Astros in hot pursuit of Blake Snell

The reason is because the fellas coming up from the minors are producing. And the level of production from the Astros minor league system isn’t the norm, especially when the Astros minor league system is thin according to every publication that grades the health of the major league teams pipelines.

Striking lightning in a bottle is a wonderful surprise, but to expect it repeated is out of the norm.

I’m glad the guys stepping into the ML club are playing legitimate big league ball.

 

The more pitching, the better.

 

Is that Joe Kelley?

 

I don't think Joe has that kind of movement.

 

I actually feel that the asking price for Snell is above what any club is willing to offer. The longer this carries on the more likely he lowers his price and goes with the Astros.

 

Not a great deal for the Giants. A lot of downside.

 

He wants to be a mercenary and choose his destination year after year.

 

Can we please still trade montero

 

Like Joel Osteen once said, **** em.

 

Montgomery it is lol....

 

Can we lock this up or change the name of the thread? “Astros in hot pursuit of a starting 5!”

 

Please don’t post Talkin horsecrap in here lol

 

Tax his ass, California.

 

Did Crane or Dana Brown know this was an option?

 

He was going to opt out either way

 

Go beat up on the dodgers

 

Right. But only paying $15 million this season would have avoided the tax burned that Crane was reluctant to pay.
