Dude let it go. They had Abreu and Singleton on the same roster, they can have Walker and Singleton on the same roster.
Astros should have $10M left to spend even if they don’t trade Pressly. OF options that should fit in that budget: Verdugo Winker Polanco Turner...
Probably but maybe not. He still has value as a bench bat who can hit righties. There was a place for him when the Astros had Abreu, there’s...
No, they won’t. They will only get a 4th rounder when Bregman signs, they lost a 2nd and 5th rounder for signing Walker.
There’s risk in this deal, as there was with Jose Abreu. I hate that it’s costing them a 2nd round pick and that’s where I think the negative...
RHP 3B Paredes good 2B Altuve good DH Alvarez great C Diaz good OF TBD 1B Singleton good OF Dezenzo average with upside OF McCormick average SS...
Agreed. He wouldn’t be the worst LF in Astros history but he has no business being converted to an everyday LF role. He will play 2B everyday...
If the Jays are looking to trade Bichette for a fringe Top 100 prospect and a healthy proven #3 SP with multiple years of control, they’d better...
Any 2 of the following would be great: Bregman Arenado Goldschmidt Pederson Turner, Canha, France, Verdugo, Winker, and Solano would be ok...
Astros get: IF Bo Bichette Blue Jays get: IF Mauricio Dubon P Forrest Whitley Bichette’s value is very hard to gauge because he’s coming off of...
BA’s org top 10’s and top 100’s can usually be found without a sub, you just can’t read their write-ups. An average of BA, BP, Fangraphs, and...
Just my own. Not a ton of thought put into it.
Out of boredom, the top 30 highest rated prospects of the Golden Era (2011-present): Carlos Correa Alex Bregman Kyle Tucker Forrest Whitley Mark...
I was only doing position players. Forrest Whitley Mark Appel Frances Martes Lance McCullers Jr. Hunter Brown Franklin Perez Jordan Lyles...
I will basically never have an issue with anybody the front office signs for <$30M. Those deals aren’t significant, even if several of them go...
Jeremy Pena is the only position player prospect in the last 5 years I can think of who might’ve been as highly regarded as Smith, but I would say...
I think he could be had for something like $14M/1yr plus maybe some incentives and/or 2nd year player option. Theres probably only 6-8 teams with...
Saw an interesting note in an article about Smith. He received a $5.1M bonus from the Cubs when he signed. The ENTIRE Astros draft bonus pool...
It’s not just the pick. It’s also that the player is going to be simply overpaid to begin with. Walker is not worth $70M plus the draft pick and...
I still think it’s possible Arenado goes to Houston. It would not surprise me if he just wants to wait until Bregman signs, not only to see which...
