I would be shocked if he agreed to go to Baltimore. He lives in NY and has lived in Detroit and Houston. His wife has lived in LA in the past....
That is the least positive/confident I have seen that dude since he became GM. Looks like deadline stress for him shook right now.
Very interesting, only 20 and probably a guy that could’ve been a reasonable draft in the 8-10 round range. Will mark him to follow for sure....
Astros get: SP Justin Verlander (gets option guaranteed) IF/OF Jeff McNeil RP Brooks Raley RP David Robertson $30M Mets get: OF Drew Gilbert SP...
Dubon has been roughly equivalent to Pena as a SS over his career in terms of fielding % and UZR/150. I don’t think anyone should expect Dubon to...
I understand the logic but I would not want the Astros to give up Gilbert for Bednar. I could imagine being swayed if the Pirates threw in...
I was comparing to the Hader trade from last year, Bednar comes with 2 more years of control and the market has increased, but Hader was about as...
With the draft pick signing deadline today, I assume we will see a dozen or more guys released from the minors today or tomorrow. It’s kind of...
I like what I’ve seen from Kessinger, and while it would not be great to have to rely on them, I do think there’s a solid enough floor/ceiling...
Hypothetically: Astros get: RP David Bednar Pirates get: CF Jake Meyers RHP Brandon Bielak RHP Spencer Arrighetti RHP Forrest Whitley Pirates...
Because their lineup is weak/shallow, they don’t have any good prospects on the way in the next 2-3 years to fill the hole, there are no good 2B...

I think if the trade market stays the way it looks that Houston will have a relative advantage in that teams not wanting to engage in a true...
Probably, if he hadn’t gotten hurt.
At this point McCormick and Diaz should be treated as more valuable than Pena, but all 3 should be valued as controllable star players.
McCormick and Diaz are star players.
Looks like the clock finally struck midnight for Bielak. Couldn’t be worse timing.
These are the Astros tradeable assets whose value I think is peaking (so Houston should consider moving): Brandon Bielak, Corey Julks, Jacob...
Verlander, Bednar, and Bellinger would be the best realistic deadline I could possibly imagine.
LoL I am seriously worried that dude had a stroke before logging on.
