A poster on another site who claims to have a source in Houston’s front office is saying Framber is going to be traded to Baltimore or LA for...
Yamamoto signs with NY, Houston trades Framber to Toronto for a boatload of prospects, then the Astros outbid Pittsburgh for Yariel who goes on to...
An optimist’s view of 3 Astros prospects I believe were disproportionately affected by the COVID layoff: Jairo Solis: Commonly listed next to...
I’m assuming you’re joking. Attaching their #1 prospect to lose a high ceiling RP whose contract is only about $8M underwater from their already...

Neris is probably as likely to underperform as Montero. For all 3 of Houston’s bad contracts (Abreu, McCullers, Montero), the best bet is to roll...
I assume the pitching market is all waiting on Yamamoto. Montgomery and Snell rumors have been muted too. My guess is once Yamamoto signs you’ll...
Some interesting best tool rankings there: Best Hitter for Average: Will Wagner Best Power Hitter: Luis Baez Best Strike-Zone Discipline: Brice...

I’m not sure I agree. I would say Houston had roughly above average luck with their top draft picks, especially considering they picked in the...
I left Alvarez, McCullers, and Garcia out of my list of trade chips. If Houston decides to rebuild after 2025, they should have a lot of ammo....
I really appreciate the tenor of your response. Sadly, online bullying is pervasive enough that any adult engaging in social media should...
But there’s a key difference, when Houston started their rebuild in earnest in 2011, they had almost no big league trade chips outside of Pence...
Might be worth reviewing how the 2017 team was built and who the farm had at that time, as a way to judge what is really needed to start a run....
Actually quite the opposite (if you are referring to me, since the comment you replied to was originally directed at me). I teach my kids what...
What a shitty false equivalence. I would imagine any victim of rape would feel pretty offended by your comment. There is a gargantuan difference...
If Houston does trade Framber, my list of reasonable free agent replacements and the max I’d offer: Lucas Giolito: $70M/4yrs, backloaded, opt out...
Adding a hypothetical Framber trade, since Atlanta is known to be involved in Cease talks and we know Dana Brown knows their farm system really...
