Pretty much cut from the same cloth.
There are 4 pitchers in a playoff rotation, so 4 aces would be beneficial. We won the WS because of pitching, so unless you really think Hunter...
I haven't heard anything about LMJ's flexor. Can you post a link?
We got 2 more seasons before Crane really needs to make some hard decisions. If we resign Altuve, Bregman and Pressly, there is no way we will be...
I never said he was a bad locker room guy, but he's not a great locker room guy. We really don't need him in the locker room consider how well we...
Meyers was a Click favorite. With Click gone, he will have to earn his position especially after how well Chas played in the playoffs. Meyers will...
Let's not overestimate Verlanders impact in the locker room. He's never been known as a locker room guy. He didn't really build strong...
I was sure he was going to get 18-20 million a year. Just thought it was for 2 years. Still a bargain if he mantains what he did this last year...
That was a down year for Abreu. He's essentially Brantley that has more power than Tucker.
His numbers went to **** after the sign stealing crackdown. I don't think it's a coincidence.
Yuli should retire an Astro.
There was nothing wrong with his power. The issue was launch angle. He hit a lot of line drives which is why he had lots of doubles.
I wouldn't consider top 10 in the league in average exit velocity and hitting the ball harder than Bryce Harper "struggling with velo".
If Vasquez was willing to split time, 7 million per year wouldn't be out of the question. He's an excellent defensive catcher.
Verlander was always going to meet with the Dodgers. He would be stupid not to. Crane has a number in his head for Verlander and it's high enough...
Nah. I don't think Abreu impacted a Verlander signing one bit. It may prevent us from resigning Brantley though unless he takes a discount.
I think he was going to get Abreu regardless of Verlander. We can't expect Yuli to magically turn it on again during the playoffs. Abreu is an...
And it was a down year for Abreu. The guy is a stud and his power numbers are all still there. His launch angle took a dive in 2022, which seems...
Abreu actually hits the ball very hard and still does. His lower homerun numbers were more to do with launch angle. He was top 15 in average exit...
Abreu was always the no brainer even for a slight over pay. 1st base check Great hitter check Doesn't strike out check Underperformed his...
