If the Astros are wanting him primarily for this year for $20MMish, then they are assuming he's going to be some semblance of his old self now. No...
Agree with the vast majority of what you said. But I'm not sure why people have given up on Meyers due to a major shoulder injury, while we're...
Congresspeople get hired by the private sector for their connections into government. Exxon hires an ex-congressman so the ex-congressman can...
That's fair, and I don't know follow the market enough to know how accurate this is, but if Nook's right: Cubs, Rays, Astros are the primary...
No one knows how much money Conforto will sign for. No one knows if he's even healthy enough to play. Someone will likely accept his price -...
These are exactly the type of FA the Astros should be chasing right now. Players that, if they don't pan out, don't really hamstring them. And...
The market has changed ... for now. It's also eating up everyone's payroll capacity. There are more players than there are needs, which means...

Also the same number as Andy Reid or Sean McVay or Mike Tomlin or John Harbaugh. I believe the only current HC in the NFL with more than 1 is...
I'm not sure I see why Denver is horrible. They have an elite defense and a supposedly elite QB who's a mess this year. Any coach who thinks they...
More than the Texans franchise.
Rams don't have a HC opening. Broncos have a top-3 defense this year, and that's with the offense being wretched. Russell Wilson is a mess this...
I agree it's the worst coaching job out there, and they will get the last pick of all the potential HC's. But they will choose someone dumb by...
Next year, the argument will be that no one wanted the job because the GM was on the hotseat and likely to be fired in a year, leaving the HC as a...
