After years of inepititude, they are finally over 0.500, so it may have worked out well. It might hurt opposing teams more than them since they...
Except for all the griping about Dusty every regular season, people have raved about his post-season managing the last 2 years. Whether pure luck...
And for a pitcher who wouldn't even start for the Astros in the playoffs - Snell would be behind VJ, Framber, Javier, and McCullers in whatever order.
For all the talk about how important it is to have a catcher than can hit, the one year that Boston actually won the World Series was the one year...
Whoever the pitchers want.
You think Soto would have cost "a little more" than ... Will Smith?
I don't think I understand the point of a mutual option. What are the odds that both a player and a team think a player is worth the same amount?...
He's hitting about the same as Yuli this year with a sub-0.700 OPS and worse than Chas. He might be a future piece of the puzzle if he can regain...

An example that proved completely untrue within 24 hours of your post. It's hard to fail that badly. That was my point.
Meanwhile, in 2021, Atlanta won the World Series with the super scary Will Smith and his 3+ ERA (37 saves, 6 blown saves) as closer. the 2020...
As dominant as Hader is, he's blown multiple critical games for Milwaukee in the playoffs and lost 2 of their 3 total postseason series. He blew...
The basic premise of moneyball is that you find value where other teams don't. If every bad team is tearing down their team for a rebuild, that...
What about on the Yordan, Pena, Framber, Javier, Garcia level? You know, non-superstar prospects that the front office knows are better and more...
