https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2023/09/astros-to-seek-fourth-option-season-for-forrest-whitley.html This would be huge for Whitley, although as a...
I didn’t say “average”, I said “above average”. In terms of the national publications/sites, yes, lacking any top 100 prospects will result in...
I want Yainer catching at least 60 games a season because his value is so much higher and he contributes so much more to lengthening the lineup...
He is a free agent this offseason. Would not mind at all if Houston signed him as a replacement for Maldy.
[SPOILER] With all the minor league seasons winding down I doubt the rankings will change much until next April. I plan on doing a positional...
Make or break series here.
I was hoping for Shawn Dubin or one of the lefties. But maybe Kuhnel will do something.
CJ is not a small guy. He’s 6’3” 210. His older brother Garrett is a little fella (listed at 5’10” 170 but having seen him up close he looks...
CJ Stubbs hit a HR (13) for Corpus tonight. He has been a model of inconsistency this season. His ops by month: April .833 May .393 June .705...
https://blogs.fangraphs.com/pondering-a-possible-pete-alonso-trade/ In that article is a table that shows Jose Abreu is currently projected to be...
I have been pretty encouraged by what I’ve seen from Singleton in his time with Houston this season. Thru 61 pa he has walked as much as he’s...
Houston has 10 position players locked in for next season. They will have to do something at catcher. That leaves 2 spots that I assume they...
We shouldn’t put too much weight on Loperfido’s defensive versatility/value. He is a good athlete and can be solidly average in the OF or 1B. He...
He’s toast. Horrible crime, hope if he is guilty that he is held accountable well beyond any baseball punishment. Secondary to that, what a blow...
Valente Bellozo was promoted to AA this week and is starting for the Hooks tonight. He is a pretty small kid 5’10” 170 lb and I don’t know much...
There are enough “high strikeout, 25+ homer power, 20+ SB speed, decent walk rate, average or better CF defense” guys in Houston’s system that one...
I would guess Houston would claim Giolito, Lopez, and Moore if they get to them. Jose Cisnero might be worth a flier too. Bader or Renfroe don’t...
It a club option that converts to a player option based on an inning theshold (that he’s passed) and passing a year-end physical. So assuming...
Hector Neris hasn’t been pitching that well. I’m starting to wonder if he might end up picking up his $8.5M option next season.
If Houstons current competitive window closes, it won’t be because they failed to sign their homegrown stars into their free agent years. It will...
