft.
Trading Hader would open a gaping hole at the back of the bullpen. He is not underwater at $57M/3yrs, so if they did trade him they should...
Categorizing what Dana Brown’s response should be when asked about trading each player on his roster: “He is not available”: Altuve, Correa,...
Fangraphs is still updating their depth chart projections but when it’s done I suspect the Astros will rank among the 10 best offenses in the...
ESPN writing off the 2026 Astros already: Whoa? Twenty-third? Well, start with the Astros' declining run differentials since 2022: plus-219,...
