Alcantara probably has the best chance to get better in Houston, Peralta is probably already maxed out. But all 3 would be fit replacements for...
Verlander would never sign up to follow an opener. One of his main goals is to get to 300 wins. If Blubaugh (or any other starting pitcher) is...
Blubaugh’s cap is probably around 150 ip. But that would probably only happen if he makes the opening day rotation and sticks healthy all year....
The next 9 months are going to define Dana Brown’s career as a GM. Between an offseason where he has significant resources to maneuver with,...

Totally agree. This offseason will tell us a lot about what Brown thinks of the 5 near-ready high ceiling/risk bats they have (Smith, Matthews,...
Matthews and Dubon are very different players. Dubon is a classic utility player: excellent defender across 7 positions, great clubhouse...
I don’t think Sanchez “stinks”. He didn’t produce as expected/hoped after the trade. But he’s a good hitter with some hints at potential for...
