I think Bregman is their top priority…for now. I think they made what they consider their best and final offer, and they’re giving Bregman some...
Would carry some risk for sure. The lineup would likely be the best in the league against lefties, but unless Goldy really came back to life or...
The poor man’s offseason: Goldschmidt, Heaney, Conforto, Urshela; trade away Caratini, McCormick, and Pressly 2B Altuve RF Tucker DH Alvarez C...
MLBTR’s estimates seem more realistic. Estimates from their top 50 that I think would be good for Houston: Teoscar $60M/3yrs Kikuchi $60M/3yrs...
I’m not sure how this works so wondering if anybody has the answer. There are a bunch of milb veteran on the AAA roster with 7+ years of...
Martinez was a great find for Houston and saved their bacon a few times by eating innings. This bodes well for what Houston thinks of their other...
Penn Murfee claimed by the White Sox.
Only 27. Has had limited time in the majors but has been an average hitter against RHP. Might make a good platoon partner for Meyers or McCormick.
https://blogs.fangraphs.com/2025-top-50-mlb-free-agents/ I think there’s gonna be good value in the SP market, just depends on picking the right...
If they non-tender Urquidy and trade Caratini and Pressly, they should have the money and prospects to add 2 “good” players and 1 “complementary”...
I don’t see how he accepts that. He’s pretty clearly the 2nd best position player on the free agent market, and the guy in front of him is going...
Fangraphs has updated their depth chart projections to remove free agents and they have Houston as the 3rd best team in the league (3rd in...
Bellinger would allow Houston to essentially platoon Singleton and Meyers. He’s a good fit in that sense.
Price was included with Betts, if I recall. Price was pretty cooked so he was a bit of a detriment. I could be misremembering. Verdugo was a...
That was more of a salary dump for Boston with David Price iirc, but they didn’t get the right prospects back from LA. Verdugo was middling, Wong...
A thought I’ve been having is that if Houston wants to improve their long term outlook, they could just trade Framber, Pressly, and Tucker, sign...
https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/10/latest-on-the-cardinals-offseason-plans.html Learned in that article that both Contreras and Arenado have...
Robert is on the list. Duvall should be cheap.
Updated shopping list: 1. One or two elite bats: Bregman, Walker, Lowe, Contreras, Diaz, Rooker, Correa, Buxton, Robert, Bellinger, Arenado,...
Yes. If the Astros bring in a good 3B then there are plenty of scenarios where I makes sense to bring in an OF who can hit RHP in a platoon role....
