In looking at the transaction log, I see the Astros signed 33 year old C Joe Hudson to a minor league deal. AAA depth but interesting as it...
Based on that, one really good prospect and one pretty good prospect.
Rodriguez: Cuban, FG Giants #22 prospect in 2022, up to 97 at that time. Pinto: Venezuelan FG Baltimore #43 prospect last year, recovering from...
Not sure who would be in on Framber but yes the market seems to be shaping up to help Houston be able to serve both the present and the future by...
I don’t know. It would certainly seem to top what the Padres got for 1 year of Soto. We’ll just have to see. For me personally I don’t think it...
2 seasons of Suzuki and 3 seasons of Paredes would be a great return for 1 season of Tucker. If that also included any one of Chicago’s top 7...
Ideal packages for Tucker: Yankees: Luis Gil, George Lombard Jr., Ben Rice Cubs: Cody Bellinger, Matt Shaw, Isaac Paredes, $ Phillies: Alec Bohm,...
Astros already have way too many strikeout-prone upside OF in the upper minors.
Gil, Rice, and Lombard would be a good return for Tucker. Houston gets a MoR SP, a controllable solid everyday 1B, and a top prospect. Adding...
The more I think about things the more I think that if Correa is at all being made available then Houston needs to go get him. His contract isn’t...
Alonso is a good player but at this point he is about as good as Yainer Diaz, if Diaz was 31 and limited to 1B. He will get paid, possibly even 9...
It’s a good package for Miami. Acosta is a good prospect and slotted in the middle of the Rangers top 10, An equivalent package might be...
There are really only 2 big free agents left: Burnes and Bregman. There’s a handful of other guys who may get good money, but none of them...
Yes, the cubs have a really good top end of their farm system. IF Matt Shaw is an MLB Top 30 prospect and actually reminds me of Bregman in some...
Digging deeper into Jorge Polanco, he’s had 4 of 9 seasons with xwOBA >.340 (Bregman projects for xwOBA of .342 next season). His EV 88, Max EV...
Fried to NYY $218M/8yrs
A “have to get creative” offseason: Out: Tucker, Blubaugh, Whitcomb, Framber, Pena, Caratini, Pressly, Meyers In: Correa, Bellinger, Shaw,...
The Soto trade from last year would be the comp. Padres got Michael King, who ended up being really good, and Drew Thorpe, a top 100 pitching...
Kjerstad/Mayo is a more straightforward star-for-elite-prospects trade. Those other 2 include MLB players and post-hype prospects who have very...
Hypothetical for the 2 teams Morosi mentioned as in on Tucker: Astros get: SS George Lombard Jr. IF/OF Oswaldo Cabrera OF Trent Grisham OF Brando...
