An ideal season where Houston wins the World Series next year could look something like this in terms of regular season fwar: Alvarez 5.5 Pena 4.0...
I agree, but he’s not going to project for 5+ fwar, which was my (pretty arbitrary) criteria. He did put up MVP level stats in 2022 and 2024....
Doing a review of the 4 teams remaining, here’s how their regular season production broke down: Mariners: MVP caliber (5+ fwar) position players:...
$320M/11yrs
Didn’t know Rosario threw that hard. At 6’6” you’d think his velo would play up if he can get extra extension. One to watch. Mercedes has had...
Not too many OF that would be a surefire upgrade over Smith/Meyers/Cole/etc. Grisham Tucker Yastrzemski Mullins O’Hearn Ozuna Schwarber It...
My guess as to how much they’ll have to spend based on what they do: Tender errbody: $20M Non-tender fringier players: $30M Non-tender fringier...

I consider it highly unlikely that Espada or Brown will be fired, but other than those 2 any moves related to assistant coaches or other front...
If I had to boil down the offseason to a single task for Dana Brown, it would be this: figure out which 2 of the near-ready power/speed guys...
Joseph Sullivan replaced Zach Cole on the Arizona Fall League roster. Will be a chance for him to shine. P Derek True was also added. AFL play...
The transactions log now shows that Houston signed 8 new international prospects (6 pitchers and 2 infielders) on Sept 30th, so these releases...
Hot take for a change at each position: C: trade for Joey Bart and resign Caratini, then trade Yainer Diaz for pitching. 1B: Salary dump Walker...

Something odd on the transactions page yesterday, the Astros released 10 DSL players, 6 of whom were Venezuelan, most of whom just completed their...
