Baez will probably be a left fielder only but he has a chance to be a really special bat. It’s amazing how quickly the farm can turn over. He...
In the unlikely event they actually do extend Tucker, my guess would be something like $240M/7yrs. That buys out 5 free agent years (so Crane can...
That was just a timeline of when I expect their top prospects to reach the majors if things go along normal development tracks. But no, I...
A 3 week IL stint for Abreu starting today wouldn’t be a bad thing. Get him a chance to get out of a slump, get Singleton 15 games / 50 pa to see...
I am trying to have faith that starting last year and probably thru to next year is the doldrums of working through having lost 4 top draft picks....
Still having Dirden at 9 is pretty crazy. Unless he’s been hiding an injury nobody has talked publicly about, he’s a very fringey prospect at...
Alex Santos II showing signs of life. Another good outing tonight and now his last 5 appearances have been pretty good: 19.2ip, 30k, 11bb, 15h,...
Does anyone know Singletons contract situation? I know he was previously released to free agency and his original big league contract is long...
Ullola, Blubaugh, and Knorr are 3 guys I think could really break out once they are able to move from Asheville to Corpus. Bellozo too to a...
Strong words there. Color me extremely skeptical.
I fully expect Barber and Corona to be protected; they are just too talented and their present skill set presents them as very likely capable of...
Houston’s Rule 5 class looked pretty weak coming into the season but quite a few guys have made a solid case to be protected: IF: Whitcomb OF:...
Hopefully his velo is still not peaked after his injury, for a guy like him another 1-2 ticks up could be a big deal.
Blair Henley looks to have rounded into form. His last 4 appearances have been great. Sleeper to help in Houston next season. And he may be a...
Esmil Valencia hit two triples this morning in his DSL game. Alberto Hernandez hit a HR in the FCL game. Both are big bonus international...
I expected him to hang around awhile as a bench bat, so he has been better than I expected. Hader and Nottingham were the only 2 players that...
It’ll be extremely interesting to see if Baker and Maldy are brought back next season. Those 2 sure do catch a lot of **** from fans. Would be...
JD Davis (84th) and Jake Rogers (90th) are the only former Astros among the top 100 in MLB in position player fwar. Gerrit Cole (10), Joe...
If Singleton weren’t the pick, Loperfido would have been my choice for 13th position player, assuming they aren’t intent on keeping 3 catchers....
OBP is not the whole story. A guy with premium up the middle defense who posts a .405 SLG is totally viable even with a .312 OBP. Drop that SLG...
