Based on what it looks like the market is doing, I think getting Barlow and Hernandez from KC would be about the best move, provided it doesn’t...
I liked the Rangers pitching signings (Gray, Heaney, Eovaldi) but let’s not act like adding Semien, Seager, and DeGrom via free agency was some...
I would really like to see Dubin, Bielak, and Gage get a consistent opportunity in the bullpen. I think all 3 of those guys have a chance to be...
No they don’t. They’ve had 5 years to extend him, you think the chances of him re-signing go up now that he’s this close to free agency? The...
On the one hand, there is a strong argument to be made that it is never wise to trade away one of the 10 best players of all time no matter what...
Angels needlessly give up 2 of their top 20 prospects from their barren system.
Because I don’t have access to NEARLY the same type/volume of info that the Astros front office has. So essentially I’d have to either overrate...
He is pretty clearly Houston’s best pitching prospect right now. I personally don’t think that highly of him; I think he’s a future solid SP4 or...
Rough Houston equivalent for what the Jays gave up for Hicks would have been Spencer Arrighetti and Rhett Kouba. Steep for a rental RP with...
Yeah wtf is this b****-ass ****. Rangers are like Aggies, every once in a blue moon they have a decent season and get loud about it. But...
The rough equivalent of the Montgomery/Stratton return for Houston would have been Gilbert, Loperfido, and Misael Tamarez. I would not have...
Loperfido, Clifford, and Barber all out of the lineups today.
Rodriguez is a very good pitcher but both he and Lorenzen are rentals. I would really prefer Houston to add pitchers with multiple years of control.
I would not. I’d bump it down about $10M or make $10M of it bonuses based on pa or award incentives. But if he hits the way he has the last 60...
I find the idea that Jim Crane won’t pony up to trade for Verlander because he wants to save money to extend Tucker, Framber, Bregman, and Altuve...
The Dodgers and Blue Jays would be my guess. But really I think it’s either Houston or they keep him.

CJ Stubbs was promoted to AAA.
To me the equivalent of an Astros-Verlander trade would be Mets get only Drew Gilbert and cover $30M+ of Verlander’s remaining guaranteed money....
Wow again. The Rangers got an amazing deal.
