Luis Baez is 2-2 with 2 doubles today…it’s the 3rd inning. Kid is looking legit. He doesn’t have Yordan Alvarez’s body type or total offensive...
I was bored this morning so I went thru the exercise of seeing how trading Pena/Meyers/Garcia/Gilbert/Arrighetti for Robert/Cease might impact the...
Makes absolutely no sense. Why would Chicago trade Robert for a guy with fewer years of control? The Cease part is less insane but still hard to...
2024 OF depth chart in my hypothetical (extremely unlikely) scenario: MLB: Tucker/Robert/Julks/Alvarez/Barber AAA:...
Pena/Meyers/Gilbert/Arrighetti/Garcia for Cease/Robert McCormick for Bellinger/Stroman Melton/Leon/Bielak for Barlow/Hernandez Playoff Roster: CF...
I like excitement, and acquiring both Cease and Robert would be the most exciting roster move Houston has made since at least the Verlander trade,...
I don't agree with the idea that the window is sure to close. Yes, the stars of today and yesterday will fade, but if Houston executes in their...
Things I believe: If Houston doesn't trade for a good OF bat, they will call up Drew Gilbert in September. If Houston doesn't trade for a SP,...
I don't think Dubon's trade value is much higher than it was entering the season. He's performed admirably in an everyday role but he already...
McCullers contract does look like a bad move so far, given by this point next season they will have paid him almost $51M for 47.2 ip. But he...
Looking back at my original offseason plan post, I was pretty close on what Haniger and Fulmer signed for and what the As got for Murphy. Who...
*edit, Tyler Whitaker is 20, oh well, the point stands
Astros All-Teenager Team: C Andrews Sosa, 18, 164 wRC+, DSL 1B Cristopfer Gonzalez, 17, 173 wRC+, DSL 2B Sandro Pereira, 17, 175 wRC+, DSL SS...
Here’s what I think the ultimate White Sox trade would look like: Astros get: CF Luis Robert SP Dylan Cease RP Aaron Bummer SS Tim Anderson...
Pretty amazing that Houston will have 5 players on Fangraphs top 50 trade value list (Yordan, Framber, Tucker, Pena, Brown), plus another player...
Lucky. Luis Baez for sure is their best prospect. Tyler Whitaker is a high ceiling player. Most of their pitchers have potential and would be...
I agree with all that, with the caveat that I don’t think Gilbert’s AA ops should factor into his value considering he’s been hurt and playing...
Wow what a great value. Dude must’ve really wanted to sign and possibly even presented a lower price to Houston to keep him local.
Both trade and signing. The smart money is on a team trading for Ohtani partially because they believe it will give them an advantage in signing...
