Mathews has not gotten my confidence yet. I want to see a consistent season from him defensively at one position and I am not sure 2nd base is the...
It is going to take a lot more than Duran to get Paredes, at least it should. Extending him is exactly what the Astros should be doing.
I currently have Janek as the #3 prospect in the Astros system. He may drop a few spots when I re-asses in the Spring but even then I do not...
Altuve's longevity and success are two different things. Nobody can effect his longevity but God. Success is only possible for him as a hitter,...
Trading Paredes would be a huge mistake. He will be needed to cover third base when Correa is injured.
You can not have it both ways. Alvarez can not be both worthless in trade and too valuable to trade. He still has value to trade but he is...
I do not give a f--- what Dana needs.
It is true that there can't be 2 DH only players on a team. The solution here is to trade one of them. My preference is to trade Alvarez. He has...
First choice to trade would be Correa, he adds nothing to the team, second would be Alvarez, he would return the most and clearing him from the...

Based on the fact that he has not been assigned to his position as Correa is there.
Correas contract is over 30 milllion a year for the next 3 seasons. He is 31 years old and declining in all aspects of his game. Paredes contract...
I do not expect to see Correa other than as a temporary fill in at SS in any future.
I like Forcucci a lot too. He is #2 on my current top 30 prospects list. I am in the middle of an update but he probably stays in the top 3 there...
Do not ignore the slope. His bat is fading, his power is declining, and his usefulness to the team is almost certain to follow. Hope I am wrong...
So what could the rest of the reason possibly be?
Correa was only added due to the injury to Paredes. Paredes' return makes Correa or Paredes extraneous in my opinion.
I would go after Lars Nootbaar for his 80 grade name alone.
I am hopeful that the Latin countries Politics can be turned from their destructive positions and baseball can be safely re established there....
I have been for extending Paredes for the past couple of seasons. Setting that aside Paredes usefulness for the 26 season is as the starting 3rd...
